Tithonos is an international platform for the long-term preservation of human memories. It enables individuals, families, businesses, and institutions to store photos, videos, audio files, texts, and documents not only digitally, but also to have them physically engraved in Switzerland on materials designed for exceptional longevity.
To provide an answer to the question: “Why do we come into this life?” Tithonos was created in response to a deeply human problem: our memories increasingly depend on short-lived technologies. Its aim is to protect people’s stories, voices, love, achievements, and identities from being forgotten, from technological loss, and from the passage of time.
The customer selects a capsule and a storage capacity, receives a Key-Card or Key-Coin, activates the account through the app, and uploads the content they wish to preserve. During a curation period, content can be added or changed. It is then finalized, encoded, and physically engraved for long-term preservation in Switzerland.
The Tithonos Coin is the physical access key and the symbol of ownership of the capsule. It is linked to the owner’s identity, activates the capsule, and serves as physical proof of belonging to the Tithonos system.
Tithonos can store different types of digital content, including photos, videos, audio files, documents, personal messages, texts, family memories, professional records, and any other form of data that holds value for the owner.
This depends on the selected capacity and the file size of the photos. As a guide, 5 MB can hold around 5 very high-quality photos or 15 to 20 compressed photos. With Tithonos, the customer is not simply buying storage space, but deliberately choosing the most important memories to preserve with meaning and with a view to the distant future.
Yes. Videos are among the most powerful forms of memory because they preserve movement, voice, atmosphere, and the genuine emotions of a moment. The selected capacity determines the length and quality of the video that can be stored.
Yes. Documents can be stored as part of the capsule, especially when they have personal, family, professional, legal, artistic, or historical value. They are encoded as data and become part of the preserved memory.
Yes. The human voice is one of the most valuable elements of memory. A voice message from a parent, grandparent, child, or loved one can have far greater emotional value than any physical object.
