Family Roots
FamilyRoots is a collaborative family tree platform where relatives work together to build and explore their shared heritage. It provides interactive tree visualizations, rich person profiles, family stories, photo albums, and audio recordings. The platform turns genealogy into a living, shared family project rather than a solo research task.
