A memoir app for people who would rather talk

An autobiography written from conversation rather than typed into a blank document.

Most memoir and autobiography apps are writing tools. They give prompts, a text box and a deadline, and the writing is still yours to do. That suits people who enjoy writing. It stops most other people at the first page.

StoriedLife works the other way round. Eva, an AI biographer, holds a conversation, asks a follow-up when an answer opens something up, and writes each story afterwards. Speaking takes a fraction of the effort of writing, and people remember more out loud than they do on a page.

The result is a first-person life story in the storyteller's own words, with their recorded voice kept alongside each chapter, and a book that can be printed whenever they are ready.

How it works

Three steps, one conversation

01

They talk

A biographer called Eva asks a question, listens to the answer, and asks the next one based on what was just said.

02

Stories become chapters

Each conversation is written up as a finished story in the first person, in their own words.

03

The book comes together

Chapters, photographs and the recorded voice are laid out as a book you can read on screen or hold in your hands.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best app to write a memoir?

It depends on whether you want to do the writing. Most memoir apps give prompts and leave the writing to you. StoriedLife instead conducts a conversation and writes the chapters, which suits people who would rather talk than type.

Can AI write my autobiography?

AI can conduct the interview and write up what was said, which is what StoriedLife does. It should not invent anything: the value is in the storyteller's own words and memories being captured faithfully.

Is there an app that records life stories by voice?

Yes. StoriedLife keeps the recording alongside each written story, so the family can hear a story told as well as read it.

How much does a memoir app cost?

StoriedLife is $129.95 a year, covering unlimited conversations, the written stories and the digital book. Printed copies start at $49.
