Guides

Connect generations clearly

Begin at the center and expand outward. Capture relationships first, then refine dates, places, and stories.

Build from the center

Add yourself, parents, and siblings
Then add grandparents and key life events
Don’t chase perfection — capture relationships first

Node	What to add
Person	Name, birth/death dates, places, profile photo
Relationship	Parent/child, spouses, siblings
Notes	Stories, sources, and the details you are still unsure about

Build your own family tree, not just read someone else's

Start a private family space where your relatives can preserve names, photos, stories, and relationship context together.

A quiet recap of what you missed

Kunbaa writes each member a short recap of the family updates they missed — drawn from your own archive, delivered as a notification, and never used to train public models.

Written for you
New photos, upcoming birthdays, tasks with your name on them.
Only what you can see
Permission-scoped to your own account — nothing more.
Read-only
It summarises. It never posts, edits, or changes anything.
