MyHeritage is the world's largest family-based social network. We help members create their family trees, share family photos and organize their genealogical information online. In addition to the website, MyHeritage also offers donwloadable family tree software called "Family Tree Builder".

The MyHeritage system contains more than 52 million members and more than 600 million online profiles as of August 2010. There are also more than 15 million family trees and 91 million photos on the site, and the site is accessible in 36 languages.

Family trees can also be visualized and compared to one another to find overlaps. The service includes face recognition technology to tag photos automatically based on who appears in them and leading edge research tools.
