Strata will read through years of your messages, notes, and photos — and turn them into an autobiography you can talk to. It's not ready yet. Leave your email and we'll let you know the moment it is.
An excavation has a method. So will Strata. Here's the process we're building toward — from the moment you'd connect an account to the moment you could ask your past a question.
Connect email, chat exports, photo libraries, or journal apps — one at a time, fully reversible. Nothing pulled automatically; every source an opt-in.
Messages, captions, and notes dated, deduplicated, and organized by lived chronology — the way memory actually works, not the way your inbox does.
Recurring people, places, beliefs you held and later dropped, the language you used to talk about work, love, or money — indexed and cross-referenced.
A written autobiography organized by year, plus a private chat that answers questions like "what was I worried about before the move?" — always sourced back to the original message.
This is the vision we're building toward — not a search bar for your inbox, but something designed to notice what changed in you, and when.
"What did I think about leaving my job?" will return an answer and the exact messages it's drawn from — never a guess dressed up as memory.
Tracking how your stated opinions on recurring topics — a person, a city, a career path — shifted year over year, and showing the turning points.
Every excavation should end in a readable, year-by-year narrative — exportable as a book — stitched together from your own words, not generic phrasing.
Seeing who shows up across the most years of your archive, when they entered and faded from your day-to-day, and what your conversations were actually about.
An optional weekly note: what you were doing and feeling on this exact week, one, five, and ten years back. Quiet by default — you choose when to look back.
Rebuilding the full timeline of a specific chapter — a relationship, a job search, a move — pulling every related fragment into one ordered account.
Most people generate a denser written record of their own life than any generation before them — and almost never look back at it in a way that means anything. We think the value isn't in storing that record. It's in organizing it the way memory actually works: by year, by person, by the things you changed your mind about.
We're designing the storage and access model first, before a single feature ships.
The plan: your archive is encrypted with a key only your account holds. No shared model training set would ever see your raw data.
Disconnecting a source should remove everything derived from it — not just the connection, the indexed sediment too.
Your autobiography and raw archive should export as plain files. No lock-in to a format only Strata can read.
