Sources you can inspect
Research notes should point back to a real source. A public family-tree profile is a lead to investigate, with its claims still to check.
For the questions that run in the family
An unfamiliar name. A missing parent. A story that doesn't quite add up. We're building a research companion to help you find your next step — and the sources behind it.
In development. Early-access details will appear here.
What do we know?
What still needs a source?
Open the source.

What's coming
The first release will focus on one ancestor and one research question at a time.
Start with a GEDCOM export from your genealogy software. Keep the original tree as your starting point.
Review conflicting dates, missing information, and places where your tree needs a closer look.
Find public genealogy profiles to investigate, with links back to the source and clear limits on what a possible match can tell you.
Keep a cited research report: what you reviewed, what remains uncertain, and where you could look next.
Our approach
AI can help organize the search. The evidence — and your judgment — should lead the way.
Follow what's nextResearch notes should point back to a real source. A public family-tree profile is a lead to investigate, with its claims still to check.
Missing information and conflicting evidence belong in the report. Sometimes the honest answer is “we don't know yet.”
The first release is designed for reviewing and researching. Your imported tree will stay unchanged while you decide what deserves a place in it.
The next chapter
We're preparing a small first release for family historians with a question to explore. Early-access details will appear on this page when it's ready.
