Core pillars

Built for the way families actually remember.

Intelligent Generational Layout

No manual dragging or tangled lines. The layout engine automatically levels each generation in horizontal harmony.

Silhouette Privacy Masking

Public or guest links mask names and photos of living family members into anonymous silhouettes. Full details are revealed only to verified kin.

The Bloodline Rule

Direct family members can edit directly. Extended relatives submit change suggestions that administrators approve with one click.

Progressive Claiming

Invite cousins or uncles with a custom link or mobile number. They claim their existing spot in ten seconds.

How it works

Three steps, one afternoon.

01

Plant Your Root

Create your personal node and add your immediate family in under two minutes.

02

Invite Your Kin

Share secure claim links via WhatsApp, SMS, or email so relatives can claim their spot.

03

Watch History Bloom

Collaborate on shared memories, photos, and ancestral records with verified administrative controls.

Silhouette privacy

The same tree looks different depending on who is holding the link.

Living relatives are masked by default. Verified kin see the full record; anyone else sees structure without identity.
