Unlike competitors, Reminiscely lets you either record a video first or write your response first and use it as a teleprompter. Video-first answers are automatically transcribed into beautiful, readable text.

Independently Owned, Not Investor-Driven

Reminiscely is independently owned, so we work for families — not shareholders. It's a more human approach that's aligned with the spirit of meaningful, intimate storytelling.

Built with Modern Tech

We use the latest tools to create a fast, intuitive, and secure experience for both you and your loved ones. By default, your stories are private.

And your printed book? That's a lasting keepsake your family can hold onto for generations, no matter what the future holds.

Absolutely. We built Reminiscely to be simple for everyone, especially older adults.

There are no apps to install, no passwords to remember, and no confusing steps. Each week, your storyteller receives a link by email with their latest prompt. All they have to do is click it and start recording.

Even storytellers in their 90s use Reminiscely with ease. If your loved one can open an email or answer a video call, they'll feel right at home. And if they ever need help, we're always here to support them.
