Kindred Tales

Kindred Tales is a digital memoir platform designed to help families capture, organize, and preserve the life stories of loved ones. The tool guides users through a structured storytelling process using weekly prompts that cover themes such as childhood, family, work, relationships, and personal milestones. These prompts can be answered in writing or via audio, which Kindred Tales then transcribes automatically, reducing the effort required for those who prefer to speak rather than type.

At the core of the platform is Ali, an AI biographer that helps transform raw memories, transcripts, and responses into coherent, readable narrative chapters. Users can review, edit, and refine these drafts to ensure accuracy and personal voice. The system supports adding photos and contextual details, enabling the creation of rich, illustrated keepsake memoirs.
