A photo album can’t answer questions. That’s the entire problem, and it’s why voice notes and old videos stop being useful the moment you actually need something from them.
EchoVault builds an Echo of you through guided check-in sessions with an AI biographer that draws real stories out over time. Most products in this space generate an avatar from a few minutes of uploaded footage. This runs the other direction, so the echo has months of first-person material to work with and can answer questions the person never explicitly addressed. Responses are retrieval-grounded against what was actually said, which keeps it from fabricating memories that never happened.
Three modalities, all live. Text is free with unlimited sessions. $12/mo adds a cloned voice. $99.99 one-time unlocks a lifelike video avatar with 3 months of real-time face to face conversation included, then $18/mo after. The video tier is an actual live exchange, not a rendered clip playing back.
You designate custodians while you’re alive. After a full year of no account activity, access transfers to them automatically, no legal process required.
Built solo, nights only.

Happy to get into the architecture if anyone asks.
