Echo

Message escrow

Keep your tenderness safe, and let it reach the ones you cherish, slowly, in time.

A story

Some things are hard to say out loud.

It was not that he did not want to. Every time the words came up, they felt too heavy, too sudden. Later, he thought. But no one knows which comes first, tomorrow or the accident. Where the insurance papers were, the passwords, the sorry he never managed to say: all of it stayed inside, and no one knew.

Another story

Knowing time was short, she chose to say it slowly.

She split what she wanted to say into several letters. One for her husband, two days after. One for her child's eighteenth birthday. One for ten years on. After she was gone, each letter arrived at the right time. As if she were still here, dropping by now and then.

The last letter

Time moves on, and so must the living.

For the one who left, time stopped. That deserves a proper goodbye. Write one last letter, and let it be the farewell.

Mark a letter as the last one. Once it has been delivered, nothing more will be sent.

The key and the lock

Hand over the key today.
The tenderness arrives later.

Anything you mark as private is locked inside your own browser. The server keeps only the locked letter: no text, no passphrase. So you can share the passphrase with your family today. They cannot open it early, because the letter only arrives when the day comes.

Your schedule

What to say? To whom?
Yours to decide.

A letter to your partner two days after. Family matters on day thirty. A birthday wish to your child on a certain date. One letter can go to several people, and every kind of email can be sent to yourself first.

2 days after→To Rain
30 days after→To brother, sister

Terms

Read to the end to agree.

1. Echo sends your pre-written messages after you stop responding. It is not a will and has no legal effect. 2. Sixty consecutive days without clicking a confirmation link (up to seventy with a witness) is treated as your passing. Mistakes can happen; there is a two-day grace period to cancel before sending. 3. We do not guarantee delivery, timing, or that recipients can open a message. Email may be filtered, bounced, or marked as spam. 4. Encrypted messages are locked with a passphrase you choose. It is never stored on the server; if lost, the message is gone. Its strength is up to you. 5. Passing on credentials for third-party services may breach their terms. That responsibility is yours. 6. This service may be suspended or ended. We will try to give notice, but cannot promise it. 7. We keep only what is needed to run: your email, your witness's email, encrypted messages and timestamps. Nothing else.
