Our Purpose

Every life leaves behind a story.

Skypod was created to make sure those stories are never lost.

Skypod started with one quiet realization: most of what makes a life meaningful disappears with the person who lived it. We're building the place where that stops being true.

The Inspiration

The inspiration

When Skypod founder Richard Jardine was a child, he lost his biological father. Years passed, then decades — yet one question never went away: what would my father have wanted me to know?

There were no letters. No recordings. No videos. No stories told in his father's own voice. That absence eventually sparked an idea: what if no child, grandchild, spouse, or loved one ever had to wonder what someone wanted to say to them?

2020

COVID changes everything.

The realization

This can't keep happening.

Legacy Pods

A better way to preserve what matters most.

Skypod

Built to protect memories for generations.

Today

Millions of memories preserved.

"I built Skypod so no one has to say 'I wish I had asked' or 'I wish I had recorded that.' We can't stop time, but we can save what matters."

The problem with lost memories

The moments we don't capture today are the stories tomorrow's generations may never get to know.

Unlabeled photos

Over time, photos lose their context. Places, people, and stories are forgotten.

Voices not recorded

Voices can't be saved once they're gone. The laughter, wisdom, and little sayings disappear forever.

Stories left untold

Stories don't get passed down unless someone takes the time to tell them.

It's not that we don't care.
"It's that we don't have a place built for this kind of caring."
