Solace Memories: one call, one family story
An AI interviewer meets parents and grandparents by video call, in the language they speak at home, and turns their stories into subtitled family clips.

- Families preserving an older relative’s stories
- Worth noticing
- The 42-second demo is captions-only, silent, and explicitly labeled as an invented story.
Field notes
The described flow starts with a setup call to learn a relative’s preferred name, language or dialect, and the time of day they feel most at ease. A trusted person opens the call; Mai identifies herself as AI and asks permission aloud before proceeding. The 42-second sample is explicitly invented and captions-only, with Vietnamese and English dialogue. The site describes transcripts and a private family page as part of the family-facing output.
