How it works

From a conversation to your story, in five steps.

No script, no preparation, no writing. You talk; Quiddity listens and preserves — every word exactly as you said it.

  1. A man sits at a kitchen table, hands resting flat, looking up in recollection as a phone on a stand records him.

    A Biographer who asks the right questions

    You don't have to know where to start. Quiddity's AI Biographer interviews you in a warm, natural voice — no script, no preparation. It asks one question at a time, follows where you lead, and waits when you need to think. It asks; you talk.

    Your first conversation is a free five-minute warmup — no credit card required. Record from your browser, by phone, or by typing, whichever feels most natural.

  2. A woman sits at a table mid-sentence, gesturing as she speaks to a phone propped upright in front of her showing a live audio waveform.

    Your life, in your own words

    After each session, Quiddity extracts every story you told — verbatim, word for word, exactly as you said it. Nothing cleaned up, nothing rewritten. Each story becomes a card on your life timeline you can revisit, add to, and share on your own terms.

    Stories organize themselves into the chapters of a life — Origins, Family, Work, Beliefs, Love, Loss, Wisdom, Legacy — with your photos and videos alongside your words.

  3. A woman sits alone in an armchair, looking down at the phone in her hands with a fingertip poised over the screen.

    Share on your terms

    Every story starts private. Keep one just for you, open one to your family, hand one to a single person, or share one with everyone — you decide, story by story, and you can change it any time.

    Invite Guardians — family or close friends who share in the telling: they can add photos and videos to your stories and leave reactions. You decide, per Guardian, whether they can view your stories while you’re living. Recording for a parent instead? Choose the assisted option at signup: confirm you’re authorized to consent on their behalf, and build the archive together.

  4. Two women sit close together on a sofa, sharing a pair of wired earbuds and smiling as a recording plays on the phone one of them holds.

    The people who matter hear it

    The people you share with hear the story itself — your actual recording, in your actual voice, whenever they want to listen. Not a transcript, not a summary. The pauses, the laugh, the way you tell it.

    Every story keeps its own recording, cut from your session — not a re-creation, the actual take. Anyone you share with can press play and listen from any device, today or years from now.

  5. A silver-haired woman at a sunlit desk holds her phone in one hand, a finger hovering just above the screen, an open notebook beside her.

    A later chapter, when you choose

    Some stories are for now; some are for later. Legacy features are there when you want them — a voice Avatar that answers in your own words, and the option to close your archive as a finished book. Nothing happens unless you turn it on.

    The Avatar answers only with your verbatim words — it never invents or paraphrases. And the closing of an archive (Memorial Mode) is irreversible by design, enforced at the database layer; a QR poster lets the people you named visit the archive — and hear you — from anywhere.

Three ways in

Watch how people use Quiddity

Thirty seconds each. Sound on if you can — the narration is the walkthrough.

Set Up With Love

Read the narration

Some stories only come out when someone asks. You can set Quiddity up for someone you love — you handle the details, they just talk. A Biographer asks the questions. Your dad answers in his own voice. Every word he says is kept exactly as he said it. Nothing cleaned up. Nothing smoothed over. Just him. When he's ready, the archive is his.

For Yourself

Read the narration

You don't have to be old to have a life worth keeping. Once a week you sit down somewhere quiet, and Quiddity asks you something. You talk. It listens. It remembers what you said last time, so the story builds. No writing. No editing. No performance. Just your voice, kept exactly as you spoke it.

The Thing You Know

Read the narration

You know something nobody wrote down. Forty years of hands on the same work. How you read the water. What you learned the hard way. Quiddity asks the questions that get it out of you — and keeps every word the way you said it. Not a manual. Not a summary. The way you'd tell it to someone who asked.

The first five minutes are free.

Meet the Biographer, tell one small story, and hear what a preserved voice sounds like.
