# Beacon

> Beacon delivers one message — held until you can't say it yourself. A daily check-in from milkweed.foundation.

Beacon is a single-wizard confirmer product. Each user prepares one pre-written message and assigns it to one recipient. The system runs a daily check-in. When you respond, nothing happens. When you stop responding through a configurable grace period, Beacon delivers your message — and only that message — to the recipient you chose.

Beacon is operated by Milkweed Foundation on the One Final Message platform (https://onefinalmessage.com). The product surface is intentionally small: one message, one recipient, one daily ritual.
