Your data. Your computer.

Your working tree stays in your browser unless you choose to export it.

Spreadsheet friendly.

Import and export CSV, or download a spreadsheet-compatible file.

Future record search.

A provider-ready search layer can be added only after contracts, permissions, and lawful-use rules are established.

How it works

Research without surrendering the working file.

01

Build

Add relatives, dates, places, relationships, and research notes.

02

Retain locally

Your browser keeps a working copy on this device. No piSun account is required in this prototype.

03

Take it with you

Export CSV or spreadsheet format for desktop storage, backup, and future import.

Member chart studio

Genealogy charts that read in the direction of each family branch.

Names follow the fan segments instead of sitting in horizontal boxes. Choose a basic chart included with membership or an elaborate premium layout with a separate chart fee.

Evidence-based lineage research

Explore traditions and outlier lineages without inventing certainty.

A future ChatGPT research option can compare documented family relationships, geographic migration, names, cited historical sources, and patron-provided DNA summaries. It can surface possible connections to scriptural traditions—including traditions associated with the tribes of Israel—or other unusual lineage hypotheses.

Scientific boundaryNeither DNA markers nor surnames can precisely establish descent from a specific biblical tribe. Any tribal association must be labeled as documented tradition, historical hypothesis, genetic inference, or unsupported speculation.
Research output standard
  • Documented: supported by primary genealogical records
  • Corroborated: multiple credible secondary sources
  • Inferred: plausible genetic, geographic, or historical pattern
  • Traditional: scriptural, cultural, or family tradition
  • Speculative: insufficient evidence for a lineage claim
Structured findings can be staged as key=value placement suggestions and are applied only after patron review. Live ChatGPT research requires a separately configured connection and explicit consent for DNA data.

Distinct religious-lineage chart

Prophets and apostles across dispensations

Designate an ancestor recorded as a prophet or apostle, select the descendant, and FamilyLink will trace only continuous parent-to-child links already present in the tree.

Claims of descent from Jesus ChristNo historically verifiable parent-to-child genealogy establishes descendants of Jesus Christ. Any such entry is separated from verified lineage and labeled as an unverified religious tradition or conspiracy theory—not fact.

Create a highlighted lineage record

No prophetic or apostolic lineage chart has been created.Add only sourced claims and complete parent-to-child links.

Consent-controlled family health history

Genetic Marker Traits Inheritance and Attributes to Descendants from Ancestors

Record medical conditions, mental-health diagnoses, behavioral traits and family recollections for ancestors or living relatives. A family member may contribute a claim without a medical professional, but the record always shows its source and verification status.

Medical boundaryFamily-reported claims are not diagnoses. Shared genes, environment, experience and behavior may all affect health. Only a qualified clinician can diagnose a person or interpret inherited risk.

Not medical advice: Printed and exported records may contain unverified family claims. They do not establish a diagnosis or inherited risk. Consult a licensed clinician or genetic counselor before testing, surveillance, reproductive decisions or treatment.

Verified FamilyLink membership

One membership unlocks every import and export.

Enrollment is designed to combine Stripe Identity government-ID and live-selfie verification, recurring PayPal billing, a unique 10-digit membership number, and a device passkey for returning biometric sign-in.

1 Identity2 Payment3 Member number4 Passkey
Monthly$2.99every month
Annual$10.99every year

Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. Import and export access requires both an active paid subscription and completed identity verification.

Member account

Identity, membership and billing in one place.

Your 10-digit FamilyLink member number is designed to be created only after Stripe Identity verification succeeds and PayPal confirms the recurring subscription. Returning members can begin on a computer and approve a cross-device passkey or biometric challenge on their phone.

Recent records research

Designed for a future verified-data workflow.

Search tools for recently deceased persons are not connected yet. A future integration must confirm permitted purpose, credentialing, privacy notices, retention limits, audit logging, and the provider’s contract terms before any live data is shown.

Integration statusNot connected

Provider-neutral adapter planned

Bring family trees together

Import, identify and verify a relative’s tree.

Tree names and numbers travel with FamilyLink files. Before anything is added, review possible duplicate people and choose whether to merge unique records, inspect conflicts, or replace the current working tree.

Verified member tree exchange

Share a partial family tree only after the connection is reviewed.

Members can prepare CSV, spreadsheet, GEDCOM, or patron-downloaded FamilySearch files for another verified member. A screenshot may support a review, but neither ChatGPT nor a screenshot alone proves a biological relationship.

Evidence boundary“Possible match” means records appear to describe the same or connected people. “Blood relative” requires documented parent-child links or other reliable genealogical evidence confirmed by the patron.
