Moment Vault
Open beta. Free to start.

Save the videos your family will want twenty years from now.

Moment Vault is a tiny tool for collecting short videos from the people you love. Birthdays, weddings, memorials, the days you don't want to forget. Family records from their phone. You keep every clip, plus a highlight reel to share.

Free while in beta. Your videos, your originals, always downloadable.

How it works

Three steps. I tried to make the rest disappear.

01

Start a vault

Give it a name your family will recognize. Add a short note so people know what you're hoping for. Takes about a minute.

02

Share the link

Send it to everyone you want to hear from. They tap, record from their phone, and they're done. No accounts. No downloads.

03

Approve and keep

Pick the clips you love. Download every original as a ZIP whenever you want. We also build a highlight reel you can share.

Why this and not a shared folder

Group chats and Google Drives work fine, until your aunt records vertical and your dad uploads a .mov from 2019.

📱

Record from a phone, that's it

Contributors tap your link and record. No app to install. No account to make. Works on the phone they already use.

Highlight reel, built for you

After the vault fills up, we put together a shareable cut. Quality-aware, transcript-aware, ready in minutes.

📦

Your originals, always

Every clip downloadable as a ZIP, organized by milestone. Your memories live with you. We're just where they get collected.

🔒

Private by default

Vaults are yours alone. You hand out the link. You approve every clip before it's part of the collection.

🎯

Organized by chapter

Milestones let you group clips: the wedding, the speeches, the kids' birthdays. Each clip lands where it belongs.

💌

Reminders that don't feel like spam

When someone hasn't shared yet, we send a friendly nudge. You set the tone. We handle the sending.

You get both

The highlight reel, and every original.

A polished cut for the people who'll watch it once. A full archive of every clip for the family member who'll watch them all in fifteen years.

FAQ

Is my vault private?

Yes. Only people you invite can contribute, and only you decide what gets approved. Nothing is public unless you share it.

Does anyone need to install an app?

Nope. Contributors tap your link and record straight from their phone browser. Works on iPhone, Android, anything from the last five years.

What happens to my videos?

They stay in your vault as long as you want them there. You can download the full ZIP archive any time. If you ever leave, you take everything with you.

How much does it cost?

Free during beta. Paid tiers are coming later for bigger vaults and extras like custom branding. Early users get grandfathered pricing.

Can I limit who contributes?

Yes. You can send a unique link to each person, or post one open link for a walk-up event. Either way, every clip needs your approval before it joins the vault.

Who made this?

I did. I'm a dad in Austin who wanted more video of my grandfather than the one VHS tape we have. Read more at jonathanmeneses.com.
