The grove, live

Every timeline is drawn as a tree. Grow one yourself.

Same rules, eight species. The tree is generated from your memories — same seed, same tree, every time you open the app.

41 memories

Species — free for everyone

Season — follows the real calendar

  • 0 leaves — one per memory
  • 0 blossoms — milestones, and capsules that have opened
  • 0 fruit — years spanned
  • 0 bud — a sealed letter

The crown steps up at 4, 16, 41, 101 and 200 — never on a schedule, only on what you kept.

See it, don't take our word

Three ways to look at the same 24 memories.

Rail keeps it simple. Spine reads like a book. Vine is the one you'll screenshot. Same memories, three shapes — switch and see.

Spine & Vine are Premium in the app

Started buying from the same two stalls. They now tell me what is good today rather than selling me what I asked for.
