You have a conversation with Guida by voice, video, or text. She asks thoughtful questions and follows your lead. You can review, re-record, or edit your responses at any time. When you are done, your words are automatically transformed into a polished written chapter.

Not at all. Just press record and talk naturally — like having a conversation with a friend. Prefer typing? You can do that too. You can also re-record or edit anything before it's sent. Guida handles everything else.

Memoira is completely free during early access — no credit card required, no time limit, all features included. We'll introduce affordable plans later, but early access users will always get a special deal. You'll never lose access to the stories you've already created.

Your stories are private by default — only you can see them. You decide who to invite and what they can do. Contributors can add memories, suggest edits, and upload photos. Readers can read, comment, and react. Only you can interview, edit chapters, manage access, and change visibility. The original conversation, audio, and video are only accessible to you. Nobody sees drafts except you.

Yes. Your data is encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS), hosted on European servers under GDPR protection. We will never read your stories, sell your data, or use it to train AI models. You can export all your data or delete your account at any time. If Memoira ever shuts down, you'll get 90 days notice and a full data export. Learn more on our Security page.

Yes, you have full control. You can edit any chapter's title, content, and summary. If you delete a chapter, it goes to a 30-day trash — you can restore it anytime within that window. You can also export your entire story as a beautifully formatted PDF book, download all your data, or delete your account whenever you wish.

Yes! From your story page, tap the book icon to export a beautifully formatted PDF — complete with a cover page, table of contents, AI-written introduction, your photos, and all your chapters. You choose which chapters to include, the order, and can even add a dedication. It's free during early access.

You can choose one or two successors from your story's circle in your story settings — they'll be notified right away. If you pass away, your successor can activate Memorial Mode by confirming your name. New interviews stop, your successor takes over management, and everyone in your circle keeps read-only access to all stories, photos, and recordings. Everything can be exported or printed as a book at any time.

Memoira is fully available in English and French — including the AI interviews, generated stories, and the entire interface. More languages are coming soon.

Memoira works on any device through your browser — phone, tablet, or computer. No download needed. Dedicated iOS and Android apps are on our roadmap.

Yes. In Settings, you can choose Guida's tone: Warm & Gentle (patient and nurturing), Friendly & Casual (like catching up with a friend), or Structured & Professional (organized and methodical). This changes how she speaks — not what she asks. You can switch anytime.

Guida is named after the founder's mother. In a product built to preserve family stories, it felt right to have them guided by a mother's spirit. You can customize how she speaks with you — choose between warm, casual, or professional tone in Settings.
