Record anywhere
Capture a conversation together, or invite someone to send a voice memory from wherever they are.
Record
Keep the way they tell it.
Record the laugh, the pause, the detail nobody else remembers. Golden Record makes a conversation easy to begin and turns every contribution into part of a life story.
The voice carries what writing cannot.
Facts tell us what happened. A voice gives us timing, character, mischief, doubt, and affection. Start with a phone on the table and one honest question. The record can grow from there.
Everything the story needs.
Ask better questions
Choose from guided prompts, build your own interview, and keep the follow-up questions that arrive in the moment.
Make every word useful
Create a transcript, add names and context, attach photographs, and find a moment again without scrubbing through an hour of audio.
Bring in every voice
Let siblings, cousins, friends, and colleagues contribute different chapters without handing over the whole archive.
Good stories rarely begin with ‘tell me your life story.’
Use thoughtful prompts for childhood, work, love, family, places, objects, traditions, and the ordinary routines that make someone unmistakable. Follow the unexpected turn instead of forcing a script.
A clear way through.
Choose a person or chapter
Begin with one person, one relationship, one place, or one story you do not want to lose.
Make room for the conversation
Use a prompt, put the phone down, and listen. A natural conversation is more valuable than a perfect interview.
Shape what you captured
Review the transcript, add context and photographs, and connect the recording to the people and moments it belongs with.
One question can open a whole life.
You do not need a production plan. You need a person, a little time, and a place to keep what comes back.
Begin with one story
