Their stories, in their own voice.
Some of the best things in a family are never written down. The wisdom at the kitchen table. The recipe made without thinking. The song in the hallway, the traditions that made holidays and birthdays special. Thread & Keep helps you ask. Someone you love feels heard immediately, the whole family gets to listen, and their stories are kept for good.
Time well spent.
How it works
Three small steps.
One
Begin.
You set up the app for the person whose stories you'd like to keep: a parent, a grandparent, a dear friend. Then invite family to join.
Two
Listen.
Your Storyteller receives a simple version of the app. It sends a question at times you've agreed together. They press a button and talk. They can listen back, and when they're happy, their words are saved.
Three
Keep and share.
Their recording comes back to you. The app helps you shape it into a keepsake, their words set against images and sound. Share it with the family. They can watch, and send the Storyteller their reflections and thanks.

The app
One question. One big button.
That is the whole screen. Nothing to learn, nothing to set up on their side. A grandchild can use it. A grandparent will like it.
Later
Books, recipes, traditions, timelines.
The questions come first. From what a family says, we will make more over time: a book to hold, the recipes written down, the traditions kept, and a timeline of a life. None of these are ready yet. We will tell you when they are.
