Cultural Archive App

Two Sides of One Story

The Cultural Archive App is a two-sided marketplace for Indian culture. Grandparents and storytellers record and upload folk tales, bhajans, and family stories. Parents browse an interactive map of India, select a region, and cast authentic folk tales directly to their child's BoxTales device. Free with every hardware purchase.
