Why We Built Self Told

Self Told began with a personal loss.

When my father passed away unexpectedly in 2024, I realized I didn’t have a single recording of his voice — not one story in his own words. I was determined not to make the same mistake with my mom.

So, I built a simple system:

When I mentioned it to friends, they told me they were facing the same challenge — how to preserve their own family’s stories — and asked if they could use it too.

That’s how Self Told was born. It’s helped my family hold onto the voices and memories we cherish, and I hope it will do the same for yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

our services, processes, and policies right here.

What is included in the free trial?

Everything the Family Plan offers. For 30 days, you’ll have full access to all features — from inviting family members to recording, sharing, and listening to stories together. It’s the perfect way to experience how Self Told brings your family’s memories to life, completely free and with no obligation.

Yes — after your free trial ends, a subscription is required to keep using Self Told. It gives you full access to the service, so you can continue capturing, listening to, and sharing your family’s stories. You can cancel anytime, and you won’t be billed once your subscription ends.

It depends on your plan. The Family Plan lets you add as many loved ones as you’d like — there’s no limit to how many voices can join in. The Personal Plan, on the other hand, is designed for one person only. It’s perfect if you just want to preserve your own stories without inviting others to contribute.

There’s no set limit to how many stories you can record. Each subscription includes up to 20 hours of storage — enough for more than 300 stories, since most are just a few minutes long. That’s plenty of space to capture generations of memories.



Need more space? Just reach out — we’d be happy to help.

That’s fantastic. You can easily upload your existing recordings to Self Told — no need to re-record. Once uploaded, they’re treated just like any other story: you can share them with your family and preserve them alongside the rest of your growing collection.

Absolutely. You can switch plans anytime — and your new plan will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. It’s simple, and you’re always in control.

Your stories are always yours. If you decide to cancel, you’ll have the option to download your recordings so you can keep them safe and pass them down however you choose.

You can record stories in any language, but to get the full Self Told experience — like transcriptions and sharing features — recordings should be in English or Spanish. We’re working on adding more languages soon!

Absolutely. Your stories are for your family — and only your family. We take your privacy seriously, with multiple layers of security to protect every recording. Stories are encrypted while stored on our platform, and only the people you’ve invited to your account can access them.

Yes — very. We partner with Stripe, one of the world’s most trusted payment providers, to keep your information safe. Stripe is PCI Level 1 certified, which is the highest standard of payment security. Your data is handled with care at every step.
