证据

I wanted somewhere to put my family's tree that wasn't a subscription and wasn't public.

It runs at https://family.ancestry.pit.world (the native name, https://family.ancestry, resolves on the Moshpit network).

GEDCOM in and out. Import the .ged file from Ancestry, FamilySearch or any other tree program. Export gives you everything back, and the privacy export leaves out living people.

Private by default. There is no public tree setting. Someone who isn't in a tree gets a 404, so they can't even tell it exists.

There's the web app (a PWA), a JSON API, a CLI with a terminal UI, an MCP server so an assistant can work on your tree, and an Electron desktop app.
