Life Story Compiler
Your life is a story worth telling — and worth reading.
Life Story Compiler helps you capture memories by voice, text, or photo, then turns them into a memoir your family can keep. Unlike a journaling app, it builds toward finished things: a printed book, a Heartwood family tree, and a Living Legacy Twin that carries your stories forward. An AES-256 encrypted Legacy Vault and a Continuity Plan keep it protected for the people you choose. On iOS, Android, and web. Built by a solo founder after 25+ years of teaching.
Hi Product Hunt! I'm Chris, the solo founder behind Life Story Compiler.
I've spent 25+ years in education including curriculum development and web design.
I created the Life Story Compiler Platform because my grandfather, who worked on Admiral Halsey's personal staff throughout World War II left my family and I one of the most important World War II collections in existence. (https://www.facebook.com/WorldWa...) I have spent decades researching the items and writing a massive multivolume book on my grandfather's War experiences.
I wish there was a way that I could go back and speak to him or hear his stories. Well, this is how I developed Life Story Compiler. Today, a person can record their message, have AI transcribe video and audio chats, and future family members can search the family member's memories that are stored for family legacy. I built a massive platform that will even take a user's memories and populate them in a user's own 2D and 3D universe surrounded by other users and family members within that universe. It is spectacular!
I also made the platform offer the users the ability to share revenues for just sharing their life stories.
Most people mean to write their story down and never do, because a blank page is intimidating. So the app does the heavy lifting:
- Capture a memory by talking, typing, or adding a photo
- AI helps shape those fragments into readable chapters
- Order it as a printed book
- Build a Heartwood family tree around the stories
- Keep important documents and messages in an encrypted Legacy Vault
I built the platform 100% solo. It's now live on iOS, Android, and the web.
I'd love your honest feedback, especially on two things:
1. Is it clear in the first minute what you'd end up with?
2. What would make you actually finish your story, or a parent's?
I'll be here all day answering questions. Thank you for taking a look. I appreciate the positivity and help getting the word out. I want to continue this platform; making it bigger and better helping people remember who their family members were in their own words and real memories.
