Everything needed for a useful family tree website

Designed for visitors who want a fast, private, and easy way to map relationships without confusing genealogy software.

Add relatives quickly

Add a parent, partner, child, sibling, or standalone person from the editor. Link existing people when a family member is already in the tree.

Edit life details

Store name, gender, birth year/date, death year/date, and notes. The form is intentionally simple for non-technical users.

Export and backup

Download tree data as JSON, CSV, or a simple GEDCOM starter file. Print the visible tree layout directly from the browser.
