A legacy letter for the people you love

There are words worth leaving said, unhurried: what you feel for the people closest to you, what you've learned, what you hope for them. Write them today, in your own words and your own voice, and choose the date your family will receive them — a milestone birthday, a date that means something to you, or simply the day you decide. It's an act of love and foresight, not a rushed goodbye.

How it works

1. You write it today, unhurriedChoose the envelope, the wax seal, the paper and a commemorative stamp. You can record your voice — so they hear you say it, not just read it — a video, and a photo.
2. You choose when it opens: up to 25 years aheadYou set the exact date: a milestone birthday, a date that means something to your family, or whatever day you prefer. We don't promise to deliver it “when I'm gone” — no one can know that for certain — what we can promise is that it will arrive on the exact day you choose.
3. It arrives that day, at their hourBy email, with a private link, at their city's local time. They open it, and there you are, in your own words. That day they can download it, and that copy is theirs forever.

What it can hold

• Your recorded voice, saying what you truly want them to hear
• A video, if you'd rather they see you too
• Photos from this moment, so they remember it as it was
• A song, if there's one that speaks for you
• A commemorative stamp with the year you wrote it
• Its serial number: every letter is a single numbered piece

What to write

You don't have to say everything. These questions help you start:

• What I most want them to know about me, beyond what they already see.
• What I learned, and would spare them from learning the hard way.
• What I hope for each of them, without telling them how to live.
• The thanks I never got to finish saying.
• What I want them to remember on a hard day.

Fair questions

Does the letter arrive on its own, whenever I'm gone?

No — no system can know that for certain, and we don't want to promise something we can't keep. You choose an exact date — up to 25 years ahead — and the letter arrives that day, without fail. Many people choose a date that means something: a milestone birthday, an anniversary, or simply a number of years ahead.

Can I write more than one, one for each person?

Yes. Each letter stands on its own, with its own recipient, its own date and its own content.

Can I change the date later?

Yes, from “Correct my letter”, as long as it's still sealed.

How much does it cost?

From $5.99, once. No subscription: it's paid for the day it's written and never costs anything again.
