What is a family tree maker?
A family tree maker is a tool that draws a visual chart showing how family members are related across generations. Instead of sketching boxes and lines by hand, you describe the people you want to include and how they are connected, and the tool produces a clean, labeled diagram. Figviz uses AI to generate family tree charts from a plain-English description, so you can go from a list of names to a finished chart in seconds, without design software or templates.

Tips for a clear, accurate family tree
Use full names where possible to avoid confusion between family members who share a first name. Add birth years in parentheses to distinguish generations clearly, especially for large families. For genealogy charts that go back many generations, work from what you know and mark uncertain branches with a question mark. If you are making a chart for a school project, keep it to three generations and use large text so it is readable when printed. For decorative or gift purposes, the tree-shaped style or a colorful chart tends to be the most visually striking.
Family tree maker for school projects and genealogy
Family tree assignments are common at every grade level, from kindergarten "My Family" trees to high school social studies projects. Figviz generates charts sized for standard paper or presentation slides, with large readable labels that teachers can review at a glance. For genealogy research, the ancestor pedigree style and hourglass formats give a systematic view of your lineage that you can share with relatives or attach to a research report. All charts can be downloaded as high-resolution PNGs suitable for printing.
