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

  • 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.
