A retirement video from everyone who worked with Pat.
Colleagues, old and new, each record a short message on their phone. Posy turns them into one film for Pat’s last day.

How it works
Start a Posy
Say who it’s for, choose Retirement, and add their last day.
Send the link
Post it in the team chat or an email round the office, or give people their own. You’ll see who’s recorded, so you know who to nudge.
Give it on the day
When you’re ready, every message becomes one film, with music and everyone’s name. It usually takes about 10 minutes.
What colleagues record
Three ideas, if they’d like them:
- Congratulate Pat
- A time they made work better
- What they should do first
You can change them. Each message is up to 20 seconds, usually plenty for one good story, and anyone can redo theirs as often as they like.
Everyone from a whole career
A career is a lot of people: colleagues who’ve moved on, people in other offices, friends who retired years ago. Anyone with the link can record, with no app, no account and no work login. A film holds up to 60 messages, and if you’d like, we’ll send you a daily update on who’s recorded.
What Pat gets
A link to watch, with everyone’s name on their message and each message on its own underneath. Once Pat has it, you can send the film to everyone who’s in it, so the whole team can watch too. Choose the finished film and Pat can download it and keep it forever, in full quality.
Questions people ask
Can colleagues who’ve left record?
Yes. Anyone you send the link to can record, on their phone or on a computer with a webcam. They don’t need an app, an account or a work login.
How many people can join?
One film holds up to 60 messages.
Can I keep it from Pat until the day?
Yes. Posy never contacts Pat. Everyone who records is asked to keep the link away from Pat, and the film’s link doesn’t play until you deliver it.
Can I check it before Pat sees it?
Yes. You watch it first, and you can leave any message out and make it again.
What does it cost?
Sending the film is free. The free film says “Made free with posy.video” on every message, plays in 720p and stays up for 3 months. The finished film — no watermark, full quality, yours to keep — is £24.99, or £14.99 for our first hundred. Friends never have to pay.
More occasions
And for the hardest days, a gentler Posy in memory.
A posy is a small bunch of flowers, gathered by hand and given with love. This one is made of voices.
