Document Your Family History

Family traditions are built on day to day moments, but there really should be something more substantial than a social feed to preserve them.

Permanent is here to make sure your children are able to see all those baby photos, vacation videos, or school presentations you've been capturing and collecting every day.

Share the joy of those memories with future generations with a Permanent digital archive.

A Comprehensive Digital Preservation Platform

share archive

Share without oversharing

Our permission controls provide different levels of access for the people you share with, designated by you. All uploaded files are private by default. Share selected files with only the people of your choosing. Make selected files public without risking your copyright. Easily create links to privately shared content with options to restrict how many people can access the content and for how long. Delete it all, completely, at any time.
save metadata

Tell the story of your files.

We’re committed to giving you all the tools you need to make your archive as detailed as possible for others to discover and enjoy. We read metadata from all supported files. Anything that’s missing can be added or edited.
legacy archive

Digital archives make history.

Upload your most important digital materials to your archive and customize the archive profile to represent you. Create multiple archives for other people and organizations. Then establish relationships to share materials between them and create everlasting connections. Collaborate with your community by adding members to any archive to curate a shared history.
archive management

Infinite archives, one account.

Multiple archive management allows you to easily switch between archives and collaborate with others. Create, collaborate and then transfer ownership of an archive for a family member, friend or client from a single account. Create a public profile for the person, family or organizational archives you own that only you can edit. Collaborate on an archive and build a shared history together with everyone who helped make it. Every archive can only have a single owner and ownership can be transferred as needed. Archives can have multiple members with unique roles you can control to manage access and permissions.

The Digital Storage Platform You’ve Been Waiting For

No subscriptions. Just $10 per GB.

Monthly subscriptions expire. On Permanent.org, storage fees are only charged once - $10 per gigabyte of storage, as you need it. We invest your contributions into a nonprofit endowment that covers the perpetual cost of storage and supports a nonprofit organization committed to protecting, migrating and maintaining access to your precious digital content.

Your files are insured for the future. Half the fun of preserving your things is doing it together. Add your family members, friends or teammates as Members of your Permanent Archives so that they can build it with you. You choose a Member’s access level and you can add and change permissions or transfer ownership at any time.

Your memories are always accessible. In order for generations of the future to enjoy your files, they have to be able to open them. We have no idea how file formats will change as time goes on, so we’re planning for it now. We convert your files on upload to a universally standard format so that they can continue to be converted for new technology as time goes on.
