v1.0 - opening the cove to visitors

Jan 5th 2026

  • No accounts, no tracking, and no data collection beyond the letter a writer chooses to share.
  • Visitors can browse and read letters quietly, without metrics.
  • Long letters are shortened on the landing page, and presented in full when selected.
  • Letters follow a simple structure: the letter itself, an optional intended recipient, an optional sign-off, and a submission date.
  • Writers can experience a guided writing experience with Cove - this space's quiet AI presence - though letters cannot yet be submitted.
  • Guided writing conversations are moderated by Cove for safety in line with guidelines stated here.
  • This website can be navigated using keyboard-only controls, with screen reader support and is mobile-friendly.
  • Basic errors from third-party services are surfaced to visitors and writers.
  • Clear channels created for contact and support, including anonymous contact via a third-party provider and direct email.

This marks the initial opening of the space - small, intentional, and held with care.

v1.1 - helping visitors settle better

Jan 19th 2026

  • Letters that have been generated by AI has been clearly marked with a tag.
  • Repopulated the archive with a curated range of letters reflecting broader relationship types and emotional tones.
  • AI-generated letters are now tagged with their emotional tone and relationship focus, offering a clearer sense of what each letter explores at a glance.

This update deepens the emotional texture of the space - not by adding more, but by being more precise about what's already here.
