I’m not building a product.
I’m building the cheapest possible consciousness backup prototype
with what I can afford:
a piece of metal, a few thousand words, and an AI.
I don’t own a lab.
I don’t have investors.
I don’t have a team.What I do have is one unbearable thought:“If I disappear one day, everything that makes me ‘me’
will simply be erased.”MeSave LAB is a one-person, self-funded attempt to answer a brutal question:How much of a person can we preserve
with almost no money,
using today’s tools?Not as a fantasy.
Not as religion.
Just as data, structured in a way that future AI systems might use
to reconstruct a person’s essence more faithfully.
Clouds are not ours.
Accounts get banned.
Hard drives die.
Subscription bills get missed.If we want any chance for a person to be reconstructed in the far future,
we can’t rely only on servers owned by corporations.Metal is stupid.
Metal is slow.
Metal is also honest:It doesn’t care about logins.It doesn’t need electricity.It can survive fire, water, and bankruptcy.AI is the other half.In the coming decades, AI systems will get better and better at modeling
how a specific person thinks, speaks, remembers, reacts.I don’t claim this will “bring anyone back from the dead”.
But I do believe:If we leave nothing structured behind,
there is zero chance for reconstruction.
If we leave something, there is at least a non-zero chance.
I can’t build a brain scanner.
I can’t freeze a body.But I can start smaller:Design a piece of metal that deserves to outlive us.The v0.1 prototype is a credit-card-sized stainless steel plate with:A unique ID (for future indexing).A simple, brutal sentence about memory and time.Space reserved for high-density micro-etching
(future versions will store thousands of words in microscopic text).It’s not a gadget.
It’s a seed — a physical anchor for:the story of a person,the metadata of a life,and a pointer for future AI systems to follow.Right now I’m producing the first 10 prototype cards
on my own savings, through a small factory run in China.These are not mass-market items.
They are founder artifacts from a very early, very fragile experiment.
No.I’m not a doctor.
I’m not a priest.
I’m not promising any kind of “eternal life”.What I’m doing is much smaller and much more honest:Preserving structure.The structure of a life story.
The structure of values and choices.
The structure of a mind, as much as text and metal can hold.One day, future AI systems may be able to reconstruct
a convincing model of a person from surviving data.I can’t guarantee that.
I can only make sure there is something worth feeding into that future.This is not a promise of coming back.
It is a refusal to vanish without a trace.
People who lie awake at night wondering
whether anything of them will remain.People who have lost someone and hate the idea
that their stories will dissolve into unsearchable dust.People who believe AI will change what “death” means,
but also know that no data = no chance.People who like cold metal, quiet design,
and brutally honest projects.If you think this is all crazy, that’s fine.
I’m not trying to convince everyone.I’m trying to find the few who understand exactly
what this is trying to do.
Right now, MeSave LAB is just me, my savings,
and a small batch of prototype metal cards.If you want to help this experiment survive long enough
to reach v1.0, you can:Join the Prototype List

for one of the first limited cards.Tip the Project
Small donations help pay for manufacturing, hosting,
and the next round of tests.In return you get:Transparent updates.Photos and data from every production run.Early access to anything that comes next.This is not a startup pitch.
It’s a long-shot experiment by someone
who refuses to go quietly.
