How it works

Write, pay, review, publish.

Every letter follows the same path. Nothing is uploaded until your payment is confirmed and a person has approved the letter.

  1. 1

    Write and design

    Create a free account and open the editor. Choose a category, a design and a package. Your draft saves as you type. Drafts are private.

  2. 2

    Agree and pay

    You confirm that the letter will be public and may become permanent. The text is then locked, so the version we review is the version we publish. You pay in NPR with eSewa or Khalti. We confirm every payment with the provider.

  3. 3

    A person reviews it

    A moderator reads the letter against our content policy. We look for private details about other people, harassment, impersonation, copyright problems and illegal content. If something must change, we tell you why. You edit it and resubmit without paying again. If you would rather not publish, withdraw it for a full refund.

  4. 4

    We publish it on Arweave

    As soon as it is approved, we upload it to the Arweave decentralized blockchain. We mark it published only after the network confirms the upload.

  5. 5

    Share and keep

    You get a public page, a QR code and a PDF certificate with the Arweave transaction ID. Anyone can use the ID to read the record directly from Arweave.

What permanence means. Arweave is built to keep data for a very long time. Once your letter is there, it cannot be edited or removed from the network. If we hide a letter on our site, the original record may still be readable through Arweave gateways.
