What it does

Eight things that matter — kept simple, kept private.

Shared family trees

Invite your relatives. Everyone sees the same tree and can contribute.

Photos & memories

Attach photos to each person so the faces stay with the names.

Birthday reminders

Family birthdays and anniversaries straight to your phone's calendar.

Interactive tree view

Pinch, zoom, and pan through generations with an interactive diagram.

Child photo protection

Children's photos and details are hidden from anyone you haven't approved.

Voice memories

Record stories by or about any person, with clean transcripts generated for you.

GEDCOM export

Your data stays yours. Export to the standard GEDCOM format any time.

Private by design

No ads, no tracking, no data sold. Only the people you invite can see your tree.

Names without voices are only half a tree

Rootkin holds the recordings behind the people. Capture stories from a phone — straight onto the person they're about — and they'll be there when the next generation asks.

By them, or about them.A grandparent telling their own story, or someone telling theirs.
Clean transcripts, automatically.Searchable, copy-pasteable text alongside every recording.
Tied to the tree.Every recording lives on the person it's about — never lost in a folder.

Three steps to start

You can have your first relative added before your tea goes cold.

Plant yourself

Add the basics — your name, a photo, your parents and any siblings. A few taps and you're rooted.

Branch out

Invite relatives. They join the same tree, add their own people, and contribute photos and stories.

Listen back

Record a story straight onto a person — or ask a relative to. Transcripts are made for you, automatically.
