PreservationSimple on purpose
Preserve it once. Keep it forever.
Your family's memories shouldn't disappear because someone stopped paying a subscription. With Preservation, everything you collect stays yours: recordings, photographs, stories, transcripts and family materials remain available even if you never pay us again.
What your family keeps, no matter what
Every recording, photograph, transcript and story: readable, listenable, and yours to download. Forever, whatever you decide about paying.
What stops without a plan
The living part: asking the archive questions, and adding new stories. Continue with Preservation+ yearly, or go lifetime once.

Your family's history is never trapped here
Whatever plan you choose, you can export the archive. Download the original recordings. Keep the photographs. Save the transcripts and stories. Preservation makes your family's history easier to keep. It does not make your family dependent on us to keep it.
Don't decide from a pricing page.
Start with a few questions. Hear what your parent or grandparent says when they're asked something nobody thought to ask before. Then decide whether it's worth preserving.
