Linaya: Preserve Your Family's Story, Roots and Heritage

Linaya is a bilingual genealogy and family-heritage platform built specifically for Central Africa — Cameroon and the wider CEMAC region — where family structures, including polygamous households, don't always fit genealogy tools designed elsewhere. Linaya's tagline says it plainly: "Your family. Your roots. Your story."

Beyond building an interactive family tree, Linaya extends into a full ecosystem: Families (viewing household groups across your whole tree), Stories (recording text, audio, or video memories tied to real people), Archives (keeping every photo and document safely organized), and Roots (grouping relatives by ethnic group, clan, or mother tongue). Every tree can be shared, exported, and printed with a watermark, and every part of the platform is available in both French and English.

• Interactive, polygamy-aware family tree builder
• Individual life stories with text, document, audio, and video attachments
• Central photo and document archive, searchable and filterable
• Roots view — group relatives by ethnicity, clan, or mother tongue
• GEDCOM import/export and print/watermarked tree export
• Fully bilingual (French/English) experience

Linaya turns family history from a private notebook into something the whole family can build, explore, and keep alive together.
