The gap

Businesses need to automate the sending of personalized physical mail, such as client thank-you cards or business cards, via API. Current services lack the integration between custom PDF generation, automated printing, and global delivery addresses.

“We want to send handwritten cards online to clients for birthdays, thank yous after tax season and referrals. There are around 400 clients so keeping a spreadsheet of birthdays and remembering who needs what isn't going to happen. Ideally I'd just upload the dates, write the message and have someone else deal with the actual card and mailing. Anyone doing this for a professional services business?”
