How Willow Works
Willow helps you turn family conversations into a biography you can keep forever. Here’s how it works.
1. Start a story
Sign up and tell us who the story is about – a parent, grandparent, or anyone whose life is worth capturing. Pick from guided interview themes or create your own. No experience needed.
2. Have the conversation
Use Willow’s guided prompts to start a real conversation. Record it on your phone or through the app – Willow transcribes everything automatically. Go at your own pace. One conversation or twenty, it’s up to you.
3. Invite the family
Share a link with siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles – anyone who has a story to add. They can contribute photos, written memories, or answer guided questions. No account needed for guests.
4. Watch the story come together
Willow organises everything into a timeline: stories, photos, quotes, and family history. Edit and rearrange as you like. The AI helps surface connections and fill in gaps, but the voice is always yours.
5. Share and preserve
When you’re ready, share the biography as a private website your family can visit anytime. Want something to hold? Order a professionally printed book or download an eBook.
