Your Calendar, Not Ours

Months of any length, in any number

Genealogy software was built for real families and real calendars. Ask it about a six-hundred-year-old elf and it argues with you. Lineage was built the other way round — you define the species, the lifespans, the months and the eras.

Free
$0

One world and fifty characters, with every feature that makes a world: trees, timelines, eras, calendars, continuity checking, portraits, and your data exportable at any time.

F.A.Q.

Yes. Name your months, give each one any number of days, and set as many eras as your world needs. Every date and age in the app is worked out in your calendar rather than a real one.

Yes. You set the lifespan for each species and the continuity checker measures against that rather than a human lifetime.

On the paid plan you can publish a world, a chart or a timeline as a read-only link and put it on your own site. Anything marked hidden is left out of the reader's copy entirely.

At any time, on any plan. Export a world or your whole library as a JSON file, and export any chart as a PNG or JPEG at print resolution.

Reading and editing, yes. Pinch to zoom, and the tools fold into a menu. Arranging a large family tree wants a bigger screen.
