Sharing, on your terms
Close friends, not followers. Everything here is opt-in, one collection at a time, and anything you share can be ended.
Send a friend something, and let them decide
Add people by @handle — no address book upload, no suggested contacts. When a friend sends you a film they think you'll like, it doesn't drop into your Holigram uninvited: it waits in your approval queue with their name on it. Approve it and it lands in your Movies collection, filed as Want to Watch, still credited to them.
Your Sharing page carries a QR code, so adding someone standing next to you takes a scan instead of typing a handle.
Co-author a collection
Some collections have more than one author. A grocery list with your partner. A watchlist for the whole house. Everyone adds, everyone edits, and Holigram keeps track of who contributed what.
- A friendShare one collection with one person. They add, you add, and either of you can end it.
- A householdCreate it once and share into it. Collections it owns belong to the household itself, not to any one member.
- A way outLeave with a proper handover. Nothing anyone contributed is stranded.
A Prism pairs two collections, not everything you keep
Sometimes you want to pick something together — a film neither of you has seen, a game you'd both play. Pair a collection with the same one a friend keeps, and it becomes a Prism: a shared view of just those two collections, with each row tagged as yours, theirs, or both.
What crosses, and what never does. Only the one collection each of you paired — never your Holigram. Only the columns you both keep, so anything you invented stays yours. Ratings never cross, in either direction. And either of you can end it, at any time, without asking the other.
Because a Prism is grounded in a collection you both keep, it pairs like with like — your Board Games with their Board Games — rather than pointing any two collections at each other.

Ask about the people, not just the things
- Gift ideas that aren't guessesPick the occasion and a budget, and Holigram draws on what that person shares with you, the card they offer their friends, and your own private notes about them.
- Bring someone into a questionMention a friend in an ask and the answer accounts for both of you — "what should we watch" finally has a real answer.
- A card you choose to offerDecide which facts about you friends can see, so nobody has to guess your size at Christmas.
No friends on Holigram yet?
Nobody has friends on Holigram on day one. So @holigram moves in for a week — a guest account with a real Prism and a shared household — so you can try all of this instead of reading about it. After the week it leaves, and everything in your Holigram stays exactly as you left it.
