The Jozef Project

Every life is worth remembering

Your story,
in your own words.

We turn spoken conversations into a growing collection of first-person stories — captured by voice, shaped by AI, preserved for the people who matter most.

3 free recordings · 1 free story polish · No app to download · No profit, just stories

Simple enough for anyone

Designed around people who may have little time, limited energy, and no interest in technology.

01

Set up a profile

A family member or care worker takes five minutes to set up a profile — name, birth year, hometown. That's all we need to personalise the questions and get started.

02

Have a natural conversation

Each session, we suggest a personal question — something like "What was the best summer of your life?" A family member guides the conversation while the app records. No typing, no pressure.

03

The AI shapes each story

Recordings are transcribed and polished into flowing first-person stories — in their own voice. Each one stands alone, and together they build something extraordinary.

04

A collection that grows over time

Read each story as it's published. Add more any time. The collection grows with every conversation, building a living record of a life well lived.

Stories worth keeping

Every person has stories their family will treasure for generations. The project exists to make sure those stories don't disappear.

We didn't have much, but the house was always full. Mum would cook enough for ten people even when there were only four of us. I think that's where I learned that love is something you do, not just something you feel.

Margaret, 84

Growing up in Ballarat

The first morning I walked onto the floor as a registered nurse, I was so nervous I could barely read the charts. By lunchtime, a patient squeezed my hand and said "You're going to be wonderful at this." I never forgot her.

The working years

We had sixty-two years together. People ask what the secret is. There is no secret. You just decide, every morning, to keep choosing each other.

For families

Be part of the story

You don't need to be in the room. Upload old photos, ask the questions you've always wanted answered, and the stories take shape — wherever you are in the world.

Every story is yours to keep. You'll know you helped capture it before the moment passed.

📷

Upload photos

Upload a photo and our AI will suggest questions inspired by it — a powerful way to surface memories tied to a specific moment.

💬

Ask a question

Type a specific question you've always wanted answered. It goes straight into the patient's prompt queue.

📖

Read every story

Read each story as it's published. You'll hear their voice in every paragraph.

For aged care & palliative care facilities

Help your residents leave something that lasts

A 20 to 30 minute conversation is all it takes — no specialist staff, no disruption to existing routines. Each session produces something real: a story, in their own words, that their family can keep forever.

We're currently working with a small number of founding facilities. If this feels right for your residents, we'd love to hear from you.
