Nothing to install, nothing to maintain

Open your browser and you are working. Enter data on your laptop, check a date on your phone in the archive. No program to install or update, no files to back up yourself: your tree is saved automatically.

Your data stays in Europe

Your tree and your photos are stored on servers in the European Union. They are not stored outside the EU and not sold on.

Privacy built in

Living relatives never just appear on the public site. Studio decides that automatically; you add exceptions, with consent. Notes you want to keep private stay private.

Online right away, no detour

Studio is part of Genealogie Online. What you enter appears on your own publication by itself: no exporting a GEDCOM file, uploading and waiting. Your tree is always up to date, with the same pages, search and maps as every publication on Genealogie Online.

Help, but you decide

Studio completes place names, understands "about 1884", warns when a child is older than its mother and points you to records on Open Archieven that seem to belong to your family. Taking them over is your decision, after looking. No algorithm or artificial intelligence filling your tree with invented facts.

How it works

1
Start with yourself or an ancestor
One name is enough.
2
Add family with one click
Father, mother, partner, child. Studio creates the families for you.
3
Your publication goes online
Once you have entered 25 persons, Studio publishes your tree on your own page on Genealogie Online; every later change goes online by itself.

Already have a tree on Genealogie Online?

Do you use a genealogy program and upload GEDCOM files? With Plus you move your existing publication to Studio in one go and continue online from then on. Your addresses, privacy settings, photos and starting points come along. Moving is a one-time step; you can undo it as long as you have not changed anything online yet. Prefer to stay with your own program? The GEDCOM upload remains available.
