Every family has a story that deserves to be told
Raconteo was born from a simple belief: the memories of our loved ones are our most beautiful heritage, and they deserve to be preserved in a beautiful book you can hold in your hands.
Our mission
We believe that telling your story is not a luxury. It is an act of transmission, reflection and empowerment.
At the age when one leaves a professional role, when children have grown, when the pace slows — it is precious to take the time to revisit your life, to understand it, to pass it on.
Who am I?
I hold a PhD in sociology of education. My research taught me that a story only makes sense in its context — and that every voice deserves to be heard. Today I work in tech and user experience. My job: designing simple, accessible and human tools.
This project was born from an intimate moment.
While spending time with my mother, I discovered through a few questions entire chapters of her life that I didn't know about. She then chose to put her memories in writing and would send me a new chapter every month.
I realized how precious this transmission was. But I also understood something essential: not everyone is comfortable with writing. Not everyone has the time, the desire or the ability to structure their memories alone.
I wanted to keep the same result — that richness, that depth, that emotion — while making it simple and accessible to all.
So I decided to put technology at the service of memory, so that telling your story becomes easy, natural and enjoyable.
Our values
Context gives meaning
An isolated memory may seem trivial. But placed in its era, it becomes enlightening. Understanding a life means understanding the world in which it was built. We help bring this depth to stories, weaving in historical and cultural markers, to transmit not just memories — but understanding.
Every life illuminates its era
There is no such thing as a 'small' life. Every journey crosses social changes, choices, collective upheavals. Telling your story is also telling the story of an era — and offering the next generations keys to better understand the present.
Transmission is an act of the future
In a fast-paced digital world, taking the time to share your story becomes an almost revolutionary act. Transmitting is not about looking backward. It is about strengthening bonds and giving roots to those who come after.
Simplicity and humanity
Technology should fade behind the experience. We design tools that are simple, intuitive and reassuring, so that telling your story feels as natural as speaking.
Authenticity and freedom
Your voice remains your own. You choose the tone, the style, what is shared or not. AI accompanies you — it does not replace you.
Revaluation
At the time when one leaves a professional role, telling your story gives coherence and pride to your journey. You do not become 'former'. You become the keeper of a memory.
