— How it works —

Sixty seconds. One small question. A lifetime saved.

No journaling discipline. No catching up on forty years of life all at once. One guided prompt a day, in your own voice, kept somewhere private and warm.

01

Tap, and tell it.

Open the app from the home-screen widget. Today’s prompt is already there. Tap record. Answer in your own voice — audio, video, or a photograph. Sixty seconds is plenty, and that’s the whole assignment for the day.

— sample prompt #042 —“What’s a piece of advice your grandmother gave you that you still think about?”
02

We shape it.

Every entry is transcribed and grouped into chapters automatically — childhood, family, lessons learned, work, regrets, the small daily wisdoms. The album builds itself, one quiet evening at a time. You can search any word you ever said.

— chapters that build themselves —Childhood · Family · Love · Work · Lessons · Things I’d do differently · Things I’m proud of · What I want them to know.
03

Delivered on the day.

Address any entry to a specific person and schedule it. A birthday, a wedding, the day after. Your trusted contacts confirm the moment so nothing arrives by accident. The journal becomes a small, private postal service across time.

— sample scheduled letter —“For Lily, on her eighteenth.” Delivery: 4 June 2031 · sealed · quorum verified.
— Sample prompts —

The questions we ask, kept short on purpose.

Two-hundred starter prompts, written with therapists and memoirists. You get a new one each morning. You can skip. You can answer again. You can write your own.

What’s a piece of advice your grandmother gave you that you still think about?
What did you almost give up on, and didn’t?
Tell me about the morning your first child was born.
What’s something you wish your parents had told you when you were twenty?
Describe the kitchen in the house you grew up in.
What’s the closest you ever came to changing your life?
— Privacy & trust —

Built to outlast the company. Built to stay yours.

Encrypted at rest.

AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. Member-level keys. Optional client-side encryption for Legacy and Family tiers.

Never trains AI.

Your voice is never used to train a third-party model. Period. We publish this as a marketing promise because it’s the right one to make.

Trusted-contact protocol.

Any posthumous unlock requires two of three trusted contacts plus documentary evidence, manually reviewed in the first year. Nothing arrives by accident.

Continuity plan.

An escrowed open-format export and a published succession plan. If we ever shut down, your journal goes home with you in a format any tool can read.

One-tap export.

Every entry, every transcript, every chapter — exportable any time as a single archive. The journal is yours. We’re just the room you keep it in.

No ads. Ever.

Subscription-only. You are not the product. We make money when you keep the journal you wanted to keep, not by selling attention to anyone else.
