A short film about Carry Echo. Four people write letters for the future: a mum to Mira, her week-old daughter; Emma at 17 to herself at 27; a grandma to Lily for her wedding day; and a dad to Ava for her 30th birthday. Each letter gets an emoji and the day it should arrive. The letters are sealed and wait while the years and seasons pass, and each one leaves on its day. On the day, a notification arrives for each of them and the four letters open.

Some words are worth the wait.

A text is gone by next week. A letter keeps what you never found the moment to say.

Write it tonight. It will find them when it matters.

Twenty-one. I wrote this

the week you learned to ride

a bike. You were terrible. 😄

I’m not making a speech.

I made this instead,

a long time ago.

By the time you read this

I’ll be the story someone

tells you.

From Grandpasent 6 years ago

Write it. Seal it. We’ll remember the day.

For someone you love, on a day that matters.

  1. Write

    Write exactly what you want them to hear, the way you’d say it. Add photos, your voice or a short video. It doesn’t need to be perfect. It needs to sound like you.

  2. Choose the day

    Tomorrow, their 18th birthday, your 25th anniversary, even sixty years from now. You can move the day whenever you like before it arrives.

  3. We deliver it

    Your letter stays private and sealed until that day. Then it arrives in their inbox and opens as the letter you made, photos and voice and all.

Write a letter, it’s free

Your words. Your voice. On the day they need you.

What arrives isn’t a notification. It’s you, for a few minutes, back in the room with them.

A short paper-cut film. A five-year-old girl paints sunflowers with her grandmother. Grandma writes her a letter, tucks the girl’s crayon drawing inside, and seals it for her eighteenth birthday. Thirteen years pass on one hill: the girl grows up, Grandma waves goodbye and becomes a star, and the letter waits. On her eighteenth birthday, it flies in through the window: “Keep painting, sunshine. The world needs your colours.”

Before you write

What is Carry Echo?

Carry Echo is a place to write a real letter today and have it delivered on a day you choose. That could be tomorrow, a birthday, or a morning eighteen years from now. You write it, we keep it, and it reaches the person you wrote it for on the day you picked.

How far ahead can I send a letter?

Up to sixty years. Choose the day, the month and the year, and the letter waits for exactly that morning.

Can I change the delivery day after I send it?

Yes. You can move the day any time before the letter is delivered. You will find it under Letters.

What if I’m not around when it’s delivered?

It is still delivered. Once a letter has its day, it doesn’t wait for you to sign in or press anything again. It waits for that morning, and then it goes to them.

Does the person I write to need an account?

No. The letter arrives by email and opens in their browser, photos and all. They only need an account if they want to write back.

Can I add photos and a video?

Yes. Photos and stickers are placed on the page by hand, the way you would tuck a photo into an envelope. You can also enclose a short video and recordings of your own voice.

Who can read my letter?

You and the person you send it to. Letters are never published, never indexed by search engines, and never shown to anyone else.

Does it cost anything?

Text letters are free, for good, and you can write as many as you like. Photos, voice notes and video come with a plan, from $5.99 a month, paid monthly or yearly. Tax is added at checkout where it applies.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

Your letters are still delivered. Cancelling only stops future payments. Every letter that already has its day stays sealed with us and reaches them on that day, even years from now. If you would rather we deleted everything instead, including your letters, photos, videos and voice recordings, email support@carryecho.com and we will erase it.

What languages does Carry Echo speak?

English, Hindi, Spanish, French, German and Chinese. The letter itself can be written in any language you like.

Who’s on your mind?

Put their name down. You don’t have to know what to say yet.
