Start Your Family Tree

Most family trees start with a few names, a shoebox of photos and a lot of questions. Tap the button, tell your AI what you already know, and it helps you write it down clearly and suggests the next places to look, one step at a time.

Your AI gets these words

Help me start a family tree. Ask me what I already know, then tell me what to write down and where to look next. Keep it short and simple. Use plain English.

Tip: Start with yourself and work backwards: parents, then grandparents. Ask your AI for "questions to ask my oldest relatives" and use them the next time you call or visit.

How It Works

  1. Tap the button. Your AI opens in a new tab.
  2. ChatGPT and Claude open with the words already typed. For Gemini or Copilot, we copy them: paste and press send.
  3. Answer its quick questions, or ask it to change anything.
I use Gemini, Claude or Copilot, not ChatGPT
Every button on this site will open it.

Good to know: AI can suggest where to look, but it can't look up your relatives for you, and it may guess wrong about names and dates. Check facts against real records like birth certificates, census records or family papers.
