Legacy
Record your parent's stories while they can still tell them
Everyone means to. The stories about the war, the boat, the first job, how they met — "we should write those down." Then a year goes by. AIGriefBot's Legacy option is a guided interview, in their own words and voice, that becomes something your children and their children can sit down and talk to.
It works like a long, gentle conversation: fifty-odd questions across thirteen chapters — childhood, family, work, beliefs, the places they lived, hard-won lessons, messages to people not yet born. When an answer opens a door, the interviewer follows it. When a question isn't welcome, it waits. Answer three questions or all of them, over an afternoon or a year.
What you end up with is more than a recording. It's a companion that knows those stories, tells them the way they were told, and can introduce your grandmother to a grandchild who never met her — clearly as a recreation, in her voice, with her opinions. Kept in a vault for the family you choose.
How it works
01
Sit down together, or let them go alone
Some parents like doing it with a child asking. Some prefer privacy. Either works — the interview is the same.
02
Record the voice
A few minutes of them speaking, in the interview itself. That's enough for every story to be told in their voice, later.
03
Add photos and hand it on
The photo archive, the stories, the voice, and the finished companion go into the vault, released to the people you name.
What it can't do
- It can't replace being there for the stories. It's for the day you can't be.
- It won't invent anything they didn't say. Gaps stay gaps — honestly.
- It isn't a rush job. The best ones are built over months, a chapter at a time.

Ask about LegacyQuestions people ask
Is it a good gift?
It's the reason we built it. "We recorded Grandpa for his 75th" is exactly what it's for — giftable, and something the whole family can take part in.
What does it cost?
The Legacy Package is a one-time $299: the complete interview, photo archive, voice, and the companion, with the first year of vault storage included and $49 a year after. During early access, purchase is by arrangement — email us and a person will reply.
What if they're not comfortable with "AI"?
Most aren't, at first. It helps to frame it as what it is: a recorded interview that the family can ask questions of later. Nobody has to talk to anything they don't want to.
Who can access it afterwards?
Only the people you name. It's never public, never shared, and the family can delete it at any time.
