ROOTME // 01
A living tree canvas
An elegant infinite canvas — add a relative with just a name, focus on anyone, collapse whole branches, and glide through 5,000 people without a stutter.
A new interface for family memory
Turn your family's past into a living universe.
Bring names, journeys, photographs, and stories into one living family universe. Start with yourself; RootMe keeps every connection clear, considered, and under your control.
Free to start · your first tree is ready in under a minute
Living people are private by default
Precise kinship in Turkish and English
Portable with GEDCOM and JSON export
Context, not records
A family is far more than names arranged in boxes.
RootMe keeps the tree at the center while preserving the place, time, story, and uncertainty behind every person. It stays as trustworthy as an archive and as human as a family album.
One living system
See, understand, and grow your family history together
From the family tree to the time machine, every surface opens another view of the same story—and no suggestion becomes fact without your approval.
ROOTME // 02
Kinship that speaks your language
Pick any two people and get the real word — hala, not just 'aunt'; görümce, baldız, enişte. Precision English terms too, down to 'second cousin once removed'.
ROOTME // 03
Family Atlas & Journey
Every birthplace and migration on a map — historical names like Filibe resolve to today's Plovdiv, and a time slider replays your family's journeys.
ROOTME // 04
Discovery with consent
Other trees may hold your shared ancestors. Only deceased people are ever compared, only hints are shown, and nothing connects until both sides agree.
ROOTME // 05
Memories, not just dates
Photos with location data stripped on upload, stories tagged to everyone in them, and a time machine that shows your family as it was in any year.
ROOTME // 06
AI that proposes, never decides
Paste a story or an old document photo — AI extracts facts for your approval, one by one, behind hard spending ceilings. Fully optional.
Start with one name
The shortest path into your past
01
Place yourself first
Your name is enough. The tree grows outward from you in the right context.
02
Add a connection as you remember it
Parent, partner, child, or sibling—RootMe asks about the relationship and never assumes.
03
Reveal the shape of your family
Kinship paths, migrations, surnames, and memories meet in one coherent story.
Trust is not a setting added later
Quiet, uncompromising principles for family data
Consent is the feature
Cross-tree discovery starts off, living people are never compared, and nothing connects until both sides agree.
Uncertainty stays intact
Approximate dates, historic place names, and family stories are never rewritten as certain facts.
You always have the final say
AI and relative contributions arrive as suggestions. Export your data in standard formats whenever you choose.
You are the first node
Give your family story a place to live before it disappears.
Start in a minute. Add one name. Let the rest grow as your family remembers.
