Modern tooling
Serious genealogy, genuinely pleasant.
A modern, fast, keyboard-friendly interface over your raw GEDCOM — the editing experience the standard always deserved.
Edit structure, not line numbers
A structural view shows records by indentation instead of raw level digits — switch back to raw whenever you like. Tab and Enter re-nest records for you.
See what every reference means
Cross-references resolve inline: next to @I12@ you read the person it points to. Cmd-click to jump there; broken links are struck through on sight.
Catch mistakes as you type
Live, spec-aware validation underlines problems the moment they appear, with the explanation a hover away.
A real editor for GEDCOM dates
A dedicated form for the standard's tricky dates — calendars, ranges, approximations and qualifiers — so you get them right without memorizing the grammar.
Your photos, in context
Hover a file reference to preview the image inline, and set crop regions on portraits right from the editor.
A pedigree you build in
Add relatives directly in the chart, edit people in place, collapse and grow branches with a click, and open several charts at once.
Reshape the whole dataset
A visual filter-and-transform builder finds and rewrites records in bulk, with a live sandbox that shows the result before you commit. Renumber and sort references in a click.
A workspace, not a window
Tabs for many records and charts, a detail inspector, sources and citations, and full undo/redo across all of it.
In your language, in your style
Four languages, 35 themes with automatic light and dark, and a keyboard-first, accessible interface throughout.
