Questions

Stories By keeps the voice of someone you love and turns their stories into a hardback book. They just talk. We do the rest.

You set it up for them. Each week they get a question on their phone, or they record whenever a memory comes back. Their voice is transcribed, shaped into a story you can read, and printed in a hardback with QR codes that play the original recording.

Not at all. They get a simple link. They tap it, see a question, and press record. No app to download, no account to create, nothing to type.

Life Story is one person telling their own story over time, like your dad's memories. Gathered By collects messages from lots of people as a surprise, like a birthday or retirement book.

That's up to you. Some families collect stories for a few weeks, others for months. When you're ready, we print and post the book, usually within 7 to 10 working days.

That's why we send questions. They're written the way I'd ask them in a documentary interview: small and specific. They can also just press record and talk about whatever's on their mind.

Yes. Recordings are stored securely, and only you, they and the family you invite can hear them. We never share or sell your stories, or use them to train anything. The privacy policy has the details.

Every story in the book has a small QR code beside it. Scan it with your phone and you hear the original recording, in their own voice.

It’s all on the pricing page. The first 20 families get the founding price.

Yes. Every recording is transcribed and shaped into a readable story. You can read and edit everything before the book goes to print.

In the UK, with Bookvault. Hardbacks printed to order and posted straight to you.
