More than a photograph

Preserve what the stone can no longer say clearly.

Weather fades lettering. Time scatters records. Family stories become fragments. Taphos brings the pieces back together in one carefully organized memorial archive.

Capture with contextPhotograph the memorial and retain the cemetery, address, visit date, and photographer.

Preserve the inscriptionKeep the original photograph, an enhanced image, AI draft, and final human-verified transcription.

Connect the familyRecord spouses, parents, children, siblings, and genealogical branches around the memorial.

A complete memorial record

From cemetery visit to family archive.

Taphos follows a clear path: capture the stone, recover the inscription, confirm the details, and place the person within a living family record.

Capture

Simple guidance helps frame the entire memorial, keep text sharp, and include the surrounding context needed for a useful record.

Verify

AI creates a transcription draft, but the final inscription remains clearly marked until a person reviews and verifies it.

Connect

Relationships, dates, notes, photographs, and genealogy branches transform a solitary record into connected history.

Human VerifiedAI assists with difficult lettering. You retain the final word.

AI that serves the record

Read weathered inscriptions with greater confidence.

Traditional OCR can stumble over worn granite, shadows, decorative lettering, and fragmented dates. Taphos can send a memorial photograph to your selected AI provider and return an unverified draft for careful review.

Original and enhanced photographs remain together

AI output is clearly identified as a draft

Human verification completes the record

Your own provider and API key remain optional

History has a place

Return to the exact memorial.

Memorial pins preserve where each person rests. Numbered clusters make family plots and nearby records easier to understand, while labels keep the cemetery landscape legible rather than turning it into a pin-shaped thunderstorm.

Search by person, cemetery, date, inscription, relationship, or note to move from a physical location to the record you need.
