We deliver
letters.

Letterbox is a place to write private letters online — love letters, unsent letters, letters to your kids, “Open When…” sealed envelopes, and letters delivered only after you’re gone.

Love letters. Apologies. Goodbyes. The letters a text can't carry.

Free forever. No credit card. Your words, not ours.

Your own letter address

letterbox.life/you

Not your phone. Not your email. A quiet address for letters — share it anywhere, and anyone can write you something real.

Put it in your bio. Send it to your kids. Tell your parents. The letters come to you.

DROP A LETTERLETTERBOX OFYOURS

You know who it's for.

“I never told my dad what he meant to me. Now I can't.”

“I wrote my daughter a letter for her wedding day. She's only three.”

“There's an apology I owe someone. I'm not brave enough to say it out loud.”

“I want them to know how I felt. Even after I'm gone.”

You've typed it a hundred times. In Notes. In drafts. Then deleted it.

Letterbox gives those words a place to live — and a person to find them.

How it works

Three steps. That's all.

01

Write your heart out.

Take your time. Add photos. There's no send button — just you and your words. It saves as you go.

02

Seal it with a secret.

"What did we name the cat?" "Where did we first meet?" A question only they would know. That's their key.

03

Let it find them.

Share the link when you're ready. Or don't — we can send a gentle nudge. "Someone left you a letter."

A letterbox for every person

One for your mom. One for your kid. One for the day you're gone.

Someone left you a letter.

If you got a link or an email that says “someone left you a letter” — it means someone sat down and wrote something just for you. Open it. Answer the question. Read their words.

Open Your Letter

For the words that matter most

Some things can't be said in a text.

"Open when you miss me."

Sealed envelopes with labels. They choose when to open — when they're sad, when they need courage, when they graduate, when they're homesick.

"Read this after I'm gone."

Write now. Designate trusted contacts. If something happens to you, your letters arrive. The words you wanted to leave behind — delivered.

"I need to say this, but I can't say it's me."

Write anonymously. Set a timer to reveal your name — or keep it hidden forever. Some words are easier without a face.

"If I don't check in, send my letters."

A quiet promise. Check in weekly or monthly. If we stop hearing from you, your trusted contacts are notified. Your letters find their way.

Letters people wish they'd written sooner.

To Mom

"Thank you for everything you gave up so I could have more. I see it now."

To my future kid

"I'm writing this the night before you're born. I don't know you yet, but I already love you."

To an old friend

"I'm sorry I disappeared. It wasn't you. I hope you know that."

To someone who'll never read this

"I think about you more than I should. I hope you're okay."

One-time. Forever.

Your words aren't rented.

Pay once. No subscriptions. Your letters are kept safe for as long as they need to wait.

Free

One person. One letter. That's enough to start.

Questions

What if they never check?+
That's okay. The letter waits. Forever, if it has to. You can also send a gentle nudge — a simple email that says "someone left you a letter." No spoilers. Just enough to bring them.
How does the secret question work?+
You write a question only they would know. "What did we name the stray cat?" "What song was playing that night?" They answer it to unlock your letter. It's like a whisper only two people understand.
Does the person I'm writing to need an account?+
No. They just open the link and answer your secret question. No signup, no app, no friction. Just your words.
What if I'm not ready to share it yet?+
Then don't. There's no send button. Your letter sits in your letterbox, sealed, until you decide it's time. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe in ten years. Maybe never. It's yours.
How does "After I'm Gone" work?+
You check in periodically — weekly or monthly. If we don't hear from you, your trusted contacts are notified. They confirm, and your letters are delivered. The words you couldn't say in time still arrive.
Can I write without them knowing who I am?+
Yes. You can hide your identity completely. Set a timer for when your name is revealed — a week, a year, or never. Some things are easier to say when no one knows it's you.

You already know who it's for.

A face just came to mind. A name. Something you've been meaning to say. Start with that.
