What is a friend group recap?

A home for the moments that make no sense outside the group.

A friend group recap is a private digital memory book for friends, built as a responsive website instead of a feed or a folder. It gives the year, trip, season, or shared chapter a beginning, middle, and close.

Why make one

A home for the moments that make no sense outside the group.

The best friend-group memories are scattered: a camera roll, a screenshot, one line from the chat, the name everyone calls a particular night. A recap gives those fragments an editorial shape without turning the group into public content.

  • Close out a school year or summer together
  • Mark the end of a lease, season, camp, or trip
  • Make an online friend yearbook without public profiles
  • Turn a group photo recap into one durable link

Contributions

Everyone can add to the story without joining another network.

After the creator claims an account in the planned workflow, recap-scoped invite links let contributors add material without creating accounts. The creator reviews what belongs in the finished version.

Drafts begin private. Published customer recaps default to unlisted and remain excluded from public search.

Price and space

Start free. Publish one recap when it feels finished.

Basic is $4.99 once for 40 photos and 12 members. Premium is $8.99 once for 100 photos, 20 members, and every theme. Paid plans include 5 years of hosting.

Good to know

Questions, answered

What goes in a friend group recap?

A cover, people, a photo story, memories, quotes, positive awards, and a closing message. Empty optional sections can stay out.

Is this an online friend yearbook?

It can do that job, but it is smaller and more story-led than a formal yearbook: one group, one chapter, and one responsive website.

Do contributors need accounts?

No. The planned contribution flow uses recap-scoped invite links. The creator needs an account before sending invitations.

Will the recap appear in search?

No. Customer recap pages are noindex at launch and default to an unlisted sharing state.
