RootED is launching soon
RootED was founded on a simple, personal belief: language and culture are too precious to lose between generations. We want the next generation of children to answer a grandparent without reaching for a translation, to grow up inside the stories, the festivals, and the small everyday words that made us who we are.
Three different stories, one shared question: how do we make sure the next generation doesn't lose our language, our roots.
The RootED Team
Sony Gajjala
First-gen Indian-American, who wants her future kids to sit with their grandparents and actually speak with them.
Batisse Kashanchi
Second-gen Iranian, raised a step removed from a language and culture he is eager to retain.
Keep their stories close, in every language.
RootED is opening soon to a first circle of families. Join the waitlist and we'll save you a spot.
Founding families get early access and free features when we launch.
No spam, just launch updates. Coming to iOS & Android, Fall 2026.
