Aeternum
Aeternum is a private, ad-free digital vault for photos, videos, voice notes, and documents, designed for families and close friends to preserve and share memories with granular, circle-based privacy controls. The platform lets users choose who sees each memory down to individual details like birthdays or location, and includes an AI that answers questions only from the memories each person is permitted to see. Aeternum is currently in open beta and works in any browser, with mobile apps in testing.

Problem
Traditional photo-sharing platforms optimize for likes and followers, exposing personal memories to algorithms, advertising, and public feeds. Families and friends lack a private, long-term space to preserve and share meaningful content with precise control over who sees what, and existing services often lock or delete archives when a user passes away.
Solution
Aeternum provides a private vault for photos, video, voice notes, letters, and documents, where users control access at both the memory level and the detail level—choosing who can see a specific photo, and separately who can see their birthday, nickname, or address. Content is stored in built-in cloud storage, and sharing happens through invite-only circles for close family, extended family, and friends. The platform includes an AI that answers questions using only the memories each user is permitted to see, and an Inheritance System, planned for 2027 launch, lets users designate trusted inheritors to keep the vault accessible across generations.
Target Audience
Primary users are families and close-knit friend groups who want to preserve and share personal memories privately, including individuals seeking a long-term, inheritable archive of their life's meaningful moments.
Features
- Detail-level privacy controls that let users choose who sees individual fields like birthday, nickname, or location, separate from memory-level sharing
- Circle-based sharing system for close family, extended family, and friends, with no public feed, follower counts, or algorithmic resurfacing
- Multi-format preservation supporting photos, video, audio recordings, and PDF documents (recipes, letters, certificates) readable in-app
- Built-in cloud storage that powers both memories and sharing, so nothing lives in two places
- AI assistant that answers questions strictly from the memories each user is permitted to see, enforcing privacy boundaries
- Time-locked sharing (coming 2027) that delivers memories on a future date or milestone, such as a graduation letter or birthday message
- Inheritance System with digital inheritor designation, multi-step verification, and controlled unlock according to the user's wishes
