Morning Hello
  1. Good morning, Linda. How are you doing today?

  2. Doing well, thanks.

  3. Thanks, Linda. Here's today's question about your life: What treats did you love as a child?

  4. Fruit Roll-Ups were my favorite. My mom only put them in our lunches once in a while, so I used to trade my cookies for one at school. In the summer we'd get Big League Chew at the gas station before baseball games, and Pop Rocks if there was any money left.

Two texts a day

Know they're okay without calling

At the time you pick, we text them a simple question, like "How are you doing today?" When they reply, we text you. If they don't, we let you know.

The text you get

Morning Hello: Linda has checked in for today. Nothing more to do.

Their story, one answer at a time

After they reply, we send one question about their life. They can text their answer back, or tap the link to type or record it, and we save every answer.

From a weekly email

What chores did you have?

Dishes after dinner and mowing the lawn on Saturdays. My sister and I took turns with the dishes and argued about whose night it was almost every night.

Each reply tells you they're okay, and each answer is saved for their circle.

What you see

Their circle can see the week's check-ins and every answer.

    Doing well, thanks.

    Their story

    What was dinnertime like in your house?

    We all ate together at 6. My mom cooked most nights and we couldn't leave the table until everyone was done.

    How's it going today?

    Good. Going to the store later.

    Their story

    What was your favorite room in the house you grew up in?

    No answer yet.

Their life story

Every answer they send becomes a leaf on their tree of life, on one of eight branches for the parts of their life. The next question follows what they said, so if they mention a job, we ask more about it.

Common questions

Do they need a smartphone?

No. Any phone that gets texts works, even a flip phone. It needs to open one link, to confirm the number.

What if they don't reply?

After one hour we text them again. After two hours we text you. After three hours we text the next person in their circle. If they reply, everything stops. You can change these times.

How do I bring it up with them?

Tell them what to expect: one short text a day, and one question about their life after they reply. One way to put it: "I'd love to hear more of your stories, and it would help me to know you're okay without calling every day." Then sign up, and we text them one link to tap, which confirms their number.

Who can read their answers?

Only the people in their circle, who you choose. We never sell their answers or share them for anyone else's marketing.
