Your family's stories that nobody has written down yet

Give someone you love the book of their life.

The perfect gift for parents and grandparents, and a gift for the whole family too. So that their stories, memories and anecdotes last forever.

A young woman hands her grandmother a green hardback book with her portrait on the cover; both are smiling in the living room.

Some questions we always leave for another day.

How they met. What their street sounded like when they were little. How they felt the day their first child was born. These are stories that live in a single memory and almost never find their moment.

This gift creates that moment: one question a week, no rush, in the chat they already use every day. And everything they share ends up in a book you can hold, give and read aloud.

An older woman smiles as she records a voice note on her phone, sitting at her kitchen table next to a cup of coffee.

How it works

We prepare the questions. They just have to answer.

Four steps, over the course of a year.

01

We generate the questions

You and the family can pick from our selection by theme or write your own. You can add a photo to spark the memory.

02

It arrives on WhatsApp

One question every week, in the chat they already know. Nothing to download and no passwords to remember.

03

They answer their way

In writing or with a voice note. An AI interviewer asks follow-up questions so that every story is complete. If they don't reply, we message them again the next day.

04

They receive their book

After 52 weeks, we lay out their stories and photos in a hardback book and send it to their home.

The questions are chosen by you, the people who know them best.

Choose from ready-made questions by theme (childhood, youth, love, work, places, family) or write your own. Add an old photo to any question: sometimes a picture brings back memories that had been tucked away for years.

  • Invite siblings, cousins or grandchildren to suggest their own questions.
  • Add photos to the questions: they will appear in the book too.

A conversation, not a form

Every answer opens the door to a fuller story.

When they reply, an AI interviewer reads or listens to what they've shared and gently asks one or two more questions: who was there, what that kitchen smelt like, what happened next. That's how a short answer becomes a chapter.

What they say in a voice note
2:14

“Well, the house was made of stone, with a courtyard and an enormous fig tree. In summer my father would sit there after lunch and I'd sit next to him. He'd tell me about the time he was in France, at the grape harvest... and I believed every word, you know.”

The interviewer asks Do you remember any of those stories about France your father used to tell you?
Chapter 3 · The village house
The fig tree

The house was made of stone, with a courtyard and an enormous fig tree. In summer, my father would sit in its shade after lunch, and I would sit next to him.

He'd tell me about the time he was in France, at the grape harvest, and I believed every word, you know. Years later I found out that some of those stories were true.

Writing or talking

If writing is hard for them, a voice note is all it takes. We transcribe it.

At their own pace

Just one question a week. They answer whenever suits them, in the same chat.

Their words, their memories

We tidy and polish the text so it reads well, but we don't make anything up: every story is theirs.

The book

A book to read aloud, and to keep forever.

At the end of the year we gather all their answers and the photos you've shared, and turn them into a beautifully made book, meant to be passed from hand to hand between children and grandchildren.

“I love hearing the stories my father and mother tell about themselves and about the family, and I worried I wouldn't remember them well enough to tell them to my daughter. That's why I created "El libro de tu vida".”

Their memories are theirs

Their messages and voice notes are only used to create their book. We don't sell or share them.

Nothing made up

The AI asks questions and helps put things in order. The stories, names and memories are the ones they tell.

30 days to change your mind

If you're not happy within the first month, we'll give you your money back.

A real person replies

Write to us whenever you like and we'll answer ourselves, not an automated system.

Frequently asked questions

Do they need to be good with their phone?

If they use WhatsApp, they already know everything they need. There's nothing to install: we message them in a chat and they reply just as they would to any family member, in writing or with a voice note. If they don't use WhatsApp, we can send the questions to any phone number you give us.

Who chooses the questions?

You do, along with the rest of the family if you invite them. You can leave the questions on automatic, pick from our selection by theme or write your own, and add a photo to any of them.

Does the AI change what they say?

No. The interviewer asks follow-up questions so the story is complete, and then we tidy and polish the text so it reads well. But the facts, names and memories are exactly theirs.

How long does it last and when does the book arrive?

The experience lasts a year: 52 questions, one a week. When it ends, we lay out the book, print it and send it to your home.

If I'm buying it as a gift, is there something physical I can hand over on the day?

Yes. Because the book is written over the course of the year, you won't have it in your hands on the day. That's why, when you buy, we send you a PDF with a gift card ready to print, so you can hand it over on the day.

What's the difference between the two plans?

The experience is the same with both. With the digital edition (€49) you receive their book in digital format; with the printed book (€99) you also receive a colour hardback copy, with delivery included.

What happens to their messages and voice notes?

We only use them to create their book. We don't sell them or share them with third parties, and you can ask us to delete them whenever you like.

This year, start the book you'll read for a lifetime.

Every question you ask them today is a story your children and grandchildren will be able to read tomorrow.
