The group video maker: collect video messages from friends, family or coworkers with one link. They record short videos from their phones, or upload ones they've already filmed, and every video plays back in order in one reel they'll actually rewatch. No app, no editing.
Your first 5 contributors are free · No credit card · About 3 minutes to set up
Your mom could do it. Folksee is a group video maker: you share one link; people record short videos (up to 45 seconds per question) from their phone or computer, with no app to install; and every video plays back in order in one private reel they can watch, keep and answer with a thank-you.
Start in 5 minutes
No app for guests
Nothing to editThis is an actual birthday reel a family made. Sixty seconds, and you'll understand the whole thing better than any explanation we could write.
After they watch their reel, the person it's for can record a one-minute thank-you and send it to everyone who contributed. Most people don't expect that part — and it's usually where the whole thing stops feeling like a gift and starts feeling like a conversation.
Easier to record, easier to share, and made for watching together.

Record someone who’s with you, right on your phone. Their videos show up under their own name. No account needed.

Tap Watch on a big screen and the reel plays full screen, one question at a time, with everyone’s name beside their video.

The same one link works for a whole office, a class or a donor list. Everyone records from wherever they are, and it arrives as one reel.
Someone's moving on. Send one link to the team, including the people who already left or work in other time zones, and it arrives as one reel for their last day.
Farewell videos for coworkers →Work anniversaries, employee of the year and year-end thank-yous, with voices from every department, not just the manager.
Employee appreciation videos →Students, parents and staff each record a short message, and the whole class shows up in one reel for Teacher Appreciation Week or the last day of school.
Questions to ask for a teacher →Nonprofits use Folksee to thank donors and volunteers in their own people's voices. For a limited time, nonprofits get 50 free credits.
Thank-you videos for nonprofits →One credit covers one person, no matter how many videos they record. No subscription, no ads, and credits you buy never expire. Example: a 30-person reel is your 5 free credits plus one 25-credit pack, $22 in all.
Enough for a small reel start to finish. No card required to try it.
You only pay for folks who actually record. Run out? Nobody's turned away: their videos wait until you add credits.
How Folksee compares: some group video tools price by total minutes of video and give you an editor with music and effects. Folksee prices per person, and there's nothing to edit. See Folksee vs Tribute, VidDay and Kudoboard →
It's the first thing everyone worries about. Here's what actually happens.
Nothing to install. No app to download. They tap the link in a text, sign in once, and the camera opens. Already filmed something? They can upload it instead. And they can re-record as often as they like — nobody sees the takes they don't send.
You send one link. That's the job. Folksee sends you one recap on days with new videos and a friendly nudge if things go quiet, so you always know who's recorded.
Four heartfelt videos still beats a group card everyone signed in thirty seconds. And your first five are free, so a small reel costs nothing.

Folksee is a group video maker. You share one link; people record short videos (up to 45 seconds per question) from their phone or computer, with no app to install; and every video plays back in order in one private reel they can watch, keep and answer with a thank-you.
Create a reel, pick up to 5 questions, and send one link by text, email, WhatsApp or your team chat. Everyone records or uploads their answers, and each video lands on the reel as it arrives. When you're ready, send the private gift link. There's nothing to stitch or edit: every video plays back in order, question by question.
No. People tap your link and record right in their phone or computer browser. They sign in once, with Google or an email address, which takes a few seconds, and there's nothing to install.
Your first 5 credits are free, with no credit card. One credit covers one person, however many questions they answer. After that, packs are 10 for $10, 25 for $22, 50 for $40 or 100 for $75, as little as 75¢ a person. A 30-person reel, for example, is your 5 free credits plus one 25-credit pack: $22. No subscription, no ads, and credits you buy never expire.
As many as you like. A credit is only used when someone actually records, and if you run out, nobody's turned away: their videos wait until you add credits.
Up to 45 seconds per question, recorded or uploaded, and each person can answer up to 5 questions. Long enough to say something real, short enough that the reel stays watchable.
Yes. Tap Watch on a big screen and the reel plays full screen, one question at a time, with everyone's name beside their video. Put it on a TV with AirPlay, Cast or an HDMI cable, or share your screen on the call. (Watch on a big screen isn't available on memorial reels yet.)
It's one of the most common reasons people use Folksee. Send one link to the team, including people who've moved on or work in other time zones, and it all arrives as one reel for their last day. Questions like “What did they teach you that stuck?” make it easy for people to know what to say.
Yes. Classes use it for teacher appreciation, teams use it to thank staff, and nonprofits use it to gather thank-you videos for donors and volunteers. For a limited time, nonprofits get 50 free credits: email support@folksee.com from your organization's email address.
Only the people you send it to. Reels live behind a private link, aren't listed or searchable anywhere, and there are no ads.
You can save any video in the reel to your phone or computer, one at a time, with the Save button. There isn't one combined download of the whole reel, and keeping the reel on Folksee is always free.
Yes. Once they've seen their reel, they can record a thank-you of up to 60 seconds, and everyone who sent a video gets to see it. Most people don't expect that part.
Free for your first 5 contributors. No credit card. Ready in minutes.
