The group card, rebuilt around anticipation
One Jar. Everyone's Words.
For the farewell, the milestone birthday, the wedding, the retirement. Everyone drops in a signed note — no accounts, no app, no chasing anyone. You seal it, and they unwrap one voice at a time, each slip a small surprise of who it's from.

How It Works
Open a jar
Pick the moment — a farewell, a birthday, a wedding, a retirement — and the jar takes its shape. Drop the first note in yourself.
Share the invite
One link goes to the group chat, the team channel, the family thread. Everyone writes a note and signs it. No accounts, no app, no chasing people for $5.
Seal it & hand it over
When the last voice is in, you seal the jar and send them their link. They unwrap one note at a time — each one signed, each one a small surprise of who it’s from.
A Card Is Read Once. A Jar Keeps Arriving.
Every group gift dies the same death: passed around, skimmed in ninety seconds, filed in a drawer. A Group Jar drips instead — one signed note a day, or one a week, landing long after the leaving drinks are cleared away. The goodbye lasts a month. The birthday lasts forty days. And every slip opens with the same small thrill: who's this one from?
Made for the From-All-of-Us Moments
Anywhere a card would get passed around, a jar does it better:
The farewell
A colleague’s last Friday. Instead of a card signed in a hallway, they leave with a jar — and hear from the team one voice a day for their first weeks somewhere new.
The milestone birthday
"40 notes for 40 years" from everyone who’s been part of them. The party ends; the jar keeps opening.
The wedding
Guests drop in wishes for the marriage, not just the day — and the couple opens one a week through their whole first year.
The new baby
The group chat’s love, rationed for the sleepless weeks. One note per 3am, signed by people who’ve been there.
The retirement
Thirty years of colleagues in one jar. The stories, the thank-yous, the one about the printer incident.
The hard season
When someone’s going through treatment, grief, or a brutal stretch — a jar means the support arrives every day, not just the first week.
One Price. No Chasing Anyone.
Collecting notes is free, always. Small jars (up to 7 notes) seal free. Bigger jars — most group jars — seal once for $12.99 and hold up to 100 notes and letters. The organizer pays; the twelve people in the group chat never get a payment link.
Open the JarQuestions, Answered
What is a Group Jar?
It’s a group card, rebuilt around anticipation. An organizer opens a digital jar and shares an invite link; friends, family, or coworkers each write a note and sign it — no accounts needed. The organizer seals the jar and gives the recipient one link. Notes unwrap one at a time (daily, weekly, or all at once), each revealing who wrote it.
How is this different from a group card or Kudoboard?
A group card is read once, in one sitting, and it’s over. A Group Jar drips: the recipient opens one signed note at a time over days or weeks, so a farewell or birthday keeps arriving long after the moment itself. The signature is revealed with each note — every slip is a small "who’s this one from?" surprise.
Do contributors need an account or have to pay?
Never. Contributors just open the invite link, write, sign, and drop it in the jar. Only the organizer ever pays, and only for jars with more than 7 notes.
How much does a Group Jar cost?
Collecting notes is always free. Sealing a jar with up to 7 notes is free too. Jars with more than 7 notes — most group jars — seal with a one-time $12.99 upgrade that holds up to 100 notes and letters. No subscription, no per-contributor fees.
Can the recipient see notes before the jar is sealed?
No. While the jar is collecting, the recipient’s link only shows that a jar is being filled for them. Notes stay hidden until the organizer seals the jar — and even then, each note stays sealed until its turn comes.
Can the organizer remove a note?
Yes. Before sealing, the organizer sees every contribution and can quietly remove any note — a duplicate, a typo someone regrets, or the joke that didn’t land.
What if people want to write more than a short note?
Any slip can be a full letter — up to 2,000 characters. The recipient sees a two-line preview and unfolds the whole thing. Jars mix one-liners and letters naturally.
