GTF Research Companion

About

GTF Research Companion brings your genealogy research workflow to any website.

While browsing Ancestry, FamilySearch, FindAGrave, newspaper archives, social media, or any webpage with family history information, open the side panel to:

• Capture the full page or just specific images—your choice • Right-click any image to save it directly to your tree • Let AI extract names, dates, places, and relationships automatically • Review and approve extracted facts before adding to your tree • Keep notes as you research

The extension works alongside Gather the Family (gatherthefamily.com), a modern genealogy platform for building and sharing your family tree.

How it works:

Browse genealogy websites, social media, or anywhere with family info
Capture the whole page, or right-click an image to save just that
Review AI-extracted facts and images
Approve what you want to add to your tree
Your data stays private. We only capture pages you explicitly choose, and the original webpage content is not stored—only the genealogical facts and images you approve.

Requires a Gather the Family account (free to create).
