Handwritten cards priced per card or pack: Simply Noted, Scribeless and Cardly

Simply Noted says its robots write each card with a real ballpoint pen. A 100-credit pack is $362.00 with postage inside, since a credit is $2.80 before $0.82 a card of postage. Unlimited is $497 a month flat plus $0.99 a note and postage. The 100-card pack covers two months of the contractor's 50 notes, and credits expire after 12 months.

Scribeless and Cardly price per item. In Scribeless's US-dollar view, a direct mail with envelope item is $1.99 for 1 to 499 items with stamps excluded and $2.81 with US stamps included. Its feature list says domestic postage is included, so read the switch position beside each figure. Scribeless describes handwriting styles and does not say whether a pen writes them.

Cardly's US view shows $3.60 a card with postage for 1 to 49 cards and $3.20 for 50 to 249. Without postage it shows $2.78 and $2.38, and its postage line is $0.82. Cardly says it makes typed text look like real handwriting.

Handwriting-style script: Thanks.io

Thanks.io's help center says it uses no real pens or human handwriters, and a digital rendering engine produces the script. A notecard is $3.04 on Pay as you go, which has no monthly fee and mails First Class per its help center, and $1.83 on Business at $49 a month, a Standard Mail rate. Postage is inside both, and the order screen shows the final price.

For the contractor's 50 notes, Business costs less than Pay as you go on notecards, whose break-even is about 41 a month at the list rates and 49 with First Class on both plans. Fifty 6x9 postcards, which can carry the script or a standard font, cost less on Pay as you go, since the 6x9 break-even is about 67 to 72 a month.
