Not sure which path to choose?

A few common starting points we see from families. Pick the one that sounds closest and we'll help you tune the details.

If you have a gathering coming up

You have a birthday, holiday, or weekend together in the next 3–6 weeks and want to leave with something real you can share.

Start with: Gift Tier.

If you're planning a deeper project

You're thinking about legacy this year: multiple conversations, more than one storyteller, or a fuller record of turning points and values.

Start with: Legacy Tier.

If you're creating a family heirloom

You want a white-glove, multi-session experience that can sit alongside photo albums, letters, and keepsakes as part of a long-term archive.

Start with: Heirloom Tier.

Questions about commitments and logistics

What if we need to reschedule?

Life happens. If someone gets sick, travel shifts, or the timing feels off, we'll work with you to move sessions where we can. The goal is a calm, present conversation, not forcing it to fit a calendar box.

What if they're nervous about technology?

That's common. We keep the interface simple, test microphones ahead of time, and move at their pace. You can be in the room, join remotely, or let them record on their own schedule. We never pressure someone who's uncomfortable.

What if we change our minds?

You stay in control. If EchoVault doesn't feel right, talk to us. We can stop further sessions, and we'll explain in plain language what we can remove or delete and what's already been shared with your family.

Do we have to decide the tier alone?

No. Tell us who you're recording for, what the timing looks like, and how deep you want to go. We'll recommend a starting tier and adjust with you. There's no penalty for starting smaller and expanding if it makes sense.

How we handle your stories

EchoVault is built for families first, not for ads or engagement graphs. We treat every recording as part of a private family archive, not content.

In plain language

EchoVault is being built to keep your recordings private by default. Only you and the people you invite should be able to access them. We don't want your family's stories showing up in ads, training demos, or anywhere else you didn't intend. If you ever want to stop, talk to us and we'll explain in clear language what we can remove or delete and what's already been shared with your family.

If you speak more in specs

We're implementing standard safeguards as the product matures: encrypted transport (TLS), encryption at rest, least-privilege access, and clear retention/deletion controls. We'll publish the exact details as we finalize infrastructure and hosting, and we'll answer any questions directly if you need specifics for your situation.

If you have stricter requirements, for example specific retention windows or export formats, reach out. We'd rather talk through what's available now and what's in progress than gloss over the details. Read our Trust & Safety overview.
