How it works

  1. 1

    Gather what you have

    Add a photo, record an interview, drop in a favourite recipe.

  2. 2

    The story engine

    Keepsake transcribes voices, handwriting and text, draws together your family records, then shapes the pieces into chapters of a life story — ready for you to edit, refine and make your own.

  3. 3

    Keepsake forever

    Enjoy and share your gallery of ancestor biographies enriched by trees, timelines, images and more.

“Whether our ancestors were crossing occupied France in disguise to reunite with a loved one, or building a sweet shop empire in 1920s Newcastle, we think their stories matter. That's why we built Keepsake.”

— Sarah & Sam
