EchoVault helps you build something your family can turn to after you're gone: an AI Echo trained on your real stories, your real voice, and your own way of seeing the world. This isn't a chatbot performing as you. It's a living record of who you actually were, built while you're still here to shape it yourself. You build your Echo through Check-Ins, simple guided conversations with an AI biographer. You talk, it listens, and your stories become part of your Echo's memory. Over time, your Echo learns how you think, what you value, and what you'd want the people you love to know. You choose exactly who gets access. We call them custodians, usually the people closest to you, like a spouse, a child, or a sibling. Your Echo stays private until a full year of inactivity on your account confirms it's time, and only then does it open up to your custodians. No one gets early access, and nothing happens before it's supposed to. As your Echo grows, premium tiers let you add your real voice with EchoVault Voice or a full avatar with EchoVault Avatar, so the people you love aren't just reading your words. They're hearing and seeing you. Pricing: Echo Seed: free, text-based Echo, up to 3 custodians Echo Voice: $12/month Echo Prime: $18/month One-time video avatar setup: $99.99, includes 3 months of Echo Prime EchoVault won the Inspirational Story award at the World's Largest Hackathon, presented by Bolt. Start building your Echo today. The people who love you deserve more than memories. They deserve you, in your own words and your own voice, for as long as they need you.
