Getting Started with Joanna
Follow these simple steps to start preserving life stories through natural WhatsApp conversations.
Whose Memoir are we Building?
Want to preserve Grandma's famous stories? Or the ones your dad told you about when he was a kid? Or maybe you want to preserve the memories you have from when you moved out of your parents' house. Joanna can be used by anyone, anywhere - all they need is a phone number. The first step is choosing whose stories you you want to preserve - it can be a loved one or yourself.
Ensure they don't have unknown numbers blocked on WhatsApp
Joanna listens to the stories no one else has time for. Talking to her is addicting. She has reminded me of parts of myself I have lost over the years.

Introduce & Guide Joanna
Unlike our competitors, Joanna is a companion—not a questionnaire. While she naturally adapts to your loved one over time, you can help jumpstart the process by introducing her to who she's chatting with and guiding her on what you'd like to explore. She'll organically ask thoughtful questions, weaving in topics of special interest based on your input.
Send a Connection Request
Joanna will send a personalized welcome message to the number you provided. All they have to do is accept, and voilà—the magic begins!
(We know getting a hold of your elders can sometimes be tricky, so don't worry—nobody gets charged until they accept the request.)
$8/month for unlimited messages (texts, voice messages, images & videos), charged only after acceptance.
Cancel anytime - stories will remain accessible and shareable.

Whether you're sharing Grandma's wisdom with your kids, your father's adventures with siblings, or your own journey with friends, you'll create a lasting digital legacy to treasure for generations.
