Remento alternative · UK
Looking for a Remento alternative in the UK?
Pay once. Keep their voice.
Remento is a yearly plan, priced in US dollars, where the storyteller records every answer. Tell Me Your Story is a one-time payment in pounds: type or speak each answer, whichever suits, and every voice answer gets its own QR code in the printed book.
The short answer
Which one is right for your family?
Both are good ways to capture a life story. They suit different families.
Choose Remento if…
- Your storyteller would rather speak (or record video) every answer than type
- You'd like AI to turn recordings into polished written chapters
- You want a full-colour hardcover included in one upfront price
Choose Tell Me Your Story if…
- You'd rather pay once, in pounds, than yearly in dollars
- You want to type some answers and speak others — whichever suits
- You want to try it properly first, free and without a card
- You'd rather go at your own pace, with no year-long plan

Is Remento available in the UK?
Yes. Remento accepts UK customers and ships printed books to the UK for an extra fee. It is priced in US dollars — $99 a year — and books ship from the US, typically arriving in about three weeks.
Does Remento rewrite what my parent says?
You choose. Remento can print a cleaned-up word-for-word transcript (with the ums and ahs removed) or use AI to turn the recording into a written narrative. With Tell Me Your Story, the book uses their own typed or spoken words, and any writing help is optional.
Is Tell Me Your Story cheaper than Remento?
For one printed book, usually. Remento is $99 a year with a colour hardcover included; UK shipping is extra. Tell Me Your Story starts free, with one-time plans from £3.99 and printed softcovers from £21.99 including UK delivery. For several hardcover copies, compare the per-copy prices for your order.
Can my parent type answers instead of recording them?
With Tell Me Your Story, yes — they can type any answer, record it by voice, or do both. Remento is built around recording each answer by voice or video.
