When a grandchild is born, grandparents often realize there's a person who will know them only as 'old.' Heirloom captures grandparents' stories now — to be revealed to the grandchild when they're old enough to understand. Time-capsule messages can be locked until specific dates: 'Open on your 18th birthday.' Family Council format captures both grandparents together with the new parent.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I lock messages for future delivery?
Yes — time-capsule feature. Messages or sessions can be locked until specific dates ('open on your 18th birthday', 'open on your wedding day').
Will my grandchild be able to talk to my grandparent decades later?
Yes — that's the core promise. Family Council with voice clone (Avatar add-on) means your grandchild at age 30 can ask your grandparent (whose lifespan ended at age 95) any question and hear an answer in their voice.
How early should we start?
Within the first year of the grandchild's birth is ideal — captures grandparents while they're at full vitality.
Multi-grandparent capture?
Yes — Family Council supports unlimited storytellers. Both sets of grandparents can participate.
