The complete platform for exploring, documenting, and sharing your family history — from passionate hobbyists to professional researchers.
Whether you're tracing your roots for the first time or running a professional genealogy practice, AncestorOS has the tools for you.
Connect generations visually with an intuitive tree builder. Add photos, dates, and relationships with ease.
Preserve stories, recipes, letters, and traditions before they're lost to time. Rich media attachments supported.
See your family's journey layered against world history — migrations, wars, milestones, and more.
Hints, record matches, anniversary reminders, and missing-data alerts — each with a confidence level and a one-tap accept or dismiss.
Track test kits from AncestryDNA, 23andMe, MyHeritage, and FamilyTreeDNA. Log matches with cM values and use the built-in reference table to understand predicted relationships.
See your family's geography on an interactive map. Birth, death, marriage, and migration events are geocoded automatically from place names in your tree.
Visualize your ancestry or descendants as a radial fan chart. Pick any person as the root and export the result.
Track clients, project scope, deliverables, and communication history — all in one place.
Start and stop timers per client and project. Time entries attach directly to invoices automatically.
Generate beautiful invoices and accept Stripe payments. Auto-calculated from your tracked time entries.
Log research sessions with positive/partial/negative/pending result tracking — works anywhere, syncs when online.
10 record-type categories with first reference, subsequent reference, and source list formats — all with one-click copy.
Track which databases you've searched for each person — not-searched, searched-nothing, or searched-found — so you never duplicate effort.
Upload and organize PDFs, images, and Word documents. Full-text search and filter by file type.
No free tier. No hidden limits. Pick the plan that fits your research and get full access from day one.
We're not here to replace the platforms you already use. We're here to give you better tools for managing and documenting your own research.
