How it works
Three steps, and most of the work is theirs
- 01
Pick a design and a date
Choose an intro design for the occasion, add who it’s for, and set the date you’d like everyone to record by.
Takes about two minutes
- 02
Share one link
Paste the link in your family or team chat, or invite people by email. We remind anyone who hasn’t recorded, three days and one day before your date.
No account or app for them
- 03
Put it together and send
Drag the clips into order, add photos, text slides and music, then create the final video. Download the MP4 or schedule it to arrive on the day.
Free HD download
Start with a design
Choose an intro that suits the occasion
Each design sets the opening titles, colours and music. Tap one to watch a sample, then make it yours.
Occasions
When a card isn’t quite enough
Hearing someone’s voice lands differently. These are the moments people most often make a group video for.
Milestone birthdays
A 40th, 60th or 90th is the classic. Ask old friends and far-away family to share one memory each.
Retirements and farewells
Colleagues past and present say thank you in their own words, played at the leaving do or sent on the last day.
Weddings and anniversaries
Guests who can’t travel still get to raise a glass. Couples often play it at the reception.
A new baby
Welcome messages from grandparents, aunts and friends that the family can show the child years later.
Graduations and teachers
A class thanking a teacher, or a family cheering on a graduate from three different time zones.
Get well and thinking of you
Gentle, short messages to lift someone during a hard week. Leave out the music and keep it simple.
For the people you invite
Easy enough for Grandpa
The fewer steps, the more people join in. Here’s everything your contributors see.
Record on any phone
They open the link, allow the camera and record. No app, no account, no password.
Or upload what they have
A clip already on their phone, or a favourite photo of you together, works too.
Prompts if they freeze
“Share a favourite memory” or “What do you admire most?” helps people get started.
A friendly nudge
If they forget, we send a reminder before your date, so you don’t have to chase anyone.
Good to know
Tips for a video they’ll watch twice
What we’ve learned from the group videos that get the biggest reactions.
- 1
Start two weeks early
People record late. A longer window and our reminders get you twice the clips.
- 2
Ask for one memory
A specific story beats “happy birthday”. Put the prompt in your instructions.
- 3
Keep each clip under a minute
Twenty people at a minute each is already a twenty-minute film.
- 4
Hold the phone sideways
Landscape clips fill the frame; portrait ones get bars on the sides.
- 5
Find a quiet spot
Background noise is the most common reason a message is hard to hear.
- 6
Save a surprise for the end
Put the closest friend or a group message last, just before the closing card.
Video or card? Plenty of people do both.
Not everyone likes being on camera. A group card lets the quieter ones write a message instead, and it’s free too.
What is a group video?
A group video is one video made from short messages recorded by many people: friends, family, classmates or teammates. Everyone records from their own phone or laptop using a link you share, and the clips are put together into a single video for the person you are celebrating.
How much does it cost?
Group videos are free during our launch, including the finished HD video download. If paid options are introduced later, the price will be shown before you pay, and videos you have already made stay free.
Do contributors need an account or an app?
No. People open your link in their phone or computer browser, allow the camera, and record. They can also upload a video or photo they already have. Only you, the organiser, need a free account.
How long can each message be?
People can record up to two minutes in the browser. Most good messages are 30 to 60 seconds, and you can trim any clip before the final video is made.
What happens after the deadline?
The deadline is a target, not a cut-off. We remind people who have not recorded three days and one day before it, and late clips are still accepted until you close the video yourself.
Can I download the finished video?
Yes. When you are happy with the order of the clips, choose “Create the final video” and we put it together as an MP4 with a title card, every clip, photos, music and a closing card. We email you when it is ready, usually within a few minutes.
Can I add music, photos and text?
Yes. Choose a background track and it gets quieter automatically whenever someone is speaking. You can also add photos, text slides between clips and an intro design for the occasion.
Who can see the video?
The video page is not listed anywhere public. Only people you share the link with can watch it, so share it with the recipient and the people who took part.
Can I send it on a specific date?
Yes. Add the recipient’s email and pick a date and time, and we deliver the video link on that day. Or download the MP4 and share it yourself on WhatsApp, email or a big screen at the party.

The earlier you share the link, the more people record. Free during launch, including the HD download.
