The ritual
Designed for the person who has never opened an app.
Hearthkeep removes everything between your family and their stories. No accounts to manage, no menus to navigate. Just a question, a pause, and a voice.
- 01
A prompt arrives
Each week we send your family one carefully written question — by email, text, or printed postcard. The kind of question that makes a grandmother pause and smile before she answers.
“What was the first piece of music that made you cry?” - 02
They press record
No download, no signup gymnastics. A single link opens a quiet recording room. Speak for 30 seconds or 30 minutes. Pause, restart, or simply talk.
- 03
We transcribe & chapter
Hearthkeep gently transcribes the recording, suggests chapter titles, and highlights the moments worth coming back to. Nothing is shared outside your family.
- 04
It joins your library
Stories are organized by storyteller, theme, decade, and place. Search them like a book. Listen to them like a voicemail. Pass them down like an heirloom.
