We have a date. Y.O.D.O. opens to the public on 15 May 2026.
For the people who have been with us through the focus groups, the questions, and the quiet conversations about what this service should feel like: thank you. The shape of Y.O.D.O. today is the shape you helped us find.
This article is a short note about what is happening between now and launch, and what joining the waiting list means.
What the waiting list is
It is a simple email list. No card details. No commitment. You give us your email and we send you one message when the doors open on 15 May, with a clear link to start your account.
That is the whole list.
The 15% offer, in plain words
Everyone on the waiting list when we launch keeps 15% off their Y.O.D.O. subscription, for as long as they stay subscribed. If you pause, the discount waits for you. If you cancel and come back later, the discount does not.
It is our way of saying thank you to the people who chose to trust the idea before it was a finished product.
The offer applies to whichever plan you choose at launch, and it stays with you if you upgrade or downgrade between plans later.
Why we are doing it this way
A waiting list is not a marketing trick. It lets us open the service in a calm, controlled way, with the people who actually want it, rather than chasing volume on day one.
It also gives us time to make sure that on 15 May, the things we have promised, including Check-ins, Messages, Delegates, the 14-day cardless trial, and the support team behind it all, are working the way they should.
What stays the same
Everything you have already read on this site about how Y.O.D.O. works is what will be there on day one. The way Check-ins are scheduled. The way Messages stay sealed until a passing is verified. The way Delegates are contacted. The way your data is held in the UK and EU under GDPR.
If anything material changes between now and launch, we will say so, here in the Journal and in the email we send to the waiting list.
What to do now
If Y.O.D.O. feels right for you, join the waiting list. If you are not sure yet, the rest of the site is the best place to look. Start with How It Works, or read about who Y.O.D.O. is for.
If you have questions that are not answered anywhere on the site, write to us at info@yodo.ltd. A real person will reply.
We will see you on 15 May.
