How it works

Four steps from your voice to their ears

  1. A child laughing beside a phone showing a recording in progress

    Record it.

    Tap and talk in the free app. Play it back, and keep it private until you add it to a coin.

  2. The app asking when a recording should unlock

    Choose when.

    It can open right away, on a date, or at an age you pick.

  3. A hand holding a brass Vox Manet coin

    Give the coin.

    Hand it over, wrap it up, or tuck it away for later. The coin is the key.

  4. The listening page showing a list of recordings

    They listen.

    They scan the coin or type the address, and they hear you, in your voice.

don’t wait for the perfect time.

A note from the founder

Your recordings being safe and available for generations is our top priority. I started this company to ensure my daughter can always feel close and connected to me and her mom - and I want the same for families across the globe.

We treat your files as more important than money, and we're building the safeguards to back that up.

Questions, answered.

Your recordings

What happens to my recordings if Capture Coins isn’t around anymore?

Your recordings are always yours. You can download your files anytime, and you can sync them to Google Drive.

Will my recordings still be accessible decades from now?

That’s our goal. Even if we’re not around, we want the service to keep running. We’re actively working on an escrow fund and a digital trust so files can be accessed 100+ years from now. It isn’t guaranteed yet, but that’s the plan.

Why can't I do this on my own - without a coin?

It's surprisingly difficult to do in a reliable way. 

You can record video on your phone, but it lives on your personal device/cloud account - hard for others to access without your passwords. 

You can record on an old school tape recorder, but what happens if it gets lost of damaged. 

The real power in Capture Coins is that there's a physical key to your digital recordings. 

With that said: Best free method we found is to record and email each one to the person - maybe setup a secret account. However, you can't set unlock dates for each message - it's all or nothing. 

Can other people listen to my recordings, or can Capture Coins listen to my recordings?

No. Your recordings are encrypted. Only someone with the coin code and the answers you set can open them, and Capture Coins doesn’t listen to your recordings. See our Terms of Service.

The coin

Is the coin digital?

No. It’s a real keepsake coin. Scan its QR code or type its web address to open the messages recorded for that person.

Where are my messages stored?

In the cloud, encrypted. The coin stores nothing. It’s the key. [ENCRYPTION DETAILS TBD]

What if the coin is lost?

Your messages aren't lost. They stay in your account. [REPLACEMENT PROCESS / COST]

What if QR codes go away?

A QR code is just a picture of a web address. The address is printed on the coin too, so it doesn’t depend on any one app or reader.

How does my child open a message?

Your child scans the coin or types the web address, enters the 6-digit code, then their name, birthday, and the answer to a question you set.

Recording

I don’t know what to say.

Open Sparks in the app for ideas, like “What you are proud of today in 10 words.” Short is fine.

Does everything I record go to the coin?

No. Recordings stay private in the app until you add them to a coin.

Can I edit or change a message?

You can’t edit a message or change when it opens once it’s on a coin, but you can remove it.

What phone do I need?

Recording is iPhone only for now, and Android is coming. Listening works on any phone or computer, with nothing to install.

How often should I record?

As often as you like. One message a year is plenty.

Who it’s for

My kids are grown. Is it too late?

No. A message can open right away.

Is it only for parents?

No. Three coins means three people: grandkids, partners, parents, friends.

Can others add messages?

Not yet.

Order

Do I pay for the app or storage?

One payment. The app is free. [CONFIRM: no paid tiers]

When will it ship, and when am I charged?

Ships Nov 30–Dec 4. You’re charged when you order. Full refund any time before your order ships.

Can I send it as a gift?

Yes. [GIFT SETUP DETAILS TBD]

Who can I talk to?

A real person: support@capturecoins.com

You don’t have to wait for the perfect time.

Start recording for your family.
