Everyone has the same graduation photo; a letter locked to that day exists only once. daktilo prints the gift on paper and locks it to the day you choose — it stays closed until the reunion.
On the last day of school, everyone writes a letter; all of them lock to the same day. At the ten-year reunion a box of envelopes arrives at the table — the one gift the class gave itself.

From a teacher to a student
Leave the sentence a student is not ready to hear today for the day they will be. The envelope handed over at graduation becomes a gift kept for years.
Suggested opening: graduation day
From the family, for diploma day
Write it the week they start school, lock it to diploma day. The day the caps fly, the envelope that comes out of the bag is a gift from the very start of the road.
Suggested opening: diploma day
To yourself: for the first day of work
On graduation night, write to yourself: what you hope, what you fear. Lock it to your first day of work — that morning, a gift from the night you set out is waiting.
Suggested opening: first day of work · or five years on
How the class sets it up
1. Fix the reunion date today — "ten years from today". Everyone installs daktilo; no account, no sign-up.
2. Everyone writes their letter; it is encrypted on the phone and printed as an origami envelope. The envelopes go into one box — whoever keeps it, keeps it.
3. At the reunion the envelopes are handed out and the QRs scanned; the gift opens that day — and only that day. We never see what is inside at any step.
Will it still open ten years on?
The gift lives on paper, not on a server. For ten years it needs nothing from us — even if the company shut down, the envelope still opens on its day.
There is no early opening. Including for whoever keeps the box — part of the opening key cannot be derived before that date.
No accounts, no sign-up, no tracking. We never ask the class for an email; only you know who wrote the envelopes in the box.
If the paper is lost, the gift is lost — keep the box like a wedding album. That is also where the weight of an envelope comes from.
