Rosie, your AI interviewer

Read what Rosie says

Hello, I'm Rosie. I'm an AI interviewer, and my job is to listen. You tell me about your life in your own words - the house you grew up in, the people who made you laugh - and I ask about the things you mention. Your stories become a book your family can keep for generations. You decide what goes in it. Whenever you're ready, I'd love to hear one.

What it feels like

This isn’t a questionnaire. It’s a conversation.

Rosie asks. You answer however you like. Then she asks about the thing you actually said.

Rosie

Tell me about the home you grew up in.

You

A row house on Ridge Street. Nine of us in four rooms. In winter my father banked the coal stove last thing at night…

Rosie

You remember him banking the stove. Was he always the last one up at night?

Follow-up questions find the stories nobody thinks to tell. Because Rosie asks about what you just said, you end up telling the memory a form would never have asked for.

Start anywhere. People find themselves telling Rosie about…

The mischief you got away with as a child
Where a family nickname came from
A friend you have not thought about in years
How the two of you met
The advice you would give a grandchild

Chapter Four

The House on Ridge Street

There were nine of us in four rooms, and I never once thought of it as small. In winter my father banked the coal stove last thing at night, and the last sound I heard was the scuttle going back down on the hearth.

My mother kept the good plates on the top shelf for company that almost never came. When they finally did come - my aunt from Cleveland, that one August - she used them all at once…

Read it

Your conversations become chapters of a written life story. You review and approve the wording; Rosie only helps organize it.

Watch it

After some topics, Rosie may invite you to record a short video for the family - the pause before the funny part, the way a name was said.

See it

Photographs, documents and videos sit alongside the stories behind them, in the storyteller’s own words.

The book is yours to download as a PDF, as often as you like, at no extra cost. Printed, bound copies are available as an optional purchase. See pricing.

Three simple steps

How MyLifeMemoir Works

Talk

Rosie asks about your life. You answer in your own words, at your own pace.

Remember

She remembers the people and places you mention and asks about them, so stories you have not thought about in years come back.

Keep

You review what is written. Your family reads it and keeps it.

See how it works, step by step

Who is the memoir for?

For me

Tell the stories you have collected over a lifetime - the ones your family half knows, and the ones nobody has heard.

Record your own life story →

For someone I love

You may know where your father grew up. Rosie asks the second question, and the third - the ones that turn “we lived on Ridge Street” into the winter he banked the stove every night.

How giving MyLifeMemoir works →

Or read about a mother’s story, a father’s, or a grandparent’s.

Giving it this Christmas? How to time it and hand it over on the day.

Carl B. Zacharia, founder of MyLifeMemoir

Who built this

An estate planning lawyer who kept hearing the same regret.

MyLifeMemoir was created by Carl B. Zacharia, its founder and Legacy Architect. He has practiced estate planning and elder law for more than 32 years, which put him in the room for thousands of family conversations about the end of a life.

What families grieved losing was rarely on the balance sheet. It was a parent’s stories, a grandparent’s memories, and the questions the children wished they had asked while there was still time. No will or trust captures any of that - so he built something that does.

Is Rosie a real person?

No. Rosie is an AI interviewer. She asks questions, remembers what you have told her, and helps arrange your answers into chapters. Nothing goes into your memoir until you have read it, and you can change any word.

Do I need to be good with computers?

No. You see one question at a time, in large type, read aloud, and you answer by talking. There is also a simple phone mode with almost nothing on the screen but the question and one button.
