WE ARE: NATURAL BORN
Audiobiography is the storytelling and "storysharing" platform built for everyone.
• Capture life history in first person audio
• Get started in seconds
• No ongoing fees or subscriptions
- Here's how it works -
We send an interview question every week to your loved one via email.
A new, engaging question lands in your loved one's inbox every week. This puts storytellers on memory lane and brings memories to the surface.
They tap a link in the email and record their answer in their own voice.
Inside the email is a link to the question. They click or tap the link, and record the answer in their own voice on any device. It's as easy as having a conversation. If they don't love the question we asked, they can answer a different one. Our software handles everything.
They can even add up to ten digital photos to every question to bring their story to life.
We do this every week for one year (or longer! There are no limits!)
Our journey is motivating and engaging. Your loved one can work ahead, add to, or change answers all year long, and work beyond the one year mark. There are no actual time limitations. Just a plan to keep storytellers engaged.
All recordings are compiled into a single playable podcast.
All recordings are automatically compiled into a single recording, just like a personal podcast. This is the story of their life, in their own voice. Their Audiobiography as it were :).
Their story is shared for generations.
Sharing an Audiobiography is easiest of all. There's no app for listeners to install, the story can be private or public, and it can be shared worldwide. All with the tap of a button. It can also be downloaded and made available on genealogical platforms either as a file or as a link to the hosted Audiobiography itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
I'm giving this as a gift. How do I deliver it?After you check out we email a unique link to start an Audiobiography. We also provide a digital gift card making it easy to print or pass along digitally. Your loved one simply scans to begin.
What happens when I order more than one?
The email we send after checkout (mentioned above) contains a unique link for each Audiobiography purchased.
Can I get this for myself?
Of course! Many users buy Audiobiography for themselves. It's the best gift a person can be given, and it's the best gift a person can give.
Can recordings be deleted and re-recorded?
Yes. You can delete and re-record as much as you'd like.
You send questions for a year, but can this happen faster or slower?
Yes. All questions are available from day one, and it's easy to get sucked in. We've found that weekly reminders really keep storytellers on track, so we've created a system that works. But we're built in a way to satisfy all the overachievers out there and also anyone who takes a lifetime to complete their Audiobiography. There are no time limitations whatsoever.
Where is the audio stored?
In the cloud. All audio is saved and played back from the cloud so it takes up no room on your device and can be done from anywhere. And you can download a backup of your entire audio story, including all photos added along the way, at any time from inside your account.
Can I backup the story?
Yes. Click the gear icon within the story inside your account, then click "download". All audio recordings are downloaded neatly into their own folders, along with all associated pictures. The whole process is clean and tidy, and we recommend backing up your story as often as you'd like.
How soon after purchasing will I receive the email with instructions to start?
Roughly immediately. A few minutes at the most. If you are experiencing any issues, check your spam or promotions folder. And you can always reach us at support@audiobiography.com for a fast response.
I've heard the audio version of the story is like a podcast?
Yes. Imagine a podcast that can be set to public (meaning anyone can listen) or private (meaning only those you allow can listen). When stories are recorded they live digitally for free on the Audiobiography.com platform. It's accessible worldwide to any connected device, no app required. Just tap podcast mode and listen to the entire story of someone you love on autoplay.

There's more to Audiobiography
Not long after we started capturing and sharing stories in audio, people began asking if we could add these stories to headstones. After another year of product development, we answered that question with the release of Memorial, shown below. Today Memorial is offered in Funeral Homes and Monument Shops across the country and more and more families are choosing to celebrate life with the story of their loved one attached right to their monument. Learn more about Memorial below.
Memorial
Bring those you love who have passed back to life with unlimited pictures, videos, text, and audio recordings, linked to their monument indefinitely with a durable QR tile. No subscriptions or fees and guaranteed for life. Memorial comes in nine styles to compliment any setting.
Content is viewed and added during visits to the memorial location, or remotely at any time, either from your phone or computer. Memorial keeps expanding to provide comfort and joy over time.
