Origin Circle — first 25 families

Her stories are still here. The chance to ask isn't forever.

HiClotho asks your parents and grandparents the questions you keep meaning to ask, out loud, in their language, in their own voice. Private to your family, never used to train AI.

For the first 25 families, locked for life. Nothing to pay today.

You mean to ask about the village they grew up in, how they met, the year everything changed. Then one day the chance is gone, and what's left is a photo with no story behind it, one of nine thousand in a camera roll nobody has time to sort.

The stories don't disappear all at once. They fade one unasked question at a time.

They never have to open the app.

You sit next to them, press record, and HiClotho asks the questions. Nothing to learn, nothing to type, no account for them.

Your mum. Your dad. Your grandmother.

Free keeps their voice. Legacy writes it down.

Every interview keeps the recording and every word they said, in their own language. On Legacy each one is also written up into a story you can read aloud at a table.

One question at a time, out loud.

It listens, follows what they say, and asks the next thing. Nobody has to know where to start.

“What was the house you grew up in?”

“Who was always there?”

“What do you remember most?”

Some stories only need someone to ask.

Only 25 founding families

If this already feels right.

Reserve your founding place. €59 a year, locked for life. Nothing to pay today.

We write to you before September. After the first 25 families, Legacy is €99 a year.

Your own life goes in the same way.

A photograph with the place kept. Thirty seconds of your own voice. Two lines about a Tuesday that turned out to matter.

Keep the whole afternoon.

EventA moment, its photographs, and the place pinned.
JournalWrite it down while it's still fresh.
Voice noteSay it in thirty seconds. No typing.

One day it won't be the picture you want back.

"Gran made her famous turkey, the way her mother did, then told us the story behind the recipe."

The bit she always laughs at before she gets to it.

Invite the family in.

Create a household, invite by link or email, and write the archive together: one shared history, not one account each. Your mother adds the version you never heard; your daughter asks the thing nobody thought to ask.

No one remembers life alone.

Everyone keeps their own timeline and chooses what the family sees. Open a name and you get what they've chosen to pass on, in their words.

One living history, for whoever comes next.

One subscription.
The whole family.

One person pays. Everyone they invite writes into the same archive: photographs, video, voice, and the version only they remember.

Where did Grandpa propose?

By the fountain in Plaça de la Vila, in the spring of 1963. Joana tells the whole story herself, in a voice note.

One day a child in this family will want all of it.

Not a folder of files. The word your father used for a thing nobody calls that any more.

You're not filing this away. You're handing it forward, in the words your family actually used, to someone who isn't born yet.

Yours, and only yours.

Your family's stories are private by default, never sold, and never used to train AI. We're paid by subscriptions rather than advertising, so the only people we answer to are the families using it.

The first 25 families will build HiClotho with us.

They join in September, in small groups, so we can sit with each one properly — at the founding price, kept for as long as they stay.

If it isn't what you hoped, tell us in the first month of your subscription and we'll refund you. What you recorded stays yours to keep and export.

Only 25 founding families

Locked for life.

We write to you before September.

After the first 25 families, Legacy is €99 a year.

Questions

My dad isn't good with technology. Will this work?

That's exactly who we built it for. You run the app; he just talks. The guided interview asks the questions, waits for him, and files everything he says on its own.

What languages can we use?

The guided interview works in English, Spanish, Catalan and Italian, and the answer is kept exactly as it was said: a story told in Catalan stays in Catalan, in her voice. The app ships in all four for the September launch.

What does it cost?

Free is genuinely free. Legacy is €99 a year for the whole family; the table above has the detail.

Who pays: everyone, or one of us?

One of you. Legacy is a family subscription, not a seat: one person subscribes and everybody they invite writes into the same archive.

How does a guided voice interview work?

HiClotho asks the questions, one at a time, and the person answers out loud. Six questions an interview on Free, ten on Legacy, five minutes an answer.

When does it launch?

Publicly in November 2026. Origin Circle families are invited in September.
