Handwritten letters, cards, and envelopes

Mail merge

Handwritten mail merge from CSV or Excel

Upload CSV or Excel — every row becomes its own handwritten card. Placeholders pull from any column, so whole sentences change from row to row, not just the name.

01The template — write it once
Hi first_name, Thank you for choosing us for your service in city this month. technician told me everything went smoothly — if anything ever needs a second look, one call and we're there. — Dana, Harbor & Pine Home Services
02Your spreadsheet — every row a recipient

A spreadsheet, customers.xlsx, with columns first_name, service, city, month, and technician. Row one: Emma, roof repair, Portland, June, Cole. Row two: Priya, gutter replacement, Salem, July, Alex. Row three: Marcus, chimney inspection, Bend, August, Sofia. Row four: Ava, deck refinishing, Eugene, September, Noah. Row five: Daniel, fence repair, Corvallis, October, Maya. Each row becomes its own handwritten card.

Every row can also get its own addressed envelope — at half the price of a letter
