How Heirloy Works
A gentle journey from first question to family keepsake
Select Your Story Mode
Pick the journey that fits: Elder Life Story, Wedding Story, Founder Journey, and more. Then tell us about your storyteller: their name, your relationship, and how to reach them.
Takes about 2 minutes
They Get Their First Question
Eli, our friendly guide, sends them a warm welcome and their first thoughtful question. They respond however they're most comfortable: typing, voice notes, or photos.
Via WhatsApp or a private web chat link
Daily Conversations Unfold
Each day, Eli asks a new question that builds on what they've already shared. It feels like a real conversation. Eli listens, asks follow-ups, and never rushes. Over 30 sessions, a full life story takes shape.
One session per day by default, or faster if they prefer
Family Adds Photos & Memories
While the sessions are underway, you and your family can upload photos, documents, and your own memories to enrich the story. Everything gets woven into the final keepsake.
From your dashboard. Invite other family members too
All Sessions Complete
When the journey wraps up, we let you know. You can review all conversations, photos, and voice notes in your dashboard. Everything is saved and ready.
You'll get an email when it's done
Choose Your Keepsake
Transform their story into a beautiful digital flipbook, video memoir, or printed hardcover book. The conversations are always free. You only pay when you're ready for the finished product.

Questions that unlock memories
Eli asks the kinds of questions that spark meaningful stories.
"What did your home look like when you were a child? Can you describe a room you remember well?"
"Who was the person who most influenced who you've become?"
"What's a moment in your life when everything changed?"
"If you could give your grandchildren one piece of advice, what would it be?"
