Unveil: the original gift that surprises every single day

Discover Unveil: a personalized calendar where each day unlocks a surprise for someone you love. Photos, letters, videos — an original gift, made with heart.

You've given a gift that made someone happy for thirty seconds. The smile, the thank you, the wrapping torn apart — and then the thing ends up in a drawer. We've all been there. What if the best gift wasn't an object at all, but a series of personalized surprises the other person discovers day after day?

A gift that unfolds over time

The idea behind Unveil is simple: instead of giving one thing on the big day, you create a personalized calendar with a surprise for each day. Every morning, a new door unlocks. What's behind it — a memory, a photo, a message, a song — that's entirely up to you.

Couple anniversary, Christmas, Valentine's Day, a reunion after weeks apart: the calendar adapts to any occasion. You pick the start date, the end date, and you fill each day with whatever feels right.

The result is an original personalized gift that builds anticipation and creates a daily ritual between you and someone who matters.

How it works

You create, they discover

You head to Unveil, create your calendar, and fill in the days one by one. Each day is a door. You choose what goes inside, customize the visual theme, and when everything's ready, you share a simple link.

No download needed. The person clicks, and each day, they discover what you've prepared for them.

What you can put inside each day

This is where it gets interesting. You can mix formats from one day to the next:

  • Photos — your memories, places you love, a stolen selfie
  • Letters — with a typewriter effect and a wax seal, like a real letter sent by post
  • Videos — a face-to-camera message, a montage of your moments together
  • Voice messages — your voice, plain and simple
  • Spotify playlists — the soundtrack of your story
  • Questions — to get a reaction and spark a conversation
  • Stories — photos that play in sequence, like Instagram stories
  • Galleries — multiple photos at once, for the days when one isn't enough

Monday a photo, Tuesday a voice message, Wednesday a letter. It's this variety that makes every morning different. Want to see all the formats in detail? Take a look at our format guide.

Who it's for

Couples, near or far

An anniversary coming up. Valentine's Day 5,000 km apart. A reunion after weeks of separation. A surprise calendar turns the waiting into a daily rendezvous — a game between you two that makes the distance feel shorter.

You don't need to be a poet or a creative type. If you know the person — their memories, their tastes, what makes them smile — you have everything you need.

Family and friends

It's not just for couples. An advent calendar for your parents, filled with family photos. A countdown to a wedding, put together by the best man. An original birthday gift for a close friend, with one memory for each year of friendship.

Christmas, a new baby, a trip, moving day, Mother's Day — there's no shortage of occasions.

The occasions you make up

You don't need a holiday on the official calendar to surprise someone. "30 reasons why I love you." "14 memories from our summer." "7 days until we're together again."

The best gift is often the one no one was expecting.

Digital DIY: made with heart, sent in a click

You know the classic handmade gifts — the jar filled with little notes, the photo album glued together by hand, the handwritten letters sent through the mail. They're touching, they take time and thought, and that's what gives them value.

The problem? International shipping costs. Delays. The package stuck in customs. Or simply the fact that you don't have three hours to spare cutting kraft paper.

Unveil carries the same intention — time, thought, personalization — without the logistics. You build your calendar from your couch, share it with a link, and it arrives instantly on the other side of the world.

A handmade gift, digital edition. DIY without the scissors.

You can build a complete calendar in under an hour. And if you're short on inspiration, nothing stops you from filling in the days as you go — even after launch.

What it changes for the person who receives it

A regular gift is a moment. A surprise calendar is a story that unfolds day after day.

The person who receives your calendar doesn't open it all at once. They live it. Every morning, the same quiet question: "what did they prepare for me today?" They grab their coffee, open the day's door, and for a few minutes, they're with you — even thousands of kilometers away.

It's the anticipation that makes the gift precious. That daily bit of suspense, the habit that builds between you. And when the last door opens, it's not just a calendar that ends — it's a complete memory that stays accessible, ready to be reopened and reread months later.

Not an object gathering dust on a shelf. A living memory.

Create my calendar

Giving a gift is easy. Giving attention, day after day, is rarer.

A surprise calendar is time you take for someone — packed into doors that open one by one, morning after morning. And sometimes, it's in these small daily rendezvous that the most beautiful memories are hiding.
