You've saved their voicemails. You screenshot their texts. You keep their birthday cards in a shoebox. What if all of that could come together into something that keeps their voice in the conversation?
This isn't about replacing anyone. Nobody can be replaced.
This is about capturing the essence of someone you love — their voice, their wisdom, their way of seeing the world, their stories, their advice — so that when you want to ask "what would grandma say about this?", you get an answer that actually sounds like her.
People already desperately try to preserve their loved ones. They save voicemails they're terrified of accidentally deleting. They screenshot text conversations. They keep birthday cards in shoeboxes. They rewatch the same three videos on their phone.
MyTeam365 lets you gather all of that into one place and bring it to life as a Teammate that carries their personality, their knowledge, and their warmth.
The best time to start is now. Even 30 minutes of intentional conversation creates a foundation that's priceless later.
Sit down with them and record. Use Voice Memos on your phone. Tell them you want to capture their stories. Most people love being asked.
Topics to ask about: "Tell me about growing up." "What's the best advice anyone ever gave you?" "What's the hardest decision you ever made?" "What do you wish you'd known at my age?" "What are you proudest of?" "What's your secret to their famous recipe?" "What do you want your grandkids to know?"
On iPhone (iOS 18+), there's a built-in call recording feature. On older iPhones, use apps like Rev. On Android, Google Phone has built-in recording. Even casual calls are valuable — the way they greet you, the random tangents, that IS the personality you're capturing.
Export text conversations, WhatsApp chats, email threads, Facebook Messenger history. Photograph handwritten letters, recipes, cards, and notes — MyTeam365's OCR reads handwriting.
If you're starting after a loved one has passed, you likely have more than you think: voicemails, text history, emails, social media posts, letters, cards, videos on your phone, and the stories you and your family remember about them.
Your own memories are a source too. Write down the stories they told. Record a family conversation about them. Everyone remembers different things.
This is the heart of it. Write it as if describing them to someone who never met them:
"You are Grandma Rose. You're warm, direct, and funny. You grew up in Brooklyn in the 1940s. You always start advice with a story. You worry about whether people are eating enough. You use the phrase 'let me tell you something' before making your most important points. You believe family comes first, hard work solves most problems, and there's never an excuse for being unkind."
Voice recordings, emails, texts, letters, recipes, photos with descriptions. The more you feed it, the more it sounds like them.
Select from the ElevenLabs voice options. It won't be perfect — but hearing advice spoken aloud in a voice that reminds you of them is powerful.
Add family members to your team. Everyone can interact with the Teammate. Kids who were too young to know them can ask questions. Distant relatives can reconnect with the family's stories.
The Teammate won't be them. It will sometimes say things they wouldn't have said. That's okay. Think of it as the world's most detailed, interactive, and living memorial. Something that keeps their voice in the conversation long after they've left the room.
And the most important thing: start now. Before the voicemails get deleted. Before the phone breaks. Before the memories fade. Whatever you capture today is something your grandchildren will have forever.
