A home for your family's memory
Your family deserves to never disappear.
A voice. A face. A story. What time erases, HERITA keeps alive.
The world is losing its memory.
Every day, something that cannot be replaced disappears with a generation.

A family's story should never have to start from scratch.
This is not a technology problem. It's a human one.
WHAT DISAPPEARS
A silent crisis.
Your grandmother left last year. With her went fifty years of recipes, sayings, stories and memories of migration. Your children may never hear the song she used to sing. They may never know how she laughed. They may never know where the family truly began.
This isn't forgetting. It's disappearance.
Our memories live everywhere. And nowhere.
Photos on old phones. Messages inside forgotten accounts. Documents scattered across devices we no longer use. The memories exist — but they are quietly becoming unreachable.
Families cross borders. Stories don't always cross with them.
Families cross oceans in search of a better life. But traditions, names and stories don't always make the journey. Distance becomes its own kind of forgetting.
Languages. Recipes. Names. Songs.
Oral traditions and family knowledge disappear quietly with every generation that leaves without passing on what it carried.
We create more digital memory than any generation before us. But storing a file is not the same as preserving its story. By 2030, 500 million digital accounts will belong to people who are no longer here — and almost none of them were built to carry a life's memory forward.
This isn't a technology problem.
It's a human one.
Nothing was built for this.
Until now.
Time takes everything. HERITA helps you decide what remains.

We cannot stop time from passing. We can choose what it takes with it.
HERITA'S ANSWER
This is not a platform. It's a home.
HERITA is a living digital home for your family. A place where stories can still be told, photographs still found, voices still heard — long after the people who created them are gone.
Storing a memory is not the same as keeping it alive.
There is a door. Behind it, a home waiting to be filled with what your family doesn't want to lose.
THE HOUSE
A home for everything that makes your family.
Find one another. Tell the story of those who came before you. Preserve your memories, your documents, and your legacy. Then choose what will continue after you.
Ten spaces. One story: yours.
I
HERE, YOUR FAMILY LIVES
01 — THE HEARTH
Where your family comes together.
This is where your Home begins: the people who make it up, the moments they share, and what's happening there today.
02 — THE ROOTS
Your story has a shape.
Build your family tree, link the generations, and trace the places where their paths began, diverged, and came together.
03 — THE CIRCLE
A family isn't simply preserved. It keeps talking.
Talk with your loved ones, open family conversations, share photos and memories, and react together to what makes your story.
II
HERE, YOUR FAMILY IS TOLD AND PRESERVED
04 — MEMORY
What matters deserves better than a forgotten folder.
Bring together the photographs, videos, and documents that tell your family's story. Organize them and choose who they can be shared with.
05 — THE VOICES
Some stories simply begin with a conversation.
Share stories, words, and media in your family's conversations. What is told today can become part of its memory tomorrow.
06 — ORIGINS
Understanding where you come from changes what you pass on.
Explore cultural and genealogical references linked to your family's origins and the places written into its history.
07 — FAMILY HEALTH
Some family stories are passed down differently.
Document the health information useful to your family and trace the histories that can run across several generations.
08 — HERITAGE
A family also passes on what it owns.
Record your family's assets, link them to their owners, and keep an organized view of what makes up your estate.
III
HERE, YOUR FAMILY PASSES IT ON
09 — THE SCHOOL
Getting to know your family can also become a game.
Challenges adapted to each generation help you discover the people, the ties, and the stories that make up your family.
WORLD FIRST
10 — TRANSMISSION
Some words are meant to arrive at just the right moment.
Prepare a message today for someone you love. HERITA can deliver it on a chosen date, at a set age, or according to the transmission conditions you define.
Ten spaces. One House.
And when all these rooms come together, a family never disappears.
Every family carries a world.
Different languages, countries, generations, stories. And everywhere, the same need: to preserve what matters and pass it on.
GENERATIONS
Those who came before us.
ORIGINS
The places we come from.
TIES
Those who connect us.
TRANSMISSION
What we choose to make last.
OUR COMMITMENT
The Guardian's Oath
Entrusting a family's memory takes more than technology. It takes a word.
The Guardian's Oath
Irrevocable Commitment · HERITA
What you entrust to HERITA remains yours. Your memories never become our property — we hold them, we never claim them.
Your memory is not for sale. We do not sell it, we do not analyze it for commercial purposes. Not today. Not tomorrow. In no form.
You decide what is seen, by whom, and how far. Even within one family, no one enters where you haven't opened the door.
HERITA doesn't exist to lock your memory away, but to let it continue — passed on to those you choose, today and after you.

Proof of a Life
These are not objects. They are proof of a life.
A memory never disappears all at once. It fades, one souvenir at a time.

Every memory you preserve today becomes a letter addressed to those not yet born.
Guardians' Stories
Families. True stories.
The Ngono family
Montréal, Canada
In twenty years, my grandchildren will still hear their great-grandfather's voice from Cameroon. Not just a photo — his story, his voice, his proverbs. That's HERITA.
The Beaumont family
Lyon, France
My grandfather recorded a message for my future children. He passed away six months later. That message will cross time. It is our family's most precious treasure.
The Kouassi family
Abidjan, Ivory Coast
The Health section probably saved my son's life. We discovered a hereditary disease no one in our family knew about. HERITA is not just memory. It's protection.
The next story could be yours.
Some memories deserve more than a place in a cloud.
HERITA EDITIONS
