What makes our search different
Whatever you search, the same intelligent engine works behind it — built to surface records that an ordinary search engine would never return.
ML-powered matching
The more context you add — places, parents, a partner — the better it matches. Where other search boxes need an exact hit, our engine treats your details as clues and finds records even when names or dates don't line up.
See why our matching is differentChain reaction
We don't stop at the first hit. Each match feeds new clues — a birthplace, a partner, a parent — back into the same search to uncover connected records in one go.
Namesake-aware
Several relatives sharing a name? The engine assigns each record to the right person from the whole family's context, instead of mixing them up.
Catch errors in your data
While other tools only catch inconsistencies inside your own tree, we surface where the archive records disagree with it. The ML classifier still recognises a match even when some details don't line up, and highlights exactly what conflicts right in your results.
New-source alerts
When new archives are released, your saved searches are scanned for potential matches and you're notified. Re-run a search for half the credits to bring the new finds in.
Straight to the source
When we find a match, we link you straight to the original archive or author — an independent signpost to the source, never a paywall around it.
