About us
Built by people who believe in love stories.
Living Notebook started with a simple thought: the most meaningful words of our lives live in tiny green bubbles — and one day they'll be gone. We built a way to hold them. Really hold them. Bound in cloth, printed on paper that smells faintly of new books.
Couples who turned chats into keepsakes.
Countries we ship hardcovers to.
Messages we've bound into books.
Chats stored on our servers. Your data, your Drive.
A late-night text. A scrolling thumb. A wish to keep it forever.
Our story
It started with a question.
"What if we could print our chats?" One of us said it on a quiet evening, scrolling back to the very first message we'd ever sent each other. Within a week, the first prototype was bound in cardboard and string. It looked terrible. We cried anyway.
Today, Living Notebook ships linen-bound, gold-foiled keepsakes to 38 countries. We've stayed small on purpose — small enough that a real human reads every support email, and that every cover is approved by someone who cares whether the gold foil sits a millimetre too high.
What we believe
Three quiet principles
Your data, your drive.
We don't store your messages. Uploads live in your Drive. We borrow them to build the book and forget the moment it's done.
Made by humans.
Every book is checked by a designer before it prints. Every email is answered by a person. The robots help; the love is ours.
Books, not feeds.
We don't want your scroll time. We want one beautiful object on your shelf that you'll open in twenty years and still feel everything.
