Data Agent
Parses GEDCOM and normalizes dates, names, places, and relationships.
7gens helps families turn scattered family data — GEDCOM files, documents, photos, notes, and memories — into a beautiful, structured family history book.
7gens was founded by Dasha Baklanova — a software engineer and genealogist.
Dasha was born in Kazakhstan, and one of the first questions that pulled her into genealogy was deeply personal: how did our family end up there?
Over time, her own family tree grew to more than 1,200 people. The research became too meaningful to stay inside genealogy software, tables, and scattered notes. When relatives started asking for a book, the idea behind 7gens became clear: family history deserves to become something people can read, hold, share, and pass on.
Family history often lives in chaos: in GEDCOM files, old photographs, scanned documents, notes, family chats, and the memories of older relatives.
Many families already have valuable data, but no clear way to turn it into something finished. Classical genealogy agencies do deep work, but for most families it is slow and expensive. Ordinary tree services help build a tree, but rarely turn it into a living story.
7gens sits between those worlds: the depth of a genealogical approach, the speed of AI tools, and a result in the shape of a book the family can read, share, and pass on.
A GEDCOM file, notes, documents, photographs, links to sources, or a free-form description of your family history.
Agents normalize names, dates, places, and relationships, then surface contradictions and gaps.
The system helps build the structure of a family book: lines, generations, migrations, key events, and historical context.
The family can refine, correct, and add memories, photographs, and commentary.
The final result is ready to read, to share with relatives, and — in time — to print.
7gens works like a studio where different AI agents handle different parts of the process. One puts the data in order, another searches for gaps, a third helps with sources, a fourth turns facts into chapters, and another prepares the structure of the future book. Together they deliver what used to require months of manual work from a full team.

Classical genealogy agencies do important, deep work — but that approach is often expensive, slow, and out of reach for most families.
7gens doesn't replace the value of genealogical research. We rethink the process: we break it into clear steps, use specialized AI agents for the heavy lifting, and give the family more control over how the story gets told.
Our goal is premium quality, available not only to those who can afford a multi-month bespoke project.
A family tree is sensitive data: names, dates, photographs, documents, relationships between people, migrations, family secrets, and sometimes painful historical events.
That is why privacy at 7gens is not an extra feature — it is part of the product's design. A family should understand what data has been uploaded, what has been generated, where the facts are confirmed, and where there are only hypotheses.
We design 7gens so the user stays in control of their family data, can correct results, and can clearly separate confirmed information from assumptions.
7gens is currently in an early stage. We are building the first version of the product, starting with the GEDCOM-to-book scenario: upload an existing family tree, put the data in order, and turn it into the basis for a family book.
From there we will add work with photographs, documents, archive requests, collaborative editing, and printed books.
