A letter to your wife, for afterwards
After years of life together, there are always things left unsaid — thank-yous never quite formulated, memories only she would understand, words to help her carry on. This letter is your last conversation.
What to put in the letter
Your gratitude. For the big things and the small ones: the hard years crossed together, the daily gestures we forget to notice.
Your memories, just the two of you. The beginnings, the trips, the laughter, the ordeals. Write them as you would still tell them.
What you wish for her next. Give her permission to be happy without you — it is often what a widow most needs to hear, and least gets to hear.
The practical, without heaviness. Where the important documents are, who to call, what you had planned. A few factual lines amid the emotion will spare her much stress.
How to make sure she receives it
- You log in every 30 days to confirm you are there.
- Reminders are sent at days 30, 37, and 44. At day 51, a trusted contact, if you have one, is asked to confirm or deny your death. A confirmation starts a 24-hour window in which you can still log in to cancel release; if there is no trusted contact, release can proceed at day 51.
- She receives a single-use access code, sent separately, to open the letter at her own pace.
Encrypted message, single recipient, one-time code: your letter will pass through no one else's hands.
Frequently asked questions
Should I tell my wife the letter exists?
Your choice. Many prefer to keep the surprise — delivery is discreet either way.
Can I include practical instructions in the letter?
Yes: the content is rich text, so you can add lists and concrete details alongside the personal words.
Does the subscription continue after my death?
No: it is cancelled automatically as soon as you are presumed deceased. Your loved ones will never pay anything.
