The first time we realized the band might actually work.
A living archive of stories
Capture stories before they disappear.
Record short video or audio memories, invite someone else to add their version, and keep the moments that would otherwise fade into summary.
For your own life, family history, shared memories with friends, couples, mentors, and the people who helped shape you.
Why TimeThreads
Built for the stories people actually tell.
TimeThreads is designed for short, meaningful stories that can be recorded now, revisited later, and expanded by the people who were there too.
Short stories, not long interviews
Capture what matters in a few focused minutes, while the memory is still alive.
Ask someone else the same question
Send a prompt to a parent, partner, friend, mentor, or anyone who remembers it too.
Private by default
Stories stay on your phone until you decide to share them.
Share with a link
Send a beautiful playback page without making people fight through a login flow.
Build threads of memory
Collect multiple voices around the same moment, question, or chapter of life.
Who it's for
Anywhere memory matters.
The product starts with family history, but it is just as useful for friendships, relationships, mentors, collaborators, and your own story.
Your own life
Catch the stories you keep meaning to record before they blur into summary.
Parents and grandparents
Preserve firsthand stories while you can still ask the next question.
Friends and shared history
Reconstruct trips, bands, neighborhoods, school years, and turning points together.
Couples and families
Hold onto the small stories that explain how your life became your life.
Mentors and legacy
Keep the voice, perspective, and lessons you do not want reduced to notes.

FAQ
What people ask before they start.
Is it private?
Yes. Recording is local by default, and stories are only uploaded when you explicitly share them.
Is it only for families?
No. TimeThreads works for family history, friendships, couples, mentors, collaborators, and any shared memory worth keeping.
Can someone else add their version?
Yes. You can send the same question to someone else and collect multiple perspectives in one memory thread.
Do they need the app to view a shared story?
No. Shared stories open in a browser. The app is only needed if they want to record their own version.
Can I record audio only?
Yes. You can capture either audio or video, depending on the story and the moment.
How long should a story be?
Usually a few minutes. TimeThreads is built for short, vivid stories rather than long formal interviews.
