What Handwrytten is

Handwrytten sends personalized handwritten notes and gift cards on a customer’s behalf. Its custom-designed handwriting robots use real pens to write in a style selected by the customer. Available on the web, iOS, Android, and through an API, it supports flat and folded cards, postcards, and letters or notes, with one-to-one personalization. The company says more than 80% of its orders are for businesses. Business plans include QR code tracking, automated birthday and anniversary messages, multistep campaigns, unlimited Design Your Own cards, and API access. Listed integrations include Salesforce, HubSpot, Zapier, and Make, alongside a documented JSON API; the company also lists CDK Global and Dealervault. Notes are mailed using USPS First-Class postage, with domestic delivery typically taking 2–7 business days. Handwrytten says it ships to Canada and more than 180 countries. Its iPhone and Android apps let customers send notes and access gift cards and custom stationery. Handwrytten is headquartered in Tempe, Arizona. It states that its SOC 2 Type II program covers Security, Confidentiality, and Availability, and describes encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access controls, and multi-factor authentication for critical systems. Plans start at $100 a month; there is no free plan.
