Part 1 - Assess
Get ready to make discoveries! Check off the records you have and organize them in minutes. See where you have gaps and enjoy new ways to analyze your research.
Part 2 - Strategize
Learn exactly what records exist and where to find them. Develop your custom research plan to navigate quickly and thoroughly. Find unique records and hidden gems for your family tree.
Part 3 - Collaborate
Join a community of other genealogists actively working on their family trees. Get feedback on your research plans and share your latest finds with people who care. Connect and make new genealogy friends.
Part 4 - Share
Capture what you have discovered and write the story to share with family and friends. Use the latest in AI technology to go from blank page to first draft in minutes, rather than hours.
Stop searching around the internet.
Finally make progress in your genealogy in 2024.
The Truth About Genealogy
"Everything is Just a Few Clicks Away"
Not all records are digitized and some of the most valuable records for your research are in local archives or not easy to search online.
"Expertise is Required"
Genealogy is for everyone. No degrees or credentials are required to do good research. You are the expert in your family history.
"DNA Should Solve Everything"
DNA can help confirm your genealogy, but you still need historical documents. Learn how to use DNA to further your research and connect to new record sources.
