Hey Product Hunt! I'm Sanjay, one of the makers behind TogetherLetters.
We built this because social media stinks for actually keeping up with people you care about. You either never see their updates because an algorithm buried them, or you miss them in a flood of noise from people you don't really know. The irony of "social" networks is that they've made us worse at staying connected with the people who matter most.
Email was the answer. Everyone already has it, everyone already checks it, and it doesn't need anyone to learn something new. But the key insight was that people don't send updates on their own. So we nudge them. That simple act of asking on a regular schedule is what makes TogetherLetters work. People want to share, they just need a little prompt and a dead-simple way to do it.
We wanted this to work for the person in your family who still calls you to ask how to reset their password. That's why there's no account to create, no app to install, no login to remember. You get an email, you click the link, you write your update. If you can write an email, you can use TogetherLetters.
The no reply-all design was deliberate too. When your cousin shares that she got a new job, you reply to her - not to the entire group. That one decision turns a group newsletter into a launchpad for dozens of personal conversations. Your uncle responds to your travel update. Your sister reaches out about your kid's school play. Those one-on-one threads are where the real connection happens.
We launched a few years ago and have been growing with zero marketing to 779 groups, 5,294 users, and over 100,000 nudges sent, entirely through word of mouth. Families are our biggest use case, but we see friend groups, alumni networks, book clubs, companies, and teams of all kinds using it too. That organic traction told us we were onto something worth investing in seriously. That is why we're finally launching on Product Hunt now.
Free forever for groups of 10 or fewer on a biweekly or less frequent schedule. No catch and never any pressure to upgrade or keep coming back to the website (we'd rather you didn't after you set up your group unless you need to change something). If you want to try it with a larger or more frequent group, use the code PRODUCTHUNT for 3 months free (redeem by May 27th!).
We'd love to hear what you think, and we'll be here all day answering questions.
I've been using TogetherLetters with a group of us who have been connected via the WordPress community and it's a fun way to stay in touch. I always read it because there's little noise and I get to hear from people I know personally. Inevitably, I'm replying to what someone posted directly for more context or offer support. Highly recommended!
I’ve used TogetherLetters to keep in touch with high school buddies. I love the ease of use, gentle reminders of deadlines, and no-pressure or minimum requirement to participate!
I use togetherletters to stay in touch with a friend group in Australia UK and the Netherlands. It works like a charm. It is simple and keeps us in touch. I would love it if there was a picture that you could attach to your message.
As a Professional Grand Parent with 7 wonderful grandchildren, TL really makes it vital to stay in touch with these busy kids. They have their own life and what better way for them to tell us old (my grandson who is 7 said I was) people what activities they are interested in right now. The trick is to get them in the habit of a quick note to us each week. Together Letters takes care of that for our group. America is a huge canvas of families with daily lives so different from others but can be bound by an easy email sent out weekly. It truly is fun to read the new stories!
I love this tool! I use it with my friends (across cities, countries and continents). It's a great way to update each other on things and creates great conversations off the bat when we finally meet again.
I love TogetherLetters! Life gets so busy when you grow up. So my high school friend group uses TogetherLetters to stay in touch. Doom scrolling on social media looking for updates about people you actually know is a pain and becomes a huge waste of time. TogetherLetters keeps the friend updates you actually care about in one, readable spot. It's been a truly great way to keep in touch with friends.
TogetherLetters has been a fantastic way for one of my groups to stay in touch. We are all active on social media, but a lot of that is specifically about business. TL allows folks to pull back the curtain and talk about what’s actually going on in their life - not just the polished stuff that we see on social media.
Love the idea of async updates without the noise of social media. Do recipients need an account to read the updates or is it open? The friction of 'create an account to see this' kills a lot of sharing tools.
TogetherLetters is a fantastic tool. My nonprofit used it for a time to connect donors in community with one another, and we had a great response from our users. Since then, I've joined another group that shares updates on life and work. It's a nice change of pace from the social media feed frenzy we so easily find ourselves in. I think the world is a better place with TogetherLetters as an option for connection. All the best to the founders ~ they deserve every accolade for developing such a unique and needed product.
