Some words live too long inside us.
The letter you've carried for years
the one who left,
the one you lost,
the you you used to be.
This is where those words finally get to exist.
The Unlived Project is an anonymous space where you can write what you never said—and receive an AI-generated reply.
Not therapy. Not advice. Just... someone listening. Someone answering.
The words you should have said. The apology that came too late.
Complex feelings that deserve to be spoken.
Connections that ended without goodbye.
The person you were before everything changed.
Sometimes you don't need someone specific to listen. You just need the words to exist somewhere outside your head. Scream into the void. The void screams back—gently.
And AI writes back. Tenderly. Honestly. The way you wish they would have.
Because some conversations never happen.
Because grief doesn't have an inbox.
Because sometimes you need to hear "I'm sorry" or "I forgive you" or "I know"—even if it's not real, even if it's just words on a screen.
This is for the letters that live in your notes app. For the drafts you'll never send. For the words that deserve to exist somewhere, even if no one else will ever read them.
Your original letter is never shown to anyone. Ever.
Only the AI's reply can be shared in our public exhibition—and only if you choose to submit it.
We don't track you.
We don't train on your words.
We don't even ask for your name.
Someone who's written too many unsent letters.
