A biographer in your pocket
Just talk about your life. Your personal AI biographer will help you turn your memories into a beautifully written book.
No account or card needed to begin. One conversation, one sample chapter.
From a conversation to a chapter
An illustration of how one exchange becomes a passage. The chapter uses only what was said.
Your biographer
Tell me about the neighborhood where you grew up.
You, speaking
Well, we lived on a small street outside Utica. My father worked nights, so, you know, we didn’t see him much during the week.
Your biographer
What do you remember about the times when your father was home?
You, speaking
Sundays. He’d sleep till noon and then he’d take my brother and me down to the canal to fish. He never said much. But he always let us bait our own hooks.
Chapter One
We lived on a small street outside Utica. My father worked nights, so we didn’t see him much during the week.
Sundays were different. He would sleep until noon, and then he would take my brother and me down to the canal to fish. He never said much, but he always let us bait our own hooks.
Every paragraph stays linked to the interview it came from, so you can always check it against your own words.
1
Have a spoken conversation, record an answer, or type. Your biographer asks one question at a time, follows the details that matter, and remembers what you told it last week.
2
After each conversation your chapters grow. Read them, correct them, move things around. Nothing you edit is ever overwritten without your say-so.
3
Add photographs, invite family to ask questions, choose a design, and download a properly typeset book.
Plenty of software can produce a moving paragraph about a childhood. That is not the same as yours. PocketBiographer is built to be a faithful biographer and editor, not an author of invented scenes.
No added dialogue, weather, feelings or events. If you said your first job was in a grocery store, the book says that, well.
“1967, or maybe 1968” is recorded as exactly that until you decide otherwise.
Choose a writing style, and keep your original recordings alongside the written book if you wish.
The editorial review points things out and asks. It never quietly changes your book.
For a parent or grandparent
Give a life story as a gift. They talk at their own pace, on a tablet or a computer, with large text and a single clear button. You can send questions you would love them to answer; they decide what goes in the book.
