A useful, artistic way to see your family tree.
opentree press takes a unique, visual approach to family history — focused on time, place, and geography, then built to turn that story into high-quality prints.
Print Studio
Solve the hard parts of printing a family tree.
opentree press helps with the problems that usually make family tree prints hard: low-resolution portraits, awkward layouts, missing context, and print files that are not ready for a frame. Optimize images, choose a strong layout, review the proof, and create a high-quality print of a real family story.

Tree workspace
Tools that put people and places first.
We built tools that put people and places first, including inline research and easily accessible image and document galleries.
- Interactive tree navigation with search, zoom, and generation controls.
- Person records with names, dates, places, portraits, and relationship context.
- Focused editing actions so the next step is obvious when you find a gap.
Photos and documents
Capture the shoebox before the story disappears.
Add media to the person it belongs to. On mobile, capture photographs and documents, confirm the result, and let documents flow into OCR so record text can become usable family-history context.
Mobile capture
Open the camera from a person record, take the shot, review it, and save it to the tree.
Document handling
Documents are stored separately from photos and prepared for OCR-backed reading.
Organized by person
Keep photos, documents, OCR text, and record details attached to the person they belong to.
Maps and lineage
Turn names and dates into a geography you can feel.
Family history is spatial. opentree press helps surface birthplaces, recorded regions, and movements across generations, then carries that context into interactive views and printable designs.

Research without locking up your work.
Use the workspace to organize what you find, favor genuinely public sources first, and keep your family archive portable. The work you bring here should remain useful outside a single service.
Helpful AI, grounded in your family material.
AI features are there to assist with organization, image preparation, summaries, and next-step thinking — not to replace evidence or invent a family story.
Start anywhere
Begin with one person. Build from there.
Add a parent, import a GEDCOM, scan a document, or make a print. The archive becomes more valuable every time a real family detail finds its place.
