Lightover Inc. was born from a deeply felt need: to help families better preserve, manage, and enjoy their digital media. Founded in 2023, the company emerged from decades of personal exploration, research, and professional experience in information systems and digital preservation. We recognized that as family photos, videos, and documents proliferate across countless platforms, valuable memories risk becoming fragmented, lost, or forgotten over time.
At the heart of Lightover Inc. is a commitment to personal data ownership. We leverage the SOLID data storage framework to ensure that our users retain control, privacy, and security over their digital legacies. Our platform seamlessly integrates advanced archiving tools and intelligent media organization, providing a secure environment where cherished content can be enriched with contextual stories—through text, audio, or video—imbuing each memory with depth and meaning.
Driving our innovation is Kalman, an accomplished leader and technologist with a background in system administration, large-scale technology project oversight, and early initiatives in digital memory preservation. His journey—from pioneering the concept behind the KAL hardware device in the late 2000s to leading enterprise-level systems transformations at top-tier institutions—infuses Lightover Inc. with a unique blend of visionary thinking and practical expertise.
At Lightover Inc., we envision a future where every individual owns their digital narratives and can pass their legacy on to future generations. Beyond storage and management, we strive to create a living, evolving tapestry of family heritage—one that fosters deeper connections across time, honors privacy, and secures the stories that matter most.
