Yes. Raconteo is often used by children or grandchildren who want to capture the story of their parents or grandparents.
Two possible approaches:
1. You manage the entire project You create an account, conduct the interview yourself (asking the questions and transcribing the answers), and compose the book. The person doesn't need to use any device.
Ideal for: people who aren't comfortable with technology, or surprise projects.
2. You help the person use Raconteo You create the account together, install the app on their tablet, and they answer the questions themselves (often by voice). You can check the progress and help if needed.
Ideal for: people who want to be the authors of their own story.
The Assisted Biographer plan If you want professional guidance — for example, for a very elderly parent or someone who doesn't speak easily — our Assisted Biographer plan includes a personal assistant who guides the interview by phone or video call.
