A sturdy box for the things you want to hand down
Some files matter more with every passing year: a family history, a finished manuscript, a child's first drawings. Keepsake Box stores them for the long haul, checks on them quietly and lets you name the people who will receive them when the time comes.
Everything Keepsake Box brings along
Sealed, read-only archives
Seal a collection and it can no longer be changed by accident. You can still add new boxes whenever you like.
Open on a chosen date
Schedule a box to open for someone on a birthday, graduation or any other day you pick.
Gentle format care
When a file type is at risk of becoming hard to open, the box suggests a safer format and keeps the original beside it.
Regular health checks
Stored files are checked on a schedule so silent damage is caught early and repaired from a spare copy.
Named trusted people
Choose who may open each box and in what circumstances, and change your mind whenever life changes.
Story notes
Add a letter or recording to every box explaining what is inside and why it mattered to you.
Four steps from first file to feeling settled
- 1
Choose what to keep
Gather the files that deserve a long life. A box works best with a clear theme, such as a person, a year or a project.
- 2
Seal the box
Add a title and a note, then seal it. Sealed boxes are stored with extra spare copies for safekeeping.
- 3
Name your people
Pick who can open the box, and whether it opens straight away, on a date or only when you ask.
- 4
Rest easy
Health checks run in the background. You get a short yearly note confirming each box is sound.

Questions about Keepsake Box
Is naming someone in Keepsake Box the same as a legal will?
No. It is a convenient way to share files with chosen people, but it does not replace legal advice or a legal document.
Can I add to a box after sealing it?
A sealed box stays as it was. You can unseal it, add files and seal it again, and the earlier state is kept for reference.
How long are boxes stored?
For as long as your account is active. If you ever close it, you will be given time to download everything first.
