I love this idea. I actually had an idea in a somewhat similar space. I'm pretty sure I'll never actually do it so I'll share.

I thought it would be cool to offer a service to store family history in some super long-lasting acrylic. Maybe laser etch binary into the block or something like that?

Oooh, like a family history version of Han Solo in carbonite :)

I do think the printed books give it some of that longevity. They may not last 1000 years, but I love the idea that someone's great-great-great-grandchild could read their stories a couple of hundred years from now.

yep, just like that lol. No doubt the book is a great idea, but I always saw the "carbonite" option as a high end option. Books for regular people, eternity for those who can afford it. Anyways, best of luck with your service, it really sounds great!

It this just available for iPhones? Or do you have a web app as well?

We actually started with a web app, and it's mobile-optimized enough that it should work without problem on an Android phone.

Storytellers can also use it entirely over email, and even over a landline!

How does this compare to Weeva?
