Our Archival
"Black Box"
Processing family history requires unprecedented security. Every artifact handled by Theirloom is sequestered in a secure, encrypted sandbox. We do not use your private stories to train public models.
What We Accept
We process virtually anything from your family archive. No special scanning equipment needed — phone photos work perfectly.
