A story about one person, opened one envelope a day.
For seven days they open an envelope and choose what happens next. You hide one object in the story and guess their choices.
Pip is ninety and has been expecting you, Maya. “Your friend left three things with me. You may take one.”
Which one do you take?
How it worksFive minutes for you, a week for them.
Tell us about them
Pick from short lists: what they love, a place, a season, a pet. Type their first name. That is all we ask about them.
Hide something, and guess
Choose one object to hide in the story, and guess the six choices they will make.
We send them the link
On the day you pick, we email it to them, signed with your first name (or kept secret until the last envelope, if you like), and you get a copy. Or we send it to you to pass on yourself. It opens in any browser, with no account and nothing to install.
One envelope each evening
They break a seal, read a short chapter, and choose what happens next. If they miss a night, the envelope waits.
The last envelope
On day seven they find what you hid, see how many of their choices you guessed, and can pick a short reply for you.
The envelopesEach kind of story comes in its own envelope.
The paper, the lining, the wax and the sticker change with the story. Tap one to open it.

PriceNine dollars, once.
Paid once, for one person's week. No subscription.
Each story is drafted with AI, and a person reads it before it goes out. Their first name is added afterwards and is never sent to the AI.
For adults to give to adults.
QuestionsBefore you start.
Do they need an account or an app?
No. They open a private link in any browser. Each evening the next envelope is there.
When do the envelopes open?
The first one opens on the day you choose. Each next one opens the following evening at the hour you pick, in their time zone. The last one opens on the day you choose for the end.
What if they miss a day?
Nothing is lost. The envelope waits, and the next one opens the evening after they open it.
Who writes the story?
It is drafted with AI from the choices you make on our lists, then a person reads it before it goes out. Apart from first names, you only pick from lists, and names are never sent to the AI.
What happens to their name?
We use it only to fill it into the finished story. It is never sent to the AI that drafts the story.
Who can see their choices?
You, in a nightly email. Anyone who has the link can open the envelopes, so it should reach only them.
