Memoria — a Google Calendar alternative
A Google Calendar alternative shaped for households: Memoria adds per-kid and per-vehicle views, AI capture from WhatsApp and photos, renewal reminders and an encrypted vault.
Google Calendar is a free, universal shared calendar — hard to beat as a generic scheduling primitive, and it syncs with everything. But it's a blank canvas: it doesn't know a PTA meeting from a fee due-date from a PUC renewal, and it can't read a forwarded circular or a photographed warranty card. If you want a Google Calendar alternative built around the shape of a household, Memoria adds per-kid and per-domain views, AI capture from WhatsApp, email and photos, renewal reminders for vehicles, appliances and insurance, and an encrypted document vault — family-shared, multilingual, and private by architecture. Many households keep Google Calendar for work and let Memoria run the home.

Switching from Google Calendar to Memoria.
There is no two-way sync — but there is no lock-in either. One-time, one-way, no data left behind.
- Forward your last month. Send your most recent Google Calendarentries — school circulars, fee notes, warranty cards, insurance emails — to your Memoria number or email alias. Captures parse and back-fill in a day.
- Pin the Memoria reminder feed. Once your items are in, the calendar and reminder feed become the daily surface. Keep Google Calendar open in parallel for the first 30 days to verify nothing slipped.
- Cancel when you are sure. After a month of parallel use, most households unsubscribe from Google Calendar. Memoria keeps your full history, exports everything as an archive, and never holds your data hostage.
