Letterloop takes an old-school approach to keeping family and friends connected in a meaningful way. It helps you build email newsletters that everyone in a group contributes to by asking (and answering) intentional questions.

We knew we loved it when: We realized how much more connected we felt by reading an email update. Seeing vacation pics, songs our loved ones have been listening to, and links to articles they’re reading felt so much more meaningful in Letterloop’s newsletters than in our cluttered social feeds.

Our biggest surprise: Going deeper with friends with the help of Letterloop’s Question Bank. Thoughtful prompts (like “What’s a realization you’ve had about yourself recently?”) sparked honest, personal responses from our friends that we didn’t expect.

Our favorite discovery: Letterloop makes it easy to see who’s already contributed to a newsletter you’re putting together—and to gently nudge friends for their response as the scheduled delivery date approaches.
