Preserve your life story

Start with one memory. See your story take shape.

Start anywhere with a voice note, a few words, a photo, or a short video. MeldLife helps place it in your timeline, show how moments connect, and shape it into readable chapters.

Watch memories gather on a timeline and see how they connect

Memories do not arrive in order. MeldLife helps place each one in time and show how people, places, and moments link together in your story.

Learning to Ride a Bike

I remember the wobble more than the fall. My dad running behind me, letting go without telling me. I only realised I was cycling alone when I heard him cheering from further down the road.

Readable, narrative prose

Chapter 4: The Years in London

The flat on Clapham High Street was never warm enough in winter, but nobody cared much. There were three of us sharing two bedrooms and a kitchen that smelled faintly of the previous tenants. Those first years felt less like a chapter and more like a rough draft - full of crossed-out passages and things written in the margins.

Generated from 6 voice notes and 4 photos

Each chapter is built from your own memories. You can edit every word before anything is saved or shared.

What makes MeldLife different

Most tools ask you to write. We accept your memories however they arrive.

Start anywhere

Memories do not come in order. MeldLife is built for that.

Add a memory from 1978 today, one from 1995 tomorrow. The MeldLife engine works out where each one belongs. You never need to start at the beginning.

Any format, any device

Voice notes, photos, video, text, or documents. All accepted.

Most memories start as a voice note or a photo on your phone. MeldLife handles all of them. No scanning, no transcription work on your end.

From fragments to chapters

The MeldLife engine turns scattered pieces into readable prose.

Once your timeline has enough to work with, you can generate chapters written in plain, readable language. You review and edit every word before anything is saved or shared.

Three steps to a life story

No writing ability needed. No timeline knowledge needed. Just your memories, as they come to you.

01

Share what comes to mind

Voice notes, photos, text, or video - in any order, whenever you want. There is no blank page and no pressure to start at the beginning.

We help build your timeline

The MeldLife engine places each memory, extracts dates where it can, and asks gentle questions when it needs your help to fill gaps or resolve order.

You are not alone in wondering

Common worries, honest answers

My parent will not sit down to write
They do not need to. A short voice recording or a quick conversation works just as well. You can even type notes for them while they talk.
I do not know where to start
You do not need to start at the beginning. One memory from any point in life is enough. More get added over time.
I worry it will become an unfinished project
There is no deadline. The archive grows whenever you add something, even if that is once a year. Nothing expires.
Is this too technical for an older relative?
MeldLife is built for people who are not comfortable with apps. Large text, simple choices, no hidden menus or technical steps.

Two paths, one place

Is this for you, or for someone you love?

MeldLife works for both. You can change direction later.
