A memoir ghostwriter you can talk to
Your life story, in your own words. Tell it out loud and the River Pilot, an AI memoir ghostwriter, turns each conversation into a chapter you can edit and keep.
Why talking works for memoirs
Most people tell their stories far better than they type them. The guide asks one short question at a time: where you were, who was there, what it smelled and sounded like, what happened next. Then it writes the chapter from your answers, keeping the way you actually say things.
Getting the dates and places right
Memory blurs years and places. When your story touches real events, the guide says how sure it is about the history, never makes up dates or names, and gives each chapter a short list of details to check. Free places to check them include the US National Archives (military and government records) and FamilySearch (family records).
What a memoir writing service usually costs
Reedsy, a marketplace for professional ghostwriters, lists $18,000 to $50,000 as the typical price for a ghostwritten biography or memoir in 2026 (source). Our price: Pricing has not been announced yet.
Good for
- Your own life story or a chapter of it
- Family history to pass down
- Service memories, work life, growing up somewhere that's gone now
The guide is an AI, not a person. Accounts are for adults aged 18 and over; a family member can hold the account and run the talks for an older relative telling their story.
