Benefits of an Audivi memory bank
Memory support
Memory banks offer support for individuals experiencing memory loss – just as hearing aids and eye glasses do for hearing & vision loss.
Playing memory banks offer a fun diversion that can provide caregivers respite.
Memory banks can offset the disorientation, confusion, anxiety & depression that is often associated with memory loss by preserving a permanent touchstone to the past.
Legacy preservation
Children are more resilient and better able to moderate the effects of stress in their own lives when they know more about their family’s history.
The physiological effect of hearing a voice of someone you love is similar to what you’d experience if you actually touched or hugged them.
Your voice & memories may be among the most cherished items you pass down to your kids and grandkids.

What our clients are saying:
I just finished listening to the story of my life with Audivi. When I came to the end, I actually felt as though I was living NOW in THAT time. SOOOO many memories of my life. I treasure the memories and hope that my GREAT GREAT GREAT grandchildren will enjoy listening to this someday. I keep going back to it and cannot tell you how much this has meant to me. Every time I listen to it I feel young again.
Bonnie
The editing is superb - extraneous information has been omitted, but the details and stories of interest are kept. The final result is stunning. How often does one hear one’s own voice? It’s a fabulous experience.
Lucy I played the memories for my mother last week. It was wonderful because she was smiling the whole time and she would finish her own sentences, delighted at hearing the story. It felt as if she were chiming into the lyrics of a favorite song. A couple of times she said “Is that my voice?!!” She was chuckling through the whole thing, totally engaged. I’m sorry you couldn’t see it — it would have been satisfying for you!
Paul The Audivi memory bank about my mother has already become a family treasure. We learned more details about her life and now we have those stories recorded in her own voice. The site is presented beautifully and is easy to navigate. What a gift to us all!
Tracy Words can’t express how thrilled I am with the Audivi memory bank for my mom. You have done such a professional job. It is a treasure to have this information together – the photos, my mom’s voice and the history. I can’t wait to share this with the rest of my family.
Lisa I’m fortunate to experience my mother-in-law in person, but hearing and seeing her through Audivi is an immersion into aspects of her life that remained hidden. What a joyful discovery!
Danny This is such a beautiful way to pay tribute to family history. I love hearing Grace’s voice and her expressions and the details as only she can express them. So much fun seeing photos of the past and learning more about Jugger’s family too. This piece is so special and I think you are all to be commended for capturing this for all of us to see, enjoy and save.
Vera Nana's memories are so beautiful! She has such joy in her voice. I loved it but would love to hear more. It's so important to get this all down and so incredibly cool to have a better idea of where we all come from.
Anna I want to offer my deep appreciation for Audivi's work with Herb. I think of it often, and it, in turn, brings me to think of Herb and Liz at those times. There is so much there that gestures towards my own growing up. I have clear memories of Hutchinson Court, of the pigeon coop atop the next garage, of grandpa Mitch walking me to a pet store and hobby store.
Richard We recently captured the memories for some residents in our community and then played them at a 'Getting to Know You" activity. It was a big success. The residents really enjoyed learning about each other and were all smiles. We will certainly be doing it again.
Abbi, Life Enrichment Director, Bridges by EPOCH at WestfordOur Story
There were 3 things that inspired me to create Audivi:
- First of all, my mother has loads of great stories from across her lifetime. We hear many of them again and again – and can cite some of them verbatim – but I know that won’t always be the case. As her memory fades, so will the stories. I worry that someday they will be gone – for her and for us.
- In addition, I saw my wedding video and was struck by my father’s voice. I realized it was the only place that we had a recording of him speaking. Even though we could hardly see him in the film, it didn’t matter. Hearing his voice transported me back to him.
- Finally, I wondered how best to take care of my mother’s memorabilia: a letter from her father when she was young, a 1947 ticket for passage to Europe, old portraits of her great-great grandparents, and so much more. These items, tucked away in my mother’s desk drawer, are likely to be lost over time and are certainly under-appreciated even now.
These would have been the sole drivers for the business until something unexpected happened: I played the memory profile for my mother (who has short-term memory loss) and, much to my surprise, experiencing the memories gave her great joy. It connected her to her past & to herself, and enabled her to revisit and re-experience her favorite memories again and again. Legacy preservation may be considered a luxury item in today’s society, but memory preservation should be standard of care for individuals losing their memory. Audivi is striving to make this a reality.
Please join Audivi in capturing the memories, photos, & voice of your loved ones. For them. For you. For their caregivers. For the future. The memories are too valuable to lose!
