Everything Vault Does Today

Collections

A camera roll is chronological. Life isn't. The photos from one weekend are scattered across three days, two phones, and forty screenshots you took of parking signs. Chronology is how a file system thinks. It isn't how you remember. Collections let you group what belongs together. A trip. A first year. One long summer. Give it a name and a place, and it becomes somewhere you go back to rather than something you scroll past. Collections can be private, which is the default, or shared with people you choose.

Search

Type what you remember, not what the file was called. Every photo and video you add is read and keyworded automatically on upload. You never tag anything. Search a place, a person, a thing, an occasion, and what comes back is everything that matches, grouped by the collection it belongs to. Automatic tagging isn't new. Most photo tools do some version of it. The difference is what happens with the result: here it's in front of you rather than buried under something else competing for your attention.

What Vault reads from a photo

Open any moment and the details are already there.

The capture date. The location, resolved to a real place rather than coordinates. AI tags describing what's actually in the frame. Space for a caption and for tagging the people who were there. This matters more than it sounds. An unlabelled photograph is a photograph of strangers to anyone who comes after you. Archives live or die on their labels, and most people never write a single one. Vault fills in what it can automatically, then shows it to you plainly. Getting the labelling done is the easy half. Making it something you'd actually open is the part we spent our time on.

People

Vault groups faces across your library. Search a name and get a lifetime of someone, rather than the twelve photos you happened to remember. You control this entirely. You name the groups, you can merge duplicates, and you can remove any person at any time.

Sharing

Every collection starts private. When you share one, you decide who can see it, and what they can do: view only, download, upload their own photos into it, or collaborate fully. A wedding, a family trip, a year of someone's childhood. The people who were there can add what they took, so the record ends up complete rather than split across a dozen phones. Nothing is public unless you make it so. There is no feed, no discovery, no algorithm deciding what you see.

On your Home Screen

Vault runs in the browser, which means no App Store and no download. Add it to your Home Screen and it opens like any other app, straight into your moments.

What We Don't Do

• We don't sell your personal information.
• We don't claim ownership of your photos or videos.
• We don't use what you upload to train general-purpose AI models without your explicit permission.
• We don't show you ads, and there is no feed to perform for.

Plans

• The free Vault holds 75 photos and three collections, with AI keyword search included. It's meant to be enough to decide whether this is for you.
• Membership is $199 a year: unlimited photos at full resolution, unlimited collections, video for everyday moments, face grouping, and shared collections.
• Custom is for larger archives, whether that's decades of family photos, a professional library, or substantial video. It includes priority keywording, dedicated onboarding and migration, custom access controls, and white-glove support. If that sounds like yours, we'd like to hear about it: info@vaultmomento.com

What should Vault do next?

Vault is early, and a lot of what gets built next will come from what people ask for. If there's something you'd want it to do, tell us.
