Most genealogy apps are passive archives you build and forget. Ancestio keeps your family tree alive — it sends birthday and anniversary reminders via email or Telegram so you never miss an important date. 6 interactive charts, kinship calculator, family statistics, and event calendar. Invite relatives to collaborate on shared branches with flexible permissions. Import from GEDCOM (Ancestry, FamilySearch). Free, no limits on tree size. Export anytime.

I built Ancestio because I kept forgetting my relatives' birthdays. My family has 200+ people across 10 generations, and every tool I tried was either a dead archive or wanted a subscription just to see a basic chart. So I built what I actually needed: a family tree that reminds me before important dates — via email, Telegram, or however you prefer to get notified. The stack: Rails 8, PostgreSQL, D3.js for interactive charts. You can start for free with no limits on tree size. What I'd love feedback on: - Which notification channel would you want next? (WhatsApp, push, SMS?) - Which chart type is most useful to you? - Web app or mobile app — what matters more? Happy to answer any questions! 🙌
