Grief is a long story. It stretches from the smallest details—the way someone laughed, the way they cut fruit in the morning—to the large, luminous chapters we never want to lose. The memory vault is our attempt at building a gentle home for those stories.

Why a vault at all?

Most of us keep memories scattered across devices and accounts. We start a note here, a message there, an album in one app and a voice memo in another. Over time, the fragments outnumber the moments we can easily return to.

The vault’s goal is simple: collect, connect, and preserve.

  • Notes and letters you’ve written
  • Photos and videos from family archives
  • Important dates and milestones
  • Small details that mean the most—favorite meals, phrases, nicknames

What goes inside (and how it’s enriched)

Every item you add can be gently enriched with context:

  • People, places, and relationships
  • Time ranges and significant dates
  • Themes (food, travel, music, rituals)
  • Linked artifacts (a photo tied to a letter, a video paired with an event)

These associations remain yours. They are suggestions you can edit, remove, or confirm. We strive to make the system transparent—never mysterious.

Designed for continuity

We’re building the vault for long horizons. Content is stored with portability in mind, making it easier to export, share with family, and maintain across time. AI helps organize and gently suggest connections—without overwhelming you.

Examples:

  • Link photos from the same event, even if they came from different phones
  • Surface recurring themes in letters and voice notes
  • Create a timeline that feels like a story rather than a spreadsheet

A calm way to contribute

You can contribute on your own or invite trusted family members. The experience is intentionally quiet—no streaks, no urgency. It’s about the feeling of returning to a place that will hold what you give it.

For posterity

The vault is a gift to the future. One day, someone who never met the person you love might learn about them through the words and small artifacts you protect today. That is the promise of a legacy: not grandeur, but presence.

Privacy, ownership, and export

  • You own the materials you add. Period.
  • Export options make stewardship and sharing simple.
  • Clear controls let you decide what is visible and to whom.

A few ways we’ll keep improving

  • Better tools for collaborative curation
  • More thoughtful prompts for recording stories
  • Additional ways to visualize a life—maps, timelines, and more

We’ll keep making the vault more useful and more human, with privacy, continuity, and care at the center of every decision.
