ANATOMY ILLUSTRATION · SEE PHOTOS BELOW01 / THE BUILD LOG
Not just a render.
It's on the wrist.
Meet the first physical Keepshake. A 3D-printed white enclosure, a black woven strap, and a live electronics stack make V1 wearable today. The fit, finish, and internals are still evolving.
PROTOTYPE
Want to inspect the enclosure?
The original top lid and two tub variants are available as STEP files in the public repository.
02 / THE HARDWARE
A tiny device.
A lot going on.
This interactive anatomy study explains the V1's core idea. The real enclosure and strap are shown above; the internal layout remains an illustration.

Capture by connection
The mic is off until the iPhone app subscribes. A dedicated hardware mute and clear recording indicator remain product goals.
BLE + USB-C
The band sends raw audio to the native iPhone gateway over Bluetooth Low Energy. The prototype enclosure exposes USB-C.
Printed shell + strap
V1 puts its electronics in a white printed housing on a black woven band. The STEP files include two tub attachment variants.
The exploded view is a visual explanation, not a CAD render or a verified component layout. See the real prototype photos and original STEP files above.

Your personal
memory context.
The capture path is taking shape now. The next step is turning conversations into the decisions, promises, reasons, and moments you actually want to remember.
FROM THE MOMENTTO WHAT MATTERS
09:18 AM / TEAM STANDUP
“If we hotfix the sync bug, we skip QA. I'd rather hold it.”
LEO · CONVERSATION EXCERPTDECISION↗ EVIDENCE LINKED
Ship the sync fix in 1.4.2, not as a hotfix.
Why: The hotfix would bypass QA.

Decisions with a “why”
Understand what was settled and the reasoning behind it.
Promises, surfaced
Turn commitments from conversation into things you can act on.
Ask with receipts
Search your own context and trace answers back to their source.
04 / THE iPHONE APP
The day,
finally in focus.
The native V1 app already connects to the band, saves incoming audio in local chunks, and retries uploads. The richer Today, Memory, and Ask experience shown here is the interface we're building toward.
