How It Works

From discovery to a heritage film you can keep.

Five thoughtful stages take you from what you found to a finished, private documentary story.

01

Share your discovery

Start with what you learned — a DNA result, a historical record, a piece of family research, or a story passed down. You describe it in your own words; no raw DNA data is ever required.

02

Tell the family story behind it

Add the people, places, memories, and traditions connected to the discovery. This is what turns a fact into a story worth preserving.

03

ChopAI Roots shapes the documentary narrative

We shape your experience into a personal documentary narrative — structured, honest, and true to what you shared.

04

Your story enters production

Once the narrative is right, your story moves into production as a cinematic heritage film, crafted with documentary care.

05

Receive and preserve your finished story

Your finished heritage film is delivered to your private account, ready to keep for yourself or share with family.
