Rodovid is a free online collaborative family tree portal. Originally a Ukrainian project, as of 2023 it had active communities in 25 languages. It provides a web service built using MediaWiki and its own Rodovid Engine software to help store and visualize family relationships.

== About the project == Rodovid was founded in September 2005 by a group of developers and genealogy enthusiasts in Kyiv, Ukraine. The name comes from the Ukrainian word rodovid, meaning "lineage" or "genealogy". As of January 2019, Rodovid had over 1,055,000 total records for individuals across all languages, including over 590,000 in Ukrainian and Russian. Some sources claim that it the second largest free genealogy service online, and the largest in any language other than English. However, the Roglo database seems much larger. It seems that Rodovid is the largest genealogy website under a free license and accessible without restriction.
