A keepsake archive your family can hold, hear, and pass on.

How LegacyFile works

The smart setup happens during creation. The finished archive can live on a USB drive or private webpage with no required monthly subscription.

1. Capture stories

Guided life-memory questions help record childhood stories, family traditions, career memories, advice, recipes, values, and major life moments.

2. Organize the archive

Stories are transcribed, cleaned up, grouped into chapters, and tagged by people, places, events, dates, and themes.

3. Explore later

Family members can search or ask questions and receive matching stories, audio clips, transcripts, and optional photo collections.

Designed to feel personal

LegacyFile is built around ownership, privacy, and the emotional details that make a family story worth saving.

Sample archive experience

In USB mode, the archive can feel conversational by matching questions to pre-tagged memories and offering follow-up prompts.

Sample tagged photo: Grandma in her first kitchen, 1968
Question: Grandma, what was your first kitchen like?
“Oh, it was barely big enough for two people. We had one little counter, a stove that ran hot, and a yellow table by the window. But that kitchen is where I learned to make Sunday sauce, where your grandpa and I planned our first Christmas, and where everyone somehow ended up standing whenever family came over.”
