Software that preserves
what matters most

Ziptar Labs builds tools that help families recover, organize, and relive their most important memories — before they're lost forever.

Built for real people,
not just tech people

We make complex AI technology disappear into experiences that feel simple and personal.

  • AI-powered scene detection and descriptions — find any moment in seconds
  • Automatic transcription of conversations and audio

  • Searchable gallery you can share with the whole family
  • Free preview — you only pay if you love it
  • White-label platform available for VHS digitization shops

Small team,
big ambitions

We move fast, stay lean, and obsess over the details that make products feel human.

🎯

Purpose-driven

Every product we build solves a real problem for real people — not just a technical novelty.

🤝

Free until you love it

We believe in earning trust before asking for money. Preview first, pay later.

AI that disappears

The best AI is invisible. Our tech works in the background so you experience the result, not the complexity.

🔒

Privacy by default

Your memories are yours. We never share, sell, or train models on your personal content.
