Imagine this

The moments you'll actually preserve

Real scenarios from real family life. This is what a Nest is for.

The Grandma Test

Picture this: Grandma opens the Nest with her morning coffee. New photos from the grandkids, a voice memo from her daughter, a recipe someone finally wrote down. No passwords to remember. No confusing feeds. Just her family.

The Recipes That Almost Disappeared

Every family has recipes that live in someone's head. Handwriting that's fading. Stories only told at Thanksgiving. The Nest is where those things stop being fragile and start being permanent.

Private Instagram — Minus Everything Bad

All the sharing. None of the ads, algorithms, or strangers. Just the cousins in Ohio, the aunt in Florida, the teens who actually check it, and Grandpa who just learned how to tap.

Why Our Family Nest

More than a photo dump. A family heirloom.

Right now, your family's moments are scattered across Instagram, iCloud, WhatsApp, and a dozen other apps. Half your relatives never see any of it. The other half scrolls right past it between ads and strangers' content.

Our Family Nest brings it all together. It's private, it's permanent, and everyone in the family can jump in. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teens, and yes, even the little ones.

And one day, you hand it over. It becomes something better than stuff. The story of where they came from.
