AncestLore is an emotionally sensitive product. We’ve built a Crisis Safety Network & Protective Escalation System into the Memory Conversation experience.
Safety Network
You can nominate trusted contacts and choose whether AncestLore may contact them on your behalf if a serious safety concern is detected in a Memory Conversation. You can also choose whether to share your approximate location with those contacts when an alert is sent. Consent is opt-in.
Crisis escalation
If acute risk language is detected, AncestLore steps out of normal Memory Conversation behaviour, surfaces emergency resources for your region, encourages you to contact a real person, and — if you have opted in — alerts your nominated safety contacts. The AI will never romanticise harm or claim a deceased person is "waiting" for you.
Platform limitations
AncestLore is not an emergency service. It cannot replace a professional, a hotline, or the people in your life. If you are in danger, please contact local emergency services immediately.
