What you can put on it

1

People, with what matters about them

Name, nickname, gender, birth and death dates. Then the fields therapists reach for: mental health, physical health, substance use, illnesses. Adoption and foster placement have their own markers. You mark the person you are building around as the index person.

2

Relationships, including the difficult ones

Marriage, divorce, separation. Alongside them the emotional lines, where it gets interesting: close, distant, hostile, cut off, fused. A cut-off someone later repaired has its own marker, because that is a different story from a break nobody mended.

3

Notes you would otherwise lose

Every person has a notes field. The sentence someone dropped at the table, a date that appears in no document, the reason a person moved out. Those small things are what add up to a pattern.

How it works

1

Create a free account

You need an account because we store your genogram on the server, so it waits for you next time. We do not ask for a card.

2

Place people and draw the lines

Start with yourself or with the person you are curious about, then add parents, siblings, grandparents. You draw relationships between the symbols. The editor saves your layout as you go.

3

Export it or share it

Download a PNG or a PDF. You can also send a view-only link, or invite a relative to edit with you if they remember more than you do.

What it costs

A free account gives you 1 genogram. It holds up to 50 people. You can keep editing it for as long as you keep the account. For most people who want to see three generations of their immediate family, that is enough.

A paid genogram holds up to 200 people. It stays editable for a year, after which you can extend it. Credits come in packs, paid once, with no subscription.

Start with the people you know

You do not need a full set of dates or every surname. Put a few people down, connect them, and fill in the rest after the next family conversation.
