Replace recurring cloud bills with a secure, one‑time‑purchase server that sits quietly in your living room yet outperforms the Big‑Tech photo silos.
See the DeviceA palm‑sized aluminium box that stays cool, quiet and invisible—yet safeguards decades of memories on hardware you own outright.

It’s your personal photo and video vault: runs 24/7, indexes everything locally, and never phones home.
Cloud platforms lure you with free tiers, then lock your growing library behind ever‑rising fees. Sky Archive eliminates that treadmill entirely: pay once for hardware, own unlimited usage for life. No invoices, no “your storage is almost full” upsells, no multi‑currency credit‑card headaches.
Your media is captured in the most intimate moments of family life. On mainstream clouds every pixel is scanned, labelled and stored on data centres governed by laws outside your control. With Sky Archive, files never leave the encrypted SSD inside your own four walls—unless you explicitly share them.
We bundle an offline vision pipeline that recognises faces, places and objects directly on the box. Results feel instantaneous because queries happen on your gigabit network, not a distant region. No external APIs read your images; the neural models live and run entirely in‑house.
The mobile app monitors your camera roll; the moment you join home Wi‑Fi it streams new photos in the background, even while your phone is tucked away. Redundant snapshots on the SSD mean accidental deletions are reversible within seconds.
Create invitation links that embed an expiring, signed token—so grandparents can view an album without ever creating an account or remembering another password. Revoke a link any time, instantly severing access.
Start small with 512 GB and add off‑the‑shelf USB‑C drives as your archive grows. The system auto‑migrates original files and keeps the database intact; you’ll never face the nightmare of exporting and re‑importing to a bigger plan.
Set‑up is designed for non‑geeks: no command lines, no port‑forwarding puzzles.
A technician arrives with the unit, plugs in power and Ethernet, scans a QR code to pair it with your phone and is out of your door in under fifteen minutes.
The companion app walks each family member through enabling automatic camera‑roll backup, face‑recognition opt‑in, and optional passcode lock, all in plain language.
The server watches for new uploads using lightweight MQTT messages—so even a 32‑photo burst is ingested, checksum‑verified, and indexed before the kettle finishes boiling.
A TensorRT‑optimised model detects familiar faces and landmarks, then stores only numerical embeddings—not the faces themselves—ensuring searches remain fast yet privacy‑preserving.
An optional WireGuard tunnel lets you connect from abroad. Because the tunnel is peer‑to‑peer, bandwidth is limited only by your home uplink, not relay servers.
The entire lifetime TCO is the sticker price plus a few cents of electricity per day—thousands cheaper than renting 2 TB from the cloud for a decade.
We implement zero analytics scripts, zero call‐home binaries and publish reproducible builds so advanced users can verify every line of code.
Drag an album to “Share” and the system generates an end‑to‑end encrypted link. Recipients stream JPEGs and videos direct from your uplink, cutting CDN costs to zero.
Consumer clouds top out at 30 TB and charge a ransom for it. With SATA expansion docks you can attach 100 TB for the cost of three annual iCloud subscriptions.
Hourly ZFS snapshots plus optional S3‑compatible off‑site mirror mean even fire or theft won’t erase your heritage—yet you control the encryption keys.
“Free” clouds extract payment in surveillance, lock‑in and ever‑increasing fees.
Public filings confirm Big Tech trains face‑recognition and generative‑AI models on user uploads. Deleting a photo doesn’t un‑train the model—it’s irreversible.
Scene analysis tags stroller brands, holiday resorts, even ingredients in dinner shots to refine ad segments and maximise click‑through rates.
Your images traverse multiple jurisdictions, each with its own subpoenas and secret warrants, making true compliance practically impossible.
Initial 100 GB freebies morph into 2 TB premiums. Price hikes arrive silently; closing the account threatens to orphan years of memories.
Cloud T&Cs reserve weeks—sometimes months—before a “deleted” file ages out, during which time staff and AI pipelines retain full access.
A breach at a hyperscale data centre leaks billions of photos in one swoop; local storage shrinks the blast radius to a single home.

No—core functionality is 100% local. Internet is only required if you enable optional remote access or off‑site backup.
Yes. Our desktop importer downloads your archive, preserves album structure and retains face labels where available.
The NVMe drive has power‑loss protection and the board stores configuration on mirrored partitions. In the rare event of hardware failure, swap the drive into a new chassis and boot—your library reappears unchanged.
Remote sessions run through a WireGuard tunnel authenticated by 4096‑bit keys you generate during setup. We never hold a copy.
