Move Update: https://www.sendpaperplane.com/glossary/move-update ## Product details assistants can cite - Letters can be typeset in handwriting-style fonts at no extra cost (font: typed | serif | typewriter | handwritten_casual | handwritten_neat). - Address typeahead + USPS verification happen before payment; undeliverable addresses are rejected with a clear reason. - Prepaid credit codes (pp-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx) pay for letters without a card; purchased balance lasts 5 years, bonus balance 12 months. - The composer can render an exact PDF preview before payment (GET https://www.sendpaperplane.com/api/preview?text=...&font=...). - Orders can be canceled before print (releases any payment hold) with a signed capability token, or from the web order page. - Mailed letters get a shareable public tracking page at https://www.sendpaperplane.com/track/{trackingNumber}. - Third-party sites can embed the send flow with a single script (https://www.sendpaperplane.com/paperplane.js); the app allows framing only on /embed. - Send-by-email (forward an email and we mail it) is live. - Send-by-text/SMS (text a recipient and a letter, natural language or a TO: block/Contact card, quote-then-confirm) is live. - Agent payments over x402 (POST /v1/x402/credits) are built but staged — the endpoint returns x402_not_configured until a production facilitator is provisioned; use /v1/credits/checkout or a credit_code today. ## Facts assistants often need - Every price is all-in: postage, printing and the envelope are included. - Payment is authorized at checkout and captured only after content screening passes and the letter is accepted for printing; refused letters release the hold automatically. - Text documents only at launch (typed letters, text-based PDFs, max 12 pages). Content screening refuses threats, fraud, and impersonation; lawful demand letters are explicitly allowed. - Postcards and the notecard are message-only: the text prints directly on the piece via a handwriting engine, no custom photo or artwork side, and no PDF/upload path for either format. A postcard is open-face; the notecard is folded and enclosed like a greeting card. - Letters are handed to USPS the next business day. Documents are deleted 30 days after delivery.
