Northland HackathonEvery family has a story worth saving.
GrandStory uses AI to interview your loved ones and turn their memories into a beautiful, permanent keepsake — in just 5 minutes.
The problem we set out to solve: Every year, millions of family stories disappear forever. Not because families don't care — but because no one ever thinks to ask, or knows where to start.
“I remember the summer I met your grandfather at the market in Havana...”
What we built
Stories that would have been lost — now kept forever.
Our AI interviewer asks the questions families forget to ask. The result is a richly written narrative, a visual timeline, and an audio recording — all crafted automatically from a single conversation.
- Beautifully written narrative, not just a transcript
- Emotional journey timeline with key life moments
- Full audio recording of the conversation
- Downloadable as a PDF keepsake
