Storybooks

Life chapters that last. Not a daily prompt app.

Echo daily prompts are no longer the product. Capture lasting chapters in Storybooks — voice or text, invite someone to record, keep it private with your kin. Same membership as Vault and Family Tree.

Guided Storybooks

Stories that become a private family archive

A daily prompt for your invite-only circle — not a public feed. Included with Family Membership.

Life chapters

Organized chapters in voice or text. Invite someone to answer, or write your own.

Invite-only

Only the kin you invite. No strangers, no algorithm turning family into content.

Beside Storybooks

Storybooks live in the same membership as Vault and Family Tree — memory, documents, and who you are to each other in one private home.

I scroll back to last year's answers. That's the product.

How Storybooks work

A private archive of real voices over time.

Step 1

Your invite-only circle

Only the people you invite — no public feed, no strangers.

Step 2

A question lands each day

Small prompts that surface real life — not another infinite scroll.

Step 3

Answers become an archive

Over weeks and months you get a living record of how your people think and talk.

Step 4

Beside Storybooks

Daily life next to long-form memory — same membership, six seats.

How it works

Your group gets a prompt. Everyone answers in their own way.

Your group gets a shared starting point.

Echo removes the hardest part of sharing — knowing where to start. A specific question gives everyone something to respond to without performing for an audience or worrying about what to say.

Answer however feels right.

Text if you are on the train. Voice if you are driving. Short video if you want them to see your face. Every format stays inside your group. Nothing is posted publicly.

Keep it or share it.

Some Echo responses are for your group. Some are just for you. You decide on each one individually when you post it.

Storybooks are built for real families, not a public audience.

Receive reflections tailored to your lived experiences

Start with a guided book. Write or speak. Invite family when you are ready.

Context-aware suggestions based on your group, culture, or identity

Chapters fit who you are to each other — parent, sibling, partner, chosen family.

Prompts that evolve as you use Kinnect more

The more you add, the fuller the archive. Small chapters still matter.

From the first chapter, it feels like your family.

Start a Storybook with themes that fit real families. Answers stay private — text or voice — and build into an archive only your people can see.
