Life stats: your whole life, counted
Days lived. Cities called home. Career chapters, countries visited, your most eventful decade. Life stats are what a lifetime looks like in numbers — and yours take about a minute to start counting.
What one charted life adds up to
These are the real stats LifeCharted computes for Alex Rivera, the sample life in our public demo — not a mock-up. Every number below is produced by the same code that would run on your own timeline.
What counts as a life stat
How much life there has been
The universal layer. Days lived, weeks, seasons turned, birthdays counted — these need nothing but a birthdate, which is why every life stats calculator starts here. They are true of everyone born the same day as you, and they are still worth seeing once.
Where the life happened
The first stats that are actually yours. How many places you have called home, how many countries you have set foot in, how many continents that spans. People who have moved a lot are usually surprised by the count — the moves feel individual until you see them totalled.
What the working years held
Roles held, how long each lasted, the gaps between them, the direction they trace. A career reads differently as a list of tenures than it does as a memory. The average tenure alone tends to say something you had not put into words.
When the life turned
The most interesting stats are about rate, not total. Which decade held the most beginnings. Which single year had the most happen at once. The longest quiet stretch. These are the numbers that point at the chapters — the ones you cannot get from a birthdate.
How LifeCharted computes your stats
You chart what happened
Homes, jobs, schools, trips, milestones — each one an entry on a timeline, with whatever dates you actually remember. That is the only input. There is no stats form to fill in and nothing to tally by hand.
The numbers derive themselves
Every stat is computed from those entries. Log a move and your city count changes. Backdate a job you forgot and your career years recalculate — the stats always describe the whole timeline, not the order you happened to enter it in.
They go where a calculator cannot
A birthdate gets you the universal numbers. Your actual history gets you the ones worth knowing: the decade that held the most change, the longest you ever stayed anywhere, how far the map of your life really stretches.
What it can do
Automatically computed from your timeline
Every stat is derived from your events in real time. Add a job, and your career years update. Log a move, and your city count adjusts. There's no manual entry — the numbers follow the life, not the other way around.
Hero stat plus eight breakdowns
Your total events logged sits front and center. Below it: years logged, employers, cities, countries, travel events, health events, milestones, and relationships. Each stat drills through to the contributing events — one tap to see exactly what's behind the number.
Your geographic footprint
Continents reached. Countries visited. States or provinces. Cities. And an estimated distance traveled across all logged trips. For people who've lived across the world, the geographic stats are often the most striking thing to see in one place.
Life in Numbers — shareable snapshot
With Premium, generate a shareable "Life in Numbers" card — a designed summary of your top stats that you can send as a link or download as a PDF. Think of it as a personal year-in-review that covers your whole life, not just the last twelve months.
Pre-packaged context for AI features
When AI Insights or My Story need to understand the shape of your life, they receive your stats as structured JSON — not raw event text. This makes AI responses faster, cheaper, and more accurate. The numbers do the work of summarizing before Claude ever reads a single event.

Common questions
What are life stats?
The measurable shape of a life: how long you've lived, where, doing what, with how much change. Anything on a timeline can be counted — days, homes, jobs, countries, chapters.
How do I calculate my life stats?
The universal ones (days lived, weekends, seasons) need only your birthdate and some date arithmetic. The personal ones (cities, careers, most eventful decade) need your actual history, which is what a LifeCharted timeline computes automatically — no tallying by hand.
Is there a free life stats app?
LifeCharted's free plan is one: chart up to 25 real events and your stats compute from your own life, not averages. You can also explore a complete sample life in the demo without creating an account at all.
What life stats can LifeCharted track?
Events logged, cities and countries, years covered, continents, career roles and tenures, most eventful decade, travel patterns — refreshed automatically as your timeline grows.
Do I have to enter exact dates?
No. Approximate years are fine ("the late 70s" works), and stats compute from whatever precision you give.
Is my data used for anything else?
No. Timelines are private by default, nothing trains AI models, and you can export everything anytime.
Your numbers are already in your life.
They just have not been counted yet. Chart what happened, and the stats compute themselves — and keep recomputing every time you add a year.
