SEED Stories

Ask the questions
only they can answer.

Record a conversation or tell the story behind a photograph. Keep the words, the voice and the details that would otherwise live only in someone’s memory.

Early access SEED Stories is in development. Join early access for guided interviews, photo stories and transcripts connected to original recordings.

One photograph, a whole conversation

Who else was there?

Begin with a photograph and a simple question. A name leads to a place, a place to a story, and a familiar voice makes the memory personal.

A story with its source

Photograph and recorded conversation

Keep the original
The photograph and the full recording stay together.

A transcript helps you return to the right part of the conversation.
Add the details

Start with what matters.

You choose the material and the result. Your private vault keeps the original records together.

  1. Choose a starting point

    Bring a photograph, a period of life or a question you have always wanted to ask.

  2. Have a real conversation

    Use prompts when helpful, follow the interesting details and let the person tell the story in their own way.

  3. Keep and revisit it

    Review the transcript and connect the story to its photograph. Choose who can hear it or use it in a memoir.

Bring the right pieces.

  • A photograph, memory or interview topic
  • A recording made with the speaker’s permission

Your records. Your choices.

Keep their words as they were.

The original voice recording remains separate from any transcript or summary. You can preserve and share a story without giving permission to clone the speaker’s voice.

Ask before recording someone or sharing their personal story. Each person’s likeness, voice and private information deserves its own consideration.

Privacy and control

A few useful answers.

Is this only for older relatives?

No. Record a childhood memory, a friendship, a family tradition or something that happened yesterday. The value is in keeping the person’s perspective and context.

Can I use recordings I already have?

Existing recordings are part of the planned experience, where you have permission to use them. Preserve the original file alongside any transcript.

Does recording a voice create an avatar?

No. Preserving an original recording and generating new speech are separate choices. Stories does not automatically authorize an avatar.

Can these stories become a book?

Yes. Selected recordings, transcripts and photographs can become the material for SEED Memoir, with your review of the final writing.
