## What is Ancestree?

Ancestree helps you build, preserve, and share your family's story — starting in minutes, no research experience needed.

Add relatives, connect generations, and attach photos and notes to each person in your tree. Watch your family history take shape visually as you go.

Start for free, no account needed
Explore the core features right away as a guest — build a tree with up to 10 people and 50 MB of photos and notes, no sign-up required.

Create an account for more room
Sign in with Google, Apple, or email to raise your limits to 15 members and sync your tree across devices.

Grow with your family
As your tree grows, upgrade to Starter (100 members, 500 MB) or Family (unlimited members, 5 GB) — and invite relatives to collaborate on the same tree together, so no one has to fill in the whole family history alone.

Built for real research
Ancestree links out to trusted genealogy resources — including FamilySearch, FindMyPast, FreeBMD, and The National Archives — so you can dig deeper into records when you're ready.

Whether you're documenting your parents' stories, tracing your roots back generations, or building something to pass down to your kids, Ancestree grows with your family.
