A gift that arrives every month.

The whole process, step by step

For families

Everyone's news, in one place.

When a family lives in four cities, most of what happens never reaches the person who'd most like to hear it. This collects it: the first day of school, the new job, the trip, the dog.

Grandkids by text. An aunt by email. A cousin from the web.

Making one for each grandparent? Each gets their own magazine, from one account.

For children

A record of growing up.

Grandparents, godparents and family friends send what they see. The child gets a magazine of their own every month, to keep long after the photos on a phone are forgotten.

  • The adults do all of it. Children don't have accounts and never sign in.
  • A parent or guardian decides who sends, and can have any photo of their child taken out. Privacy and safety

For older adults

Connection shouldn't require Wi-Fi.

A photograph you have to unlock a phone to find is one nobody looks at twice. What the grandkids are up to, news from back home, and what they follow, in twenty-four pages that stay on the table.

No screen needed. Large photos, a name under every face.

It keeps arriving.

A photo book is finished when it prints. This keeps going: their people's news, their team's season, their hometown, and a short list of things to go and do, with what they did in the next issue.

$29 a month, or $315 a year. Both renew until you cancel, and you can cancel any time. There isn't a fixed-length gift yet.
