From memory to heirloom

Four steps to a framed lineage.

04
Steps from invitation to framed heirloom
01
आमन्त्रण · Āmantraṇa

Sign in with your family's invitation.

Gotra Guru is invite-gated — every record traces to a living, accountable member. No invitation yet? Request one and a Community Admin will seed your branch.

02
वृद्धि · Vṛddhi

Grow the tree, generation by generation.

Add parents, grandparents, uncles, children. Ask your eldest relative for the names the Bahī remembers — each one becomes a living branch.

03
सत्यापन · Satyāpana

The sacred identity fills itself in.

Record one ancestor's Gotra, Pravara, Kuladevata or Kuladevi and every descendant inherits it automatically — no retyping, no drift.

04
पूर्णता · Pūrṇatā

Complete it — and receive the frame.

One click renders your वंशवृक्ष heirloom poster — a soft copy sent to your email, free of cost. A printed, framed hard copy can be ordered for delivery to your home.
