Senarra
For HereAfter families

Bringing your HereAfter recordings home

HereAfter AI has closed. If you have an export of your family's recordings, or you are still waiting on one, we will import it into Senarra for free. No card, no trial clock, no upgrade required.

And on the day it lands you can export the whole thing straight back out again, in files that open without us.

First, get your files

If you don't have your export yet, that part comes before anything to do with us, and it is the part that matters most.

Email support@hereafter.ai from the address your HereAfter account is registered under, and ask for a complete export: the audio recordings, transcripts if they exist, the interview questions each recording answers, and any photos attached to your stories. Ask for MP3 audio. Then give them real time to answer and follow up weekly, politely, until the files are in your hands.

No retrieval deadline has been announced. That is not the same as having time. Source: afterlife.ai's writeup of the shutdown.

You do not need a Senarra account to do any of that, and we would tell you the same thing if you never came back to this page.

Then, if you want them in Senarra

The import runs inside the Senarra app, on the free membership. It takes a few minutes and you do not need a card.

  1. Open Senarra and go to Profile, then Import Memories

    Free membership is fine. You do not need to have recorded anything here first.

  2. Select the files HereAfter sent you

    Pick them all at once. Audio in MP3, M4A, WAV or AAC, and photos in JPEG, PNG, HEIC or WebP. You choose who the recordings are of, and we suggest a title for each one from its filename so you are not staring at a list of numbers. Rename anything that guessed wrong before you commit.

  3. Each recording becomes an ordinary memory

    Senarra transcribes the audio, files it under the person it belongs to, and includes it in your archive and your exports from then on. If a file fails, we tell you which one and let you retry. A partial import is reported as five of seven, never as done.

Questions people are asking

Is it really free?
Yes. The import costs nothing, it doesn't need a card, and it doesn't start a trial that turns into a bill. Senarra's free membership doesn't expire, and imported recordings stay playable on it. Paid memberships exist and they buy you more room and more features, but they are not the price of getting your family's recordings out of limbo.
What formats can you take?
Audio as MP3, M4A, WAV or AAC, and photos as JPEG, PNG, HEIC or WebP. That covers what HereAfter sends. If your export arrives as a zip, unzip it first and select the files inside. Anything we cannot take is named on screen rather than quietly dropped.
Do the transcripts and interview questions come across?
Not yet, and I would rather say so than let you find out. Today Senarra imports the audio and the photos, and transcribes each recording itself, so you get a fresh transcript rather than HereAfter's. The interview question each recording answered does not carry over automatically. Keep the export folder HereAfter sent you, because that is where those questions and transcripts live, and ingesting them is on our list.
What do you do with the recordings?
Store them for you and play them back. We do not use your family's recordings to train anything, we do not synthesize new speech in your relative's voice unless you explicitly ask for that and the recordings are yours to use that way, and we do not invent words nobody said.
