The good questions

Family memory—in their words or yours.

Some visits are for listening—drawing out names, jokes, and chapters you never quite understood. Some are for telling your own, when you’re ready.

Corrido is for both: the same unhurried questions, whether you’re asking or answering. You only need to know which seat you’re in today.

When they’re the one talking

You bring the questions; they bring the memories—kitchen table, porch, or a call that runs long. You keep their voice for family, not for a crowd.

Before it scatters

The map in your head only gets you so far

Most of us carry scraps—a surname, a town once mentioned, a joke no one can explain anymore.

When the people who hold those threads are still at your table, curiosity has somewhere to land. When they’re not, the questions don’t disappear—they get harder to answer.

Corrido is for families who want more than a chart: who someone leaned on, what would make them laugh if they walked in now. You’re not collecting trivia—you’re leaving a clearer map for whoever inherits your stories, told or still waiting.

What paper can’t keep

The pause before the punchline

Voice keeps what transcripts miss: the laugh before the line, how they say a name, the rhythm of a story they’ve told a hundred times and still like telling.

  • How they sound when the room goes quiet
  • Pace and warmth—not just words

Record where you already are: couch, walk, long call. Save first; tidy later. A library for your people—not a stage for anyone else.

Where people land

A tree that remembers who belongs to whom

Genealogy can feel like homework. Most families want something simpler: who connects to whom, and whose stories overlap.

When that picture sits next to what people have said out loud, “Aunt Rosa” stops being a caption and becomes someone the next generation can find again.

Browse by person; see the stories tied to them—not a public pedigree. The tree grows as you do. The goal isn’t a perfect chart on day one; it’s one shared place for generational knowledge.

The same ritual in the app

Home, Record, and Library—one habit, three stops.

  • Home — Your family’s space: a prompt, a clear way to begin, and what you’ve captured lately.
  • Record — Say whose story it is, pick a path, then keep going at human speed.
  • Library — Stories and people in one place when someone asks, “What was that one about?”

Your space

The Ruiz family

Hey Alex — a quiet moment, a good question, and you’re off.

Sunday at Mom’s

Mar 2 · 4:12

Home

Your family title, a gentle prompt, and one clear way to begin—plus recent stories so nothing good sits out of reach.

Recording

Who will share their story?

We’ll help you choose a question that lets them speak at their own pace.

My story

Share from your own memories, in your own time.

Their story

Listen to a parent, grandparent, or someone you love.

Who is speaking?

Rosa Ruiz Grandmother · family member

Record

Choose my story or theirs, then who’s speaking—so the questions and pacing match the conversation you’re actually having.

Library

Find the stories your family is keeping

Browse by person, search across stories, or return to a favorite prompt.

Search stories, people, and prompts

How Dad met the train

Feb 18 · 6:40

Library

Search across stories and people, or skim what’s recent—the table conversation has a place to land after you’ve put the phones down.

What stays steady

Three through-lines—same whether you’re interviewing or answering.

Same ritual, two directions

You might ask the questions on Sunday and answer them yourself next month. The rhythm doesn’t change.

Questions that feel like talking

Written for real rooms, not for a perfect take. Stop when the story feels complete, and save without a test.

For family, not for followers

For cousins and kids at your table—not for strangers scrolling past.

Private beta

We’re inviting families in as we open more seats. Send a short note and we’ll reply with next steps when there’s room.

Request an invite

We read every message and follow up when we have room for another household.

Private by intention

Built for households, not audiences. Stories live in a space for relatives—passed like an album, not posted like a feed.

Questions

Do I have to pick only one role?

No. Interview someone one week; record your own answers another. Pick what fits the visit.

Is this only for parents and grandparents?

Any family member whose stories you want to keep—siblings, aunts and uncles, chosen family too.

What happens after I get into the beta?

We’ll send instructions to install the test build (e.g. TestFlight on iPhone). Then you create or join a family space and start from Home or Record—prompts first, details later.

Do I need a family tree before I record anything?

No. Start with one conversation; add people and links as you go. The tree gives stories a landing—not a gate.

Why audio instead of only text?

How someone tells a story is part of the story—pace, warmth, the laugh they can’t help. Voice keeps that; you can add text later.

Android or web?

iPhone-first today. Other platforms may follow; the focus stays on private family stories.
