## What is Heritage Trace?

Your face carries echoes of the populations it descends from. Heritage Trace reads them — honestly.

Take a selfie. On supported iPhones, ARKit measures 1,220 points and 16 real measurements on your face. A vision model reads the photo against documented population patterns across 10 population clusters and 37 regions — and returns a DISTRIBUTION, never a single answer. The spread is the uncertainty, shown rather than hidden.

YOUR READING
• Ancestral Origins — your distribution across 37 regions, on the map
• Predicted Origin — where the signal points most strongly, with its confidence stated
• Migration Paths — dated routes these populations are thought to have travelled
• Heritage Diet — what the regions in your reading traditionally ate, with an evidence grade on every claim
• Trades of the Region — what ordinary people there actually did
• Face Attribution — which features carry the signal, marked on your own photo
• Face Perception — what strangers assume in a tenth of a second, and why research says it predicts almost nothing
• Your Past Life — an imaginative story, clearly labeled as fiction

WHAT WE DON'T DO
We measured your face, not your DNA. Facial features carry real population signal — but broadly, not precisely. We describe populations and places, never you: "often observed in X populations" is a statement about X. No accounts, no email, no sign-up. Your photo is sent for one analysis request and never stored on our servers. Where research backs a claim we grade it; where it doesn't, we say so.

SUBSCRIPTION
A reading requires an auto-renewable subscription — Complete (yearly) unlocks every module; Core (monthly) unlocks the core reading. Up to ten scans per rolling week. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel any time in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions.

Heritage Trace is for curiosity about what faces suggest at the population level. It is not a DNA test, not genealogy, and never a statement of who you are.
