How It Works

1

Write your message

Go to "Leave a Message" and write what you want to say. You can include text, photos, videos, or documents. Everything is encrypted in your browser — we never see the content.

2

Choose a passphrase

Pick a memorable passphrase and give it to your recipient in person. This is the key they'll need to open your message. Don't write it down where others can find it.

3

Add your recipient

Enter the email address of the person who should receive your message. They'll get a consent email asking if they agree to receive a future message from you. They won't know the content.

4

Save your edit code

The system generates a cryptographic edit code. Save it securely — it's the only way to edit or delete your message later. If you lose it, no one can recover it.

5

The safety system watches

Once set up, the system periodically checks if you're still active — through the platform, your social profiles, and email confirmations. All timing is configurable by you.

6

When the time comes

If the system detects prolonged inactivity, it follows a careful multi-step verification process. Your recipient is asked to confirm your status. You receive a final alert with the option to cancel. Only after all checks pass is the message delivered.

7

Your recipient opens it

They enter the passphrase you gave them, receive a verification email, and click the link. The message is decrypted in their browser. No one else can read it.
