ABOUT ATLAS

More than a hard drive of files.

Atlas is a place to actually live with your digitised archive — not just store it. Index a tape and Atlas helps you catalogue what's inside: the people, the places, the moments, and the stories only you can add. Built by many of the team behind EachMoment, who spent a decade digitising people's tapes, films, slides and photos — and wanted somewhere those memories could finally be opened, understood and shared.

THE STORY

Why we built Atlas.

For years, we'd hand a customer a hard drive of MP4s and that would be that. They'd thank us, pay, and disappear. A few months later we'd hear what really happened: the drive went in a drawer. They'd watched two clips, meant to sit down with the family to do the rest, and never had.

We started keeping count. About one in five customers told us, unprompted, some version of the same line: I just don't know where to start. There were three hundred clips. There were nine boxes of slides. There were forty-five hours of cine. The drive was a problem they'd traded one form of inaccessible for another.

Atlas is the answer to where to start. Index a reel and it helps you catalogue what's inside — a short, plain summary, the people, the places, the dates — then asks, with a gentleness we've tried hard to get right, for the things only you can add. You stay the archivist; Atlas just does the heavy lifting alongside you.

HOW WE WORK

A few promises, before you trust us with your archive.

No surprise pricing.

What it says on the tin is what you pay. If you joined at £2.99, you pay £2.99 forever — through any tier upgrade.

No training on your media.

We don't train our own AI on your media, and we never sell it or make it public. Indexing is carried out by Google's Gemini under business terms — see our AI addendum for the detail.

No surveillance.

No analytics on your viewing behaviour beyond what is strictly needed to keep the service working. No third-party trackers. No ads.

No lock-in.

You can download all your original files, any time, at full quality. If Atlas ever stops being what you want, you leave with everything you came in with.

Built quietly, in the UK.

Your files are hosted in the UK, on UK-owned infrastructure, and backed up to a second UK site. Run by a small team.

Built for the long haul.

We're slow on purpose. Atlas is meant to last as long as the archives it holds — which means decades, not quarters.
