No. 001  ·  A small, deliberate idea

Give someone
your time.

Not a thing you bought. A morning. A long walk. The whole of next Sunday. Write it down, send it across, and mean it.

3 hours · anything you want

I've been meaning to say this for months. You're the reason I picked up writing again. Three hours — coffee, a long walk, or just sitting on the porch. Pick the day.

The idea
We've made gifts about things. Boxes, wrap, the right shade of something. But the people who love you mostly want one thing — a piece of the week you didn't give to anyone else. Timegift is a way to actually send that.

How it works

Three steps, no app needed on their end
01

Write the letter

Pick who, how much time, and what for. Or leave it open. The form reads like a letter, because it is one.

02

Send it across

By email, text, or WhatsApp. They don't need an account. They open a card with your handwriting in it.

03

Find the day

They pick a time that works. You both get the invite. Then the only thing left is to show up.

A real ledger

See every hour you've given and received. Quiet, not gamified.

Photo memories

After you redeem, drop a photo and a sentence. It saves.

No pressure to spend

Expiry is optional. Most gifts don't need one.

Random exchange

Opt in, and once a month you'll be matched with a stranger.

What would you do
with three hours of someone?

That's the question. The rest of this app is just trying to make the answer easier to send.
