Looking for a Storii alternative?

Storii currently costs $9.99 monthly or $99 yearly. Its physical Gift Box costs $119 and includes 12 months of service.

Paid plans include up to three scheduled Life Story calls each week, unlimited call-ins during the subscription, more than 1,000 questions, automatic transcription, AI biographical rewrites, family notifications, and audiobook and e-book downloads.

Storii’s official pricing

AfterLyfe costs $12.99 monthly or $99 yearly. Keyholder accounts are free. Keyholders do not pay to request stories or view and download the content shared with them.

Storii can call someone at selected times and ask a life story question. The person answers after the prompt, and Storii records the audio.

Each phone recording can currently last up to 15 minutes. Storii then stores the recording, creates a transcript, and produces an optional AI biographical rewrite.

This is a major strength for someone who uses a regular phone or landline and is uncomfortable recording through a website.

AfterLyfe requires an internet-connected device. In return, it preserves the person visually. Loved ones can revisit their face, expressions, laughter, surroundings, and way of telling the story.

Storii allows people to add text, photographs, video, and audio through its online service. Family members can attach media to phone-recorded answers.

The difference is not that Storii lacks video.

Storii’s automated storytelling experience records audio phone calls. AfterLyfe centers direct video stories, downloadable videos, personal messages, posthumous release, and controlled sharing with selected Keyholders.

AfterLyfe Keyholders receive free accounts. They can:

• Request stories they want preserved
• View the videos and messages shared with them
• Download shared videos and messages
• Receive content during the member’s lifetime
• Receive content after the member’s vault opens

The Vault Owner can choose which Keyholders receive particular stories and messages.

Storii supports unlimited family connections and sends notifications after recordings. Its sharing model centers on connected family profiles rather than assigning individual content for present or posthumous release.

Both services support existing photographs and videos.

AfterLyfe emphasizes recording the background behind those files. A member can explain who appears, what was happening, when it occurred, and why the memory matters.

AfterLyfe also supports documents, audio uploads, personal messages, and video journals.

Storii is a strong choice for someone who wants:

• Scheduled questions delivered by phone
• Support for regular phones and landlines
• No internet requirement for the storyteller
• More than 1,000 prompts
• Automatic audio transcription
• AI-written biographical versions
• Family notifications
• Downloadable audiobooks and e-books
• Existing answers retained after cancellation
• Media exports

Storii says answers remain available in read-only form and can still be exported after cancellation.

Storii’s official FAQs

Storii may not be the right fit if direct video is the preferred guided format, individual recipient control matters, or someone wants to leave personal messages for particular people and release them after death.

Its automated calls preserve the storyteller’s voice but not their appearance.

AfterLyfe requires an internet-connected device and does not currently include automatic transcription, AI rewriting, an audiobook, or an e-book.

Its value is in the video stories, downloadable original videos, free Keyholder access, personal messages, posthumous release, and the stories behind existing family media.

Choose Storii if the goal is:

“My parent or grandparent is comfortable answering the phone, and I want their voice recorded and transcribed automatically.”

Choose AfterLyfe if the goal is:

“I want to see them tell their stories, preserve their personal messages and family media, and decide who receives each part and when.”
