About

Families lose their own history by accident

Album exists because that keeps happening, and because none of the obvious alternatives were built to stop it.

What we kept seeing

Photographs vanish when a phone is stolen or a laptop dies. They get buried under new messages in a family group within days. And the stories, the part nobody thinks to write down, leave with the elders who carried them.

None of that happens because families do not care. It happens because a phone is built to be replaced and a group chat is built to scroll away.

What we built instead

A private website for one family, on an address that family owns. Only the people invited can see it. It holds the family tree, the photographs, the videos and the stories, and the private records the next generation will need: where the will is kept, and what runs in the family.

Every photograph is copied to separate storage every night, so a mistake can be undone rather than mourned.

Three generations together
