About Laterpost

Laterpost is built around one simple idea: a message becomes different when time gets between writing and reading.

Write a letter to yourself now. We keep it safely for twelve months, then prepare it by hand, stamp it, and place it into the post from an island post office. No notification arrives first. No digital copy interrupts the wait.

Why a year?

A year is long enough for ordinary details to fade and for plans, fears, and hopes to change shape. The delay is not a limitation of the service. It is the service.

For turning points

Write on a birthday, at New Year or the solstice, at the beginning of therapy, or on the day you start, stop, leave, return, or commit. Laterpost gives the present moment somewhere tangible to go.

Handled by people

Your letter remains a physical object. When its year is up, it is prepared and posted by hand so that something paper—not another alert—finds you in the middle of real life.
