Capture a source
A photograph, document, or recording is added as a source, with the people, places, and rough dates it shows attached to it.
Product
From a shoebox of sources to a Story you can follow.
Simply Stories connects sources, people, places, and moments, and gives a curator the final say on what belongs in the Story — so what your family knows for certain and what is still a guess never get mixed together.
Invite contributions
Family or community members you invite can add a memory, a correction, or another source, with the context behind it.
A curator reviews every claim
Nothing a contributor submits joins the Story automatically — a curator accepts it, asks for more context, or declines it.
Approved material joins a chapter
Once approved, a moment or source takes its place in a chapter, so the Story reads as a narrative your family can follow.
Under the hood
Your family’s Story, not a template’s.
A single family archive, a community’s founding history, a congregation’s record of the people who built it — the People, Places, Moments, and Chapters are yours to organize, and a curator decides what belongs in each one.
