Be unforgettable. Literally. Curio Blvd is a private home for your memories, your family history, and the details that are too often lost between decades and generations. Preserve your stories, family history, voices, memories, recipes, records, keepsakes, and more — all in one place. THE TIME CAPSULE Record the stories you never want to lose. Sit with your grandmother and capture her life story while you still can. Ask your parents the questions you’ve always meant to ask. Record your own memories for your children someday. The Time Capsule is built to preserve family history through video, audio, writing, and handwriting — so future generations can know more than names and dates. They can know the person. CURIO CLOUD A memory is rarely just one photo. Curio Cloud lets you preserve a memory the way it actually happened — with the recordings, scans, links, notes, documents, photos, videos, and keepsakes that bring the whole story back to life. Think of it as a digital shadowbox. Build it inside Curio, then turn it into something physical with a Curio Blvd Shadowbox shipped to your door. FAMILY RECIPES Keep the recipes your family knows by heart. Create a digital recipe box filled with family recipes, handwritten cards, photos, stories, and even recordings of your loved ones explaining how they make them. Because sometimes “a pinch of this” and “cook it until it looks right” are part of the recipe too. YOUR FAMILY TREE Build your family tree — then bring the people in it to life. Each person gets their own profile, complete with a life timeline, photos, documents, records, stories, and memories. MEANINGFUL DATES Birthdays. Anniversaries. Family milestones. The dates you never want to forget. Add the dates that matter, and Curio Blvd will remind you starting 14 days before — all the way through the day itself. OLD PHOTOS, BROUGHT BACK Restore faded, creased, scratched, or damaged family photographs in seconds. SHARE IT WITH THE PEOPLE IN IT Your family history doesn’t have to belong to just one person. Share any part of your Curio — including your Time Capsule, Curio Cloud, recipes, family tree, and memories — and choose whether family members can simply view it or add to it themselves. Everyone you love can have a Curio of their own. Switch to your grandmother’s Curio, sit beside her and record her answers, add her photos and recipes, and keep everything under her name and her story — instead of mixing it into yours. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Everything you add to Curio Blvd is private by default, and yours until you decide otherwise. MEMBERSHIP A Curio Blvd Membership unlocks the Time Capsule, Curio Cloud, Family Recipes, Family Tree, and more. Already redeemed a code from your Curio Blvd Time Capsule Journal? That Time Capsule is yours for life. Meaningful Dates are free for everyone, and so is opening anything your family shares with you.
