FAQ
What is Legatree?
Legatree is a private space for building a shared family history with profiles, relationships, places, photos, stories, and more.
What does Legatree cost?
Legatree is currently free to use. The Weddings package is in development; contact us for wedding pricing.
Who is Legatree for?
It is for families who want one connected place to understand their relationships and preserve the details behind each name.
What can I add to a family record?
You can add people, relationships, photos, stories, places, contact details, and optional family-health notes.
How do I join a family?
Use an invitation code from a family member. Depending on how the invite was created, approval may happen automatically or require a family admin.
Who can see family information?
Access depends on family membership, admin permissions, and each profile’s privacy settings.
What can family admins manage?
Admins can manage the family record, invitations, profiles, relationships, joined users, and admin roles. Legatree protects families from removing their last admin.
Is family data sold or shared?
Family data is never sold or shared with advertisers or data brokers. Your family is the sole authority of your data.
Is Health DNA medical advice?
No. Health DNA is for optional family-history notes only. It is not a diagnosis, treatment tool, clinical record, or emergency service. This feature is coming soon.
Can I explore Legatree before signing up?
Yes. You can explore the sample Montague and Windsor families through the demo. Creating or joining your own family requires an account.
Can I export my family tree?
Yes. Tree Export provides a customizable print-ready PDF of your family tree suitable for keepsakes, reunions, and family records.
How would Legatree work for a wedding?
Legatree Weddings is in development and testing. The planned experience brings two family Legatrees together around the couple through one shared link, helping guests discover their own family’s stories and get to know the other side before the celebration. Invitations, RSVPs, and event details are also planned for the wedding package.
What would wedding guests be able to see?
The planned sharing controls would let each family choose how much to share with wedding guests—as little as a first name and a photo, or more stories and background. These wedding controls are still in development.
Would our family trees stay separate after the wedding?
Yes—that is the planned experience. The wedding space would connect both families for the celebration while keeping each family’s Legatree independently viewable afterward.
How can wedding planners or couples try it, and what would it cost?
Visit the Weddings page to request a pilot or join the waitlist, or email hello@legatree.us. Contact us for pricing. The suite is still in development and testing; pilot availability and package details will be discussed individually.
