Preserving memory. Defying forgetting.

We use artificial intelligence to ensure Holocaust testimonies, survivor stories, and historical records endure — not as static archives, but as living, accessible knowledge.

Never Again Begins With Never Forgetting


Our Mission

The Memorial Project is a nonprofit at the intersection of AI and Holocaust remembrance. We partner with institutions worldwide — archives, museums, education centers — to transform fragile testimonies into permanent, searchable, educational resources.

As the generation of survivors passes, the urgency of our work compounds. Every transcript, photograph, and recorded voice is a thread connecting the present to one of history's darkest chapters. We are here to hold those threads.

Archive & Digitize Animate & Humanize Educate & Distribute

The Righteous

Memorial · Righteous Among the Nations

Story Studio

Memorial · Zikaron BaSalon Collaboration

A joint initiative with Zikaron BaSalon — "Memory in the Living Room" — helping families and hosts gather and share a survivor's story, with care. A guided collection wizard turns photographs, letters, and recordings into an evening's presentation, while the testimony navigator breaks each recording into chapters guests can move through themselves.

Soviet Anti-Zionism

Deep Dive · Primary Sources

The weaponization of the word "Zionist" — a 45-minute lesson through images, video, and primary sources. Tracing how Soviet propaganda systematically distorted language to delegitimize Jewish self-determination, with echoes still felt today.

Jewish Settlements Across History

Short · Historical Atlas

Empires, Colonies & Religion

Short · Empires & Colonialism

2,200 years of colonialism on a single map. Track 31 territories ruled by 17 imperial powers — Rome, the Caliphate, Ottoman, Spain, Britain, France, Russia, USA, and more. See how religion was imposed, replaced, or revived across every century of conquest.


Why This Matters

We are living through a turning point. The last generation of Holocaust survivors and World War II veterans is passing. Within a decade, there will be no living witnesses left to share their stories firsthand. At the same time, misinformation and historical denial are on the rise.

Technology gives us the means to fight back.

  • Reconstruct fragmented family histories from scattered records across dozens of countries
  • Create interactive, immersive experiences that make history personal and tangible
  • Provide educators with modern tools to teach the next generation effectively
  • Build permanent digital archives that will outlast physical documents

Technology & Infrastructure

Our technical foundation combines large language models, multimodal AI, graph databases, and cloud archival infrastructure to ensure these records remain accessible — and meaningful — indefinitely.
