The Intergenerational Connection Problem
Across many families, especially in fast-paced cities, older generations are living longer but often feel more isolated, while younger people feel disconnected from their roots. Important stories, values, and memories stay trapped in casual chats, old photos, and fading recollections—and are usually lost when a parent or grandparent passes away. At the same time, young people are searching for more purposeful roles in their families and communities, beyond school and work.

What problem are we solving in society?
Last Generation
There is a narrow window where parents and grandparents are still here, still able to share, while Gen Z and millennials have both the digital skills and emotional awareness to ask better questions.

About Us
Our Team
Shane Long is the founder of Adoras. He spent over 15 years in apparel and product design, leading commercialization and technical development for premium and performance brands across North America and Asia. That work taught him a core lesson: products only succeed when they truly resonate with people’s lives and emotions.
Drawing on that design background, Shane transitioned into building technology products, using AI-assisted coding to translate human feelings and family dynamics into digital experiences. Adoras combines his expertise in storytelling, user experience, and cross-cultural collaboration with a personal conviction: that preserving family stories is not just sentimental—it is a form of social resilience, mental wellbeing, and purpose for both elders and youth.
