Hi, we're Artifcts®. We are where ‘stuff’ and stories meet. Got 'stuff?' We all do! We collect, accumulate, and inherit (and one day may inherit) a lot of ‘stuff’ in our daily lives. Artifcts helps you keep track of what it is, why it matters, and what to do with it next, so you can declutter and organize the ‘stuff’ and the memories. YOUR STORIES, YOUR WAY Capture your stories and memories with as few or many words as you like. No story burden here! Add photos and videos and supporting documentation. Each Artifct is fast and easy to create and share. DECLUTER & DOWNSIZE The memories will be here on Artifcts, even if the ‘stuff’ finds new homes. BE ORGANIZED, BE READY End the chaos of sifting through email, cloud, social media, photo apps and more for key moments. Every item is taggable, searchable, shareable, and downloadable on Artifcts! CONNECT Relive the moments and story-share together on your terms, privately or publicly. PREPARE Add your Artifcts to wills, insurance, and even light inventories for moves/storage.

We’re delighting people from 16 to 91 years of age and helping you document what matters most! Here’s what some of our members have to say: My first wave of Artifcts—a huge one—is my parents’ stuff. With six kids, ten grandkids, and seventeen great grandkids, there will be a lot of interest in their “stuff” for a long time to come. - Lynne, WI Artifcts is a great tool to help me think about what actually means something to me. It’s a good way to “Kondo.” - Holly, Washington D.C. Knowing something’s physical value is good. Being able to inventory and track our belongings is great. Remembering the value to the heart – is priceless. Artifcts bridges the gap and does it all. - Jamie, CA I’m not a hoarder, I’m a collector. The objects in my life are important to me because they contextualize my experiences. Everything has a story. What I love about Artifcts is that it gives me a place to document and share everything from family heirlooms to mundane everyday objects most people take for granted. - Matt, TX With two kids in kindergarten, piles and piles of artwork came home from school, and I was Artifcting as it did. It was a relief to get it put away and know that I’ll have these cute and special pieces of art forever in Artifcts, and that my kids and I can browse through them some day when they are older. - Wendy, TX When I saw how my granddaughter’s eyes lit up as I shared stories while we Artifcted together, I wanted to Artifct even more. The time together reliving these moments behind the objects inspired me to pass down some items to my family now. - Martha, VA I’m a realtor and Artifcts creates an opportunity for my clients to keep track of things as they downsize or as they transition to a new season of life, like having babies. You have the freedom to not have to choose what you remember and what you don’t because now you can keep the history alive even if you let go of the actual artifacts. - Heather, TX Privacy Policy: https://artifcts.com/privacy-policy Terms of Use: https://artifcts.com/terms-of-use Content & Community Policy: https://artifcts.com/community-policy You can create up to 5 Artifcts for free.

ArrowPoint is the app for arrowhead hunters and artifact collectors. Identify a find from a photo, keep your whole collection in one place, display it in true-to-size frames, and see what other collectors are finding across the country. SMART ID: IDENTIFY A POINT FROM A PHOTO Take a photo and ArrowPoint's AI, trained on thousands of real projectile points, suggests the most likely types, ranked for the state where you found it. Open any match to compare photos, time period, region and typical size in the Library. MANUAL ID: NARROW IT DOWN YOURSELF Prefer to work it out by hand? Step through shape, base, notches and region until you land on the types that fit. THE LIBRARY A searchable reference of point types with photos, descriptions, time periods and the states where each is found. Filter by state, period and shape. THE VAULT: YOUR COLLECTION Log every find with photos, notes, type, measurements and where it was found. Sort, search and filter your collection, and see your finds on your own private map by state and county. FRAMES Lay your points out on a felt display board at their real size, just like a case on the wall. Choose from seven frame sizes, remove photo backgrounds automatically, arrange and rotate each piece, then save or share the finished frame. THE MAP Spin the globe, tap into any state and drill down to the county to see where finds are being shared. Exact locations are never shown: finds appear only at county level. COMMUNITY Share finds, follow other collectors, comment, and get help identifying a tough piece. Share any find in one tap. SAFE ON EVERY DEVICE Your collection is saved to your account, so it's there when you change phones. COLLECT RESPONSIBLY Always follow local, state and federal laws, and get permission before hunting on private land. ArrowPoint is free to use with monthly limits on Smart ID, background removal, Vault finds and frames. ArrowPoint Pro and Premium raise or remove those limits. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings.
