How do I use Life Resume?

What Life Resume is

Life Resume is a structured document generated from your timeline. It automatically populates six sections: Career, Education, Residences, Travel, Relationships, and Milestones.

Unlike My Story, which is a narrative, Life Resume is formatted like a document — organized, scannable, and suited for sharing with family, a biographer, or anyone who wants a clear picture of your life.

How to generate one

Open Life Resume from the main navigation. Choose a tone (Reflective, Warm, Professional, Poetic, Factual, or Inspirational) and a length, then generate. The document populates from your existing timeline events.

Once you have three or more pinned locations across your events, a world map becomes available and you can toggle "Include world map" in the setup panel.

Generating a resume counts against a monthly quota: Free accounts get 2 generations per calendar month, Premium accounts get 10.

Exporting and sharing

Viewing your Life Resume and downloading it as HTML are available on all plans. The Print / Save as PDF export requires Premium.

Premium accounts can also save version history and create shareable links so others can view your resume without needing an account.

Rules of Thumb

• Add location data to your events before generating — the map option only appears once at least three events have pinned locations.
• Richer event descriptions improve the quality of each section, especially Career and Milestones.
• Save a version before sharing so you can always restore a specific draft later.

Common Mistakes

• Generating before adding location data and wondering why the map option is missing.
• Not reviewing the generated sections before exporting — the AI works from your events, so sparse events produce sparse output.
• Regenerating repeatedly to fine-tune wording — each generation spends one of your monthly quota.
