“Their birthday was yesterday.”
HBD365 — never forget a birthday again. Add the birthdays that matter most, just once, by text. We’ll text you a week ahead and again on the day. It doesn’t get simpler than that. Feeling generous? Send a gift card in one tap.
No app. No calendar guilt. Just you, the one who always remembers.
I was sitting at a dinner table when someone mentioned that a loved one’s birthday had been the day before.
It was probably written all over my face: I can’t believe I forgot again.
HBD365 exists so that face never has to be yours.

You're in, friend. 🎂
Watch your phone — when your batch opens, HBD365 will text you first. Until then, go enjoy not thinking about birthdays.
Three steps. Zero apps.
The whole service runs over plain text messages — the one inbox you actually check.
1
Add your people once
Import your contacts, or just text us a name and a date — “Mom — May 12” — and it's in. Add a note about what they love while you're at it.
2
Get texted in time
Seven days before, you get the heads-up with your own notes quoted back. On the day itself, one more nudge. Early enough to matter, never noisy.
3
Send a gift in one tap
Reply SEND and a gift card matched to their interests is on its way with your message. The birthday person hears from you — never from a robot.
Thoughtful is the whole point
A reminder alone is just an alarm. HBD365 remembers the details that make it land like you never forgot.
Your notes, quoted back
Jot she's been wanting a garden book
anytime during the year. Your reminder reads it back to you right when it counts — so the gift feels personal, not panic-bought.
Gift cards that fit the person
$15, $25, or $50 gift cards matched to what they're into — bookshops for readers, coffee for the caffeine devout. Sent with your words, in your name.
Milestones get extra weight
Turning 30, 40, 50, 60? HBD365 flags the big round birthdays early with more lead time — some years deserve more than a card.
The day-after close
The morning after, one quiet text: How'd it land?
— a tiny moment to savor the win, and a chance to jot next year's note while it's fresh.
Try it: pick a birthday
Enter anyone's next birthday and see exactly what HBD365 would text you, and when. (Go ahead — use the one you almost forgot last year.)
Birthday (month, day & year)
Year is typeable — just key in 1955, no scrolling through a calendar.
Pick a date and your reminder schedule appears here — down to the day.
Honest answers
Do I need to download an app?
No — that's the point. HBD365 works entirely over text messages. If you can reply to a text, you can use the whole service.
When do invites open?
Founding invites go out in small batches so the first members get a genuinely good experience. Joining the waitlist holds your place in line and locks your founding price.
Does HBD365 ever message the birthday person?
Never directly. Gift cards arrive with your name and your message — from you, not from a service. The remembering is your credit to take.
What does it cost?
Final pricing lands with the founding launch, and waitlist members lock the founding rate for life. Gift cards are pay-as-you-send at face value — no markup for looking thoughtful.
Can I add birthdays from a photo of my Facebook list?
That's on the roadmap as a backup way to import. Contacts import and add-by-text come first — most people are fully set up in a few minutes.
