Our Story
Built from a
simple regret.
When my grandfather passed, I realized I could barely remember his voice. The stories he told at dinner, the advice he gave, the way he laughed — all fading faster than I expected.
I had thousands of photos. A few videos. But his voice? His thoughts? His wisdom accumulated over 80 years? Gone. I wished I had recorded just one conversation. Just one.
That regret became Stey.
We built an app that makes preserving your voice as easy as speaking. No complicated setup, no cloud accounts, no privacy concerns. Just press record and talk — like you're speaking to someone you love.
The AI runs entirely on your device because your most intimate thoughts deserve absolute privacy. We can't see your memories. We don't want to. They're yours.
Our Mission
To ensure that the people who matter most can hear your voice, know your story, and feel your presence — long after you're gone.
What We Believe
Privacy is non-negotiable
Your memories are sacred. We process everything on-device because it's the right thing to do, even though it's harder to build.
Simplicity over features
The best app is one you actually use. We'd rather do a few things beautifully than many things poorly.
Legacy for everyone
Preserving memories shouldn't be a luxury. The core of Stey will always be free because everyone deserves to be remembered.
Built with intention
We're not trying to capture your attention or monetize your data. We want to help you create something meaningful.

Whisper AI
State-of-the-art speech recognition, running locally on your device
