How it works
- Start your 7 day free trial. No credit card needed.
- Add a few key life milestones. Start creating a story. Just get started — you can always edit or add to everything later.
- Invite Collaborators. You can do that immediately or do it later. After launch, up to 6 participants will be included in the cost of the basic plan. During beta, you can add any number free of charge.
- Later in the Beta, we will start to send you an email idea each week. Answer it yourself or forward it to someone else to tell the story.
5. Each email will have a special Start button. The Storyteller simply taps to start recording audio, video or adding text or pictures to create a story. No need to login. Storytellers in their 70s have found our storytelling technology intuitive and straightforward.
6. All Collaborators will receive a copy of the weekly email prompt sent to the storyteller.
7. Privately social

Our Key Goal for the Design of LifeTales
… Remove the barriers to getting it done
Make it easier.
- Writing stories can be slow and time-consuming. Use video, audio and text to tell stories. That way, more stories will be created, and they'll be created more easily.
- Straightforward and easy process for anyone of any age.
- No meticulous planning needed in advance. Create stories at any time, then place them at any time into the right chapter in the right order.
Make it better
- Video and audio create a fantastic memory and adds a tremendous amount of richness to each story.
- With multiple people commenting and retelling a story together, you can get more of the story.
- Get stories from other people too, like aunts, uncles, best friends to add even more color to the memoir
Make it motivating
- Privately social: Involve the family as it happens.
- The Storyteller feels great as they receive comments and likes as each story is written. Comments and likes become part of the memoir, to further add richness to the memoir.
- Receive ongoing requests for stories from the family. It shows they care and what they care about.
