The Pillars of Home
Thoughtfully engineered spaces designed to nurture legacy and foster deep connections across generations.
Share: Moments & Memories
Every candid snapshot, milestone video, and voice memo — gathered in one warm, private feed. Your inner circle gets instant access with just a shared family password. No accounts, no friction, no strangers.
- Inner circle access — one shared password, zero sign-ups
- Family admin controls who sees what and when
- Daily Moments — story circles for quick everyday snapshots
- A smart timeline sorts memories by season and "on this day"
Preserve: The Vault
Securely store high-fidelity originals of your most precious assets. From deed documents to rare family photos — encrypted with AES-256 in your browser before they're uploaded.
- AES-256 encryption
- Encrypted on your device, before upload
- Time-locked capsules — sealed until a date you choose
Write: The Letters
Schedule messages for the future. Congratulate a grandchild on a wedding you might not attend, or share wisdom across decades.
Evolve: Recipe Tree
Recipes aren't static. Watch how Grandma's pasta evolved through three generations, with notes, variations, and photo logs of every holiday meal.
Create: Digital Scrapbook
Turn your family memories into handcrafted digital pages. Drag and drop polaroid photos, playful stickers, and personal notes onto a freeform canvas — then export your finished book as a PDF to print or share.
- Drag-and-drop canvas with photos, stickers & text
- Polaroid-style photo frames with rotation & resize
- Export finished scrapbooks to PDF

Open Source
Kaydo is built in the open. Audit the code, contribute features, or self-host for your family. No black boxes — except the ones you create.
Works like an app
Two zones, one home
Everyday sharing should be effortless. Your most precious things deserve more. Kaydo separates the two — by design.
The Family Feed
Photos, videos and voice memos for your inner circle. One shared family password gets grandparents in without creating an account — convenient on purpose.
- One shared password for the inner circle
- No accounts or app installs for viewers
- Family admins decide what gets shared
- Encrypted on your device too — convenience without the trade-off
Vault & Letters
Your originals, documents and future letters are encrypted with AES-256 in your browser before they're uploaded. What reaches our servers is ciphertext.
- AES-256-GCM, encrypted on your device
- Unlocked only inside your family's private space
- Full export any time — it stays yours
Your data is a precious legacy, not a training set.
No AI Training
We strictly prohibit the use of your private photos or text for LLM or AI generative model training. Ever.
Encrypted on Your Device
Your photos, videos, letters and Vault originals are encrypted with AES-256 in your browser before they're uploaded — our servers store ciphertext, not your pictures.
Ad-Free Forever
We are funded by families, for families. We will never sell your attention to advertisers.
