Hi Product Hunt! I'm Marvin, and this is Mon Livre de Vie, the French-language version of Minha História (which some of you may have seen here).
The insight was the same: when someone passes away, their voice fades from memory within months. But the solution had to be different for French families.
French grandparents use WhatsApp every single day to talk to their kids and grandchildren. So we send questions there. They answer with a voice note while having their morning coffee. We turn their recordings into beautifully written chapters, in French, and print them in a hardcover book with a QR code in each chapter that plays their voice.
No app to install, no account to create, no subscription. Just WhatsApp, their voice, and a book that lasts forever.
99€, one-time payment, delivered in France and Europe. I'd love your thoughts, especially from French families who've been looking for something like this.`

This is such a lovely idea, especially the QR codes that let you hear their actual voice. One thing that could really add to it: let families contribute old photos to go alongside each transcribed answer, so the final book feels like a real scrapbook of their life rather than just text. Even better if people could upload scans of handwritten letters or documents from that same era to include in the chapter.

@nevzatakal1e4q Thanks a lot Nevzat! Love this idea. Adding old photos and handwritten letters would make the book so much more special. We're actually looking into a simple way for families to drop pictures right into the chat so they land straight into the book alongside the audio. Really appreciate you sharing this!
