Hear a real story
This is Carren, talking about her grandmother. No script, no prompting. Just a real person sharing a real memory, preserved forever with SundayPorch.
Record your family's first story free“I wanted to be like my grandmother. She was a good lady, she was kind, she was gentle, and I wanted to be the same way.”
Carren, Dreams of a Different Life
Three simple steps
Add a storyteller
Enter their name and relationship. That's it.

Send them a link, schedule a call, or record together in person. They share at their own pace.
You get a keepsake
A polished story, a custom illustration, and a shareable clip.
Free to start. No credit card required.
However they're comfortable sharing, we make it easy.
Send a link
Text them a link. They tap it and chat with our AI at their own pace — like texting a friend who’s genuinely curious about their life.
Schedule a call
We call them at a time that works. A warm AI guide asks questions, listens, and follows up naturally.
Record in person
Together for the holidays? Open the app, hit record, and capture the story while you’re in the room.
Every method produces the same beautiful result: a polished audio story in their voice, a written transcript, and a custom illustration.
Free to start. No credit card required.
“I built SundayPorch because I wanted to preserve my grandmother's stories before it was too late. She's 84, and I realized I'd never recorded a single one. That's what this is for: making it so easy that you actually do it.”
Free to start. No credit card required.

Illustrated Stories
Each story comes with a custom illustration inspired by the narrative.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if my parent isn't tech-savvy?
They don’t need to download anything. You text them a link — they tap it and start chatting. Or we can call them at a scheduled time. Or you can sit together and record in person. Whatever works best for your family.
How long until I see results?
Your parent's first story is processed within minutes of the conversation ending. You'll get a shareable clip, transcript, and illustration. Not weeks or months from now.
What if my parent doesn't want to do it?
Start with the free tier. They share one story, and we generate one clip. If they don't enjoy it, you've lost nothing. Most parents love it once they start talking.
Can other family members listen to the stories?
Yes. Invite unlimited family members to your dashboard. They can listen to stories, watch clips, react, and even suggest questions for future conversations.
How is this different from StoryWorth?
StoryWorth asks your parent to write essays by email for a year. SundayPorch lets them just talk and delivers results in minutes, not months. We also preserve their actual voice in a narrated audio memoir, generate custom illustrations, and include a hardcover printed book. And our $99 Full Memoir is a one-time purchase, not an annual subscription. Your storyteller has options — a chat link, a scheduled call, or in-person recording. However your family is most comfortable.
