Sealed until midnight, then it’s theirs.
For the stroke of twelve. Write it now, set it to open at midnight, and send the link whenever you like. Until then they see the sealed envelope and a countdown.
Open at midnight envelope: what goes inside
A letter
Something for the stroke of twelve: a birthday, an anniversary, the new year, the day it all changes.
Dear Theo, It’s midnight. You’re thirty. Go to sleep.
A postcard
A photo from this time last year.
One year ago tonight.
A film
The countdown, recorded earlier, arriving right on time.
0:20 · Three, two, one…
How it works
Fill the envelope with a letter, postcards and a film — any mix, up to ten pieces, and one price for the whole envelope by what's inside. Pay once, by card. Send the link now, or keep it sealed until the day: no app to install, it opens on any phone, and it's kept for good.
Open at midnight envelope questions
Whose midnight is it?
Yours: the time is set in your time zone. For someone abroad, set it to their midnight instead.
What do they see before midnight?
The sealed envelope, who it’s from, and a countdown. It opens on its own when the time comes.
How much does it cost?
$1.29 for letters and postcards, $5 with a film. One price for the whole envelope, up to ten pieces, paid once by card through Stripe. No subscription.
Do they need an app?
No. One link, opened in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer. They tap the seal and the envelope opens.
When should I send it?
Whenever you like. Send the link straight away, or send it now and set the day and time it opens — until then they’ll see the sealed envelope and a countdown.
Can I change it after I’ve paid?
Until they open it, yes. Sign in with the email you paid with and change what’s inside; the link stays the same. You can’t add anything that costs more than you paid, and once they’ve opened it, it stays as it is.
How long does it last?
For good. They can open it as many times as they like. A film is kept for a year after it’s first opened, and they can save their own copy.
