Storii Uses AI to Turn Family Memories Into Stories That Last Forever

For generations, storytelling has been the thread connecting families, passing down legacies, and preserving the essence of lives well-lived. Yet, as technology advances, the art of sharing memories has struggled to keep pace. Storii, is harnessing the power of AI to simplify, enhance, and democratize the creation of personal memoirs. Founded by Cameron Graham, Storii is not just a product—it’s a mission to bridge generational divides and ensure that every voice, no matter how soft, echoes through history.

The seeds for Storii were sown in an unexpected place—a hospital ward. Cameron Graham, an avid runner, was hospitalized after a kidney failure during a charity 10K run. In the bed next to him was Peter, an elderly man with dementia. Observing Peter’s interactions with his family and caretakers, Cameron was struck by how fleeting and fragmented the memories of a person’s life could become. This moment of realization birthed StoriiCare, an initial venture aimed at improving the lives of seniors through the thoughtful preservation of their stories.

Fast forward to today, Storii has expanded its vision with a dual purpose: offering senior care providers transformative tools to reduce administrative burdens while also enabling individuals to record and share their life stories in an entirely new way. Cameron Graham believes that “it’s one thing to know where your parents or grandparents are from, but being able to learn about specific moments in their lives in their own words will help you understand your traditions, heritage, and what shapes your family.”

The Storii Experience Being Seamless and Accessible

Storii’s storytelling platform stands out for its simplicity. Users don’t need a smartphone, computer, or even internet access to participate. Instead, the process is as straightforward as receiving a phone call. Subscribers are prompted by curated questions—over 1,000 in total—to share their memories. These calls can be scheduled up to three times a week, or users can call back at their convenience to record their stories at their own pace. Completed recordings are uploaded to a private online profile, where family members can add photos, videos, or personal notes.

The platform’s charm lies in its inclusivity, designed to ensure even the least tech-savvy individuals can create a timeless keepsake. “Storii is the easiest way to leave behind a lasting and meaningful legacy that can be shared with family members,” Cameron explains.

Memoirs with AI

The true magic of Storii lies in its innovative application of artificial intelligence. From crafting biographies to summarizing hours of audio recordings, Storii’s AI-powered features elevate storytelling to a professional standard.

One standout capability is AI Biography Rewrites, where the AI meticulously analyzes user recordings to generate polished narratives. These rewrites clarify pauses, rectify mistakes, and add meaningful context without altering the original voice of the storyteller. “With Storii’s new AI Biography Rewrites, users can relax knowing Storii will do the work for them, making capturing and writing up memories as simple as talking on the phone,” Cameron adds. Both the raw transcription and AI-enhanced versions are preserved, allowing families to cherish the authenticity alongside the refinement.

Another transformative tool is AI Summaries, designed to distill hours of recorded memories into concise, emotionally resonant summaries. These summaries act as a bridge between generations, making it easy for younger family members to grasp the essence of their heritage over a cup of coffee. “We’re using the power of AI to distill the essence of all your stories, transforming hours of audio into a brief, easy-to-read summary,” says Cameron. Monthly updates ensure the summaries evolve alongside new recordings, creating an ever-expanding narrative map of a person’s life.

Why AI?

Storii’s decision to integrate AI wasn’t merely a nod to modern technology; it was a strategic choice to tackle the complexities of storytelling at scale. Graham’s hands-on approach—visiting hundreds of senior living facilities and speaking with staff—highlighted the need for tools that could bridge time constraints and emotional depth. AI emerged as the perfect solution, offering speed, precision, and personalization.

“Storii offers loved ones so many wonderful benefits,” Cameron emphasizes. “Not only is it an easy and convenient way to preserve family history, but this helps combat isolation through connection, provides users with a sense of purpose, and can help improve psychological well-being with reminiscence therapy.” Storii is even conducting a clinical study with a major U.S. university to quantify its impact on reducing depression and isolation.

StoriiCare

While Storii is revolutionizing memoirs, its counterpart, StoriiCare, is transforming senior living facilities across the United States and the United Kingdom. Facilities often lose hundreds of hours to paperwork, robbing caregivers of valuable time with residents. StoriiCare automates these tasks, offering a centralized system that not only streamlines administration but also fosters communication between families and their loved ones.

A standout feature allows family members to track their loved one’s daily activities in real-time, bridging gaps in communication and offering peace of mind. Facility managers also gain insights into operations without sifting through mountains of paperwork.

Customer Praise and the Road Ahead

As Storii scales its operations, customer feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Investors performing due diligence reported unparalleled enthusiasm from Storii’s users, who praised both the platform’s impact and the responsiveness of its engineering team. These sentiments reflect Cameron’s customer-first philosophy, a cornerstone of Storii’s success.

The platform’s business model—a subscription service—ensures accessibility for families while supporting Storii’s mission to scale globally. Backed by investors like 1517 Fund and angel supporters, Storii is poised to reach thousands of senior living facilities and homes worldwide.

A Legacy for the Future

Storii is more than a company; it’s a testament to the power of human connection, amplified by technology. By weaving together cutting-edge AI and a deep understanding of human emotions, Storii is redefining what it means to preserve a legacy. As Cameron Graham aptly concludes, “It’s about more than just memories; it’s about ensuring those memories continue to inspire, connect, and shape generations to come.”
