Launching 2026 · Private beta

A weekly journal for new dads.

Every Sunday, one question worth answering. Write or speak your reply in 60 seconds or 10 minutes. A year from now, you'll have a record of the year you became a dad — in your own words.

One email when it launches. Nothing else.

You'll forget most of it.

The first year goes fast. You're tired. The days run together. Six months in, you can't remember what your kid was like at three months — let alone what you were like.

The tracking apps log feeds and sleep. They don't ask you what you were thinking at 3am. They don't ask what surprised you this week. They don't ask what kind of dad you're trying to be.

This does.

Three things, that's it.

A weekly prompt

Every Sunday night, you get one question. Specific to this week of fatherhood. Designed to take 60 seconds or 10 minutes, your call.

Your record, not hers

Your entries. Your voice. Your perspective. Not shared with your partner, not tied to a feeding chart. This is what you saw.

Years from now, it's a gift

At 18, your kid won't care how many ounces of formula they drank. They'll care what you wrote the night they were born.

No setup. No streaks. No guilt.

  1. 1

    Sign up.

    Tell us when your kid was born. That's it.

  2. 2

    Sunday night, your phone buzzes.

    This week's question. Tap to answer — type, speak, or attach a photo.

  3. 3

    It compounds.

    Week by week, your record builds. "On this day last year" surfaces. Milestones get their own chapters. You can export it as a book whenever you want.

Real questions from real weeks.

A few examples of what shows up on a Sunday.

WEEK 4

You haven't slept properly in a month. What's the smallest thing your partner did this week that you're grateful for?

WEEK 12

You're starting to feel like you know what you're doing. What's one thing you were wrong about?

WEEK 26

Your kid is becoming a person. Describe them in five words — the words you'd use, not the ones on a baby app.

WEEK 52

It's been a year. Write a letter to the version of you who brought them home from the hospital.

$35 a year.

Less than two coffees a month.

  • · Unlimited entries, voice notes, photos
  • · Weekly prompts for the first year, ongoing prompts after
  • · Export your record as a PDF or printed book anytime
  • · Your data is yours — export and delete whenever
  • · 14-day free trial when we launch

No monthly plan. This is the kind of thing you commit to or you don't. We'd rather you decide once a year than feel a bill every month.

Questions.

What if I miss a week?
You haven't broken anything. The prompt waits. No streaks, no badges, no guilt. Write when you can.
Can my partner see what I write?
No. This is your record. If you want to share something specifically, you can copy it out. The default is private.
Where does my data live?
On our servers, encrypted, in a database you can export from at any time. If you cancel, you can take everything with you.
I'm an experienced dad, not a new one. Is this for me?
The first year of prompts is tuned for new dads. The weekly cadence and reflection framing work for any age, and we add new prompt themes regularly. Try the free trial when we launch.
I'm not a writer.
You don't need to be. Voice notes work. Photos work. Two-sentence answers work. The point is showing up, not writing well.
When does it launch?
When it's good enough that I'd pay for it myself. Realistically: 2026. Join the waitlist and you'll know the day it ships.

The first year happens once.

Your kid is one day older than they were yesterday. The good weeks and the hard ones both go somewhere — into a record, or into the blur.
