What it is
Sam and Norah are two AI interviewers who never get tired, never judge, and always remember what you told them. They ask the questions a good friend would ask — if that friend had endless time. Take a look at the example below:

How it works
1. Tell your story Answer questions at your own pace — by typing or speaking. About your childhood, your work, your loves, the people you've known. Norah interviews you across many topics. You just talk.
2. We write Sam writes it down the way you told it — in your words, your style. You read along and adjust wherever you like.
3. Make it your book Choose a writing style, a cover design, a structure. Or leave everything on the defaults — they're already beautiful. You decide how much you change.
4. Receive your book Order a printed copy — a real book, with your name on the cover, for around €20 each.

"I never thought I'd come to know my mother's childhood like this. The book is a treasure for our whole family." — Marieke, daughter of Riet (76)
Your book, your choice
The book is personal inside and out. You choose from:
- 5 writing styles — from short and to-the-point to rich and expansive
- 5 ways to structure it — chronologically by life stage, by theme, by decade, or something else
- 5 typographic styles — from classic to modern
- 9 cover designs — each adjustable in its own colours and mood
None of this is required. The default settings are already beautiful — you can order right away without making a single choice. But want it exactly to your taste? Everything is adjustable.
Who is this for?
- For parents who want to pass on their story — You've lived, you've seen, you've been through it. This is the way to capture it without ever having to pick up a pen.
- For children looking for a gift that lasts — You're not just giving a gift, you're giving your parent the space to tell their story. And you get something back that lasts for generations.

What's free? Your first session is free — no credit card. After that you choose a plan that fits your pace: build up gently, work briskly, or finish in four weeks. From €9.99 per month, cancel monthly.
Do I need to be good at writing? No. You tell, Sam writes. You don't have to write anything yourself if you don't want to.
Won't the AI just make something up? No. Sam only writes down what you've told it, in your words. You review every chapter and adjust it wherever you like. Nothing goes in the book that didn't come from you.
Can I tailor the book to my taste? Yes — but you don't have to. You choose from five writing styles, five structures, five typographic styles and nine cover designs. Or leave everything on the defaults and order right away. Both work.
How long does it take? As long as you want. Choose a gentle pace and take a year over it, or work intensively and be done in four weeks. You decide.
What if I don't like it? Just stop whenever you want. You can cancel monthly, no hassle.
