stories worth saving.

A recipe with a history. The first day in a new country. The story my mom told me about her life. Preserve the memories you cherish, share them with family.

In their own way

A story can sound like them.
Or look like them.

Some memories are easiest to write. Others are better heard in a familiar voice or seen in a smile. Fireside Stories supports text, audio, video, and transcription so a story can take the shape that feels right.

Bring your family together in registered-member groups. Keep stories organized in collections, share a view with guests, or explore a collection as a PDF or book preview.

Before you begin

What can I save?

Stories can be created as text, audio, or video, and audio can be transcribed. The storyteller chooses how much to share.

How does family sharing work?

Registered members can be part of family groups. Guests can view stories shared with them; guest viewing does not require making a story public.

Can I organize stories for later?

Yes. Collections help bring related stories together, and the platform includes PDF exports and book previews.

What happens after 14 days?

The first 14 days include full access without a credit card. After that, the subscription is $9.99 per month. It is not a permanent free-storage plan.
