A Personal Mail Courier for the VIP in Your Life
A playful email service that's privacy-first and still fun. Kids record voice messages on their Playdate, grandparents get an email, and when they reply - it shows up right back on the Playdate.
How It Works
1. Record
Kids record a voice message on their Playdate, talking naturally about their day, thoughts, or stories.
2. Transcribe
AI transcribes the voice message into text while a fun crank mini-game keeps them entertained.
3. Deliver
The letter is sent to grandparents, relatives, or family friends via email.
4. Reply
Recipients simply reply to the email, and their response appears in the child's Playdate inbox.

Designed for Little Ones
🔒 No Accounts Required
Your child doesn't need an email, a password, or any personal information. Just pick up and play.
👨👩👧 Parent-Controlled Contacts
You decide who your child can write to. They only see friendly names — never email addresses.
🐦 Delightful Experience
A charming postal bird guides kids through recording and sending, with playful animations throughout.
🎮 Crank to Send
Kids turn the Playdate's crank while their letter flies off. The wait becomes part of the fun.
📱 Safe Device
Playdate has no browser or app store. It's just games — and now, letters. Nothing else.
🗣️ Before They Can Write
Voice recording means even toddlers can send letters to grandparents. No reading or writing required.

Privacy You Can Trust
I built Play Post for my own kids. No tracking, no ads, no data selling — ever.
🔐 Content Never in Email
Recipients get a secure link, not your child's words. Even if their inbox is compromised, the letter stays private.
