videomuistia

Videomuistia is a Finnish digital platform that stores and organizes personal video clips, allowing users to create shared family libraries. The service was launched in 2018 by the media company Videotime to address the growing need for secure, cloud‑based storage for high‑resolution video files. A key feature of Videomuistia is its automatic tagging system, which uses facial recognition to identify individuals in footage and suggests relevant categories for easier searching. Calibrated to respect privacy, the platform requires users to approve all face‑detection settings and offers an on‑device processing option for sensitive content.

The application is available on iOS, Android, and through a web interface. Users can invite up to 50 family members to collaborate on shared albums, and the platform integrates with popular social media for controlled sharing. Videomuistia also provides a time‑stamped playback feature that highlights voices and background sounds to help users locate specific moments quickly.

Since its launch, Videomuistia has attracted over 200,000 active users across Finland and Sweden, with a subscription model that includes a free tier for up to 20 GB of video storage. The company has received several awards for its privacy‑focused design, including the 2021 Finnish Digital Design Prize. Although primarily used for personal memories, the platform’s robust API is now being explored by smaller media companies for archival purposes.
