The easiest birthday video maker — friends and family record short videos from their phones, and we turn them into one reel. No app. No editing. Better than anything you'd have panic-bought.

Nobody rereads a group chat. But everyone in that chat has something real they'd say about this person, if anyone ever asked them to.
People don't volunteer the good stuff. Give them a specific question and the same person who'd have sent a cake emoji tells a two-minute story instead.
The friends from school, the ones who moved, the family two flights away. They can't all be at dinner. They can all be in the reel.
The flowers die, the messages scroll away. A reel is still on their phone the following February, on a day when they need it more.

“Say happy birthday” gets you fifteen people saying happy birthday. A real question gets you the stories.
30, 40, 50, 80. The ones where people fly in, or wish they could. A reel gathers everyone who would have been there.
First year at university, a new city, working abroad. The people who'd normally be around the table can still show up.
Grandchildren scattered across states or countries, all in one reel, saying the things they'd never think to put in a card.
Cousins, classmates, the coach, the grandparents. Something they'll still have long after the party is a blur.
One credit covers one person, however many videos they record. No subscription, no ads, and credits never expire — so leftovers roll into the next birthday.
Enough for a small reel start to finish. No card required to try it.
You only pay for folks who actually record.
No. They tap your link and record right in their phone or computer browser. No downloads, no signups.
Your first 5 credits are free. After that credits come in packs that get cheaper the more you add: 10 for $10, 25 for $22, 50 for $40, or 100 for $75. One credit covers one person however many videos they record.
About a week is comfortable, but people put these together in a day when they've left it late. You can keep it open after the birthday too.
Only the people you invite. The reel is private and isn't listed or searchable anywhere.
No. Folksee compiles the finished reel for you.
Yes. After watching it they can record a one-minute thank-you that goes back to everyone who contributed.
Five heartfelt videos still beats a group chat full of cake emojis. And your first five are free, so a small reel costs nothing.
