Bring your whole tree. Leave the subscription.
Years of research move here in one file. Three steps, about fifteen minutes, and the door out stays open: every export works on every plan, free included.
Export a GEDCOM where you are
Every genealogy platform exports one. It is the universal family tree format. On Ancestry: Trees → Tree Settings → Export tree. On MyHeritage: use the free Family Tree Builder app. Download your photos separately; no GEDCOM from any platform carries them.
Import it here
Create a free account, choose Import, and hand over the file. Names, dates, places, relationships, and sources arrive intact; a 300-person tree lands in about a minute. You will see exactly what was imported and any rows that need attention.
Invite the family
Send viewer links to relatives on any plan, free included. They see the tree, the photos, and the stories on their phones without creating a research account or paying anyone.
What transfers, honestly
Comes with the GEDCOM: people, dates, places, relationships, marriages, notes, and source citations.
Does not, on any platform: photographs and scanned documents. Download them from your old platform while your access still works, then attach them here where they will stay. The full checklist is in what happens to your tree if you stop paying.
Stays behind: the licensed historical records themselves (census images, military files). Those were rented, not owned. Keep personal copies of the ones your research relies on. For active research, pair a free research tool with this archive.
See what a finished archive looks like first. The demo is a full six-generation family, no account needed.
