Say the one thing they’ll remember in 20 years
One photo. One voice. Kept safe in your private family vault.
The moments we never meant to forget
Photos pile up.
Videos overwhelm.
Journals collect dust.
But the real moments?
The laugh.
The story.
The love you meant to say but didn’t?
It fades faster than you think.

That’s why
we built OnlyOnce
To guard the moments you never want to lose.


Built for the moments you'd forget. Until they’re gone.
This is your vault. A quiet space where voices, photos, and real memories live together, forever.
Each one below was saved with OnlyOnce.
One photo, one voice, one honest reflection.

Frequently asked questions
The answers you need to get started with your family vault.
Is this private? Who can see my moments?
Private by default. No feeds, no followers, no algorithms. You choose who sees what.
Why does it cost $89/year?
Because this isn’t ad-supported content. It’s a private, permanent space, not a social feed. About $7/month to keep what matters.
Do I need to download an app?
No. OnlyOnce works right in your browser (iOS, Android, desktop). Add it to your home screen for one-tap recording.
What if I forget to record?
You’ll get a gentle weekly reminder (time customized). One minute, once a week. That’s all it takes.
Can loved ones add their voices too?
Yes. Send them a link. They’ll see your photo, hear your words, and can leave their own reply—no login required.
What happens if I cancel my subscription or if OnlyOnce ever goes away?
You can export your memories anytime. They’re always yours.
