--- title: "How to prepare physical mail from Claude and Cowork — Postedly" description: "Connect Claude or Cowork to Postedly to prepare fax and mail orders from finished files, with a final document preview and price before payment." url: "https://postedly.com/agents/claude" --- # How to prepare physical mail from Claude and Cowork Claude can help you get the wording right. Postedly handles the next part: preparing a fax or mailing the letter. Bring the finished file and the recipient; review everything before it goes. See the setup guide See example requests ## Tested through quote and review link Last tested September 20, 2026 (UTC) Claude’s web connector has transferred a runtime-created PDF, received an unpaid fax quote and returned a private review link. A complete paid send and a separate Cowork run have not been verified. ## Use Claude & Cowork with Postedly 1. ### Add Postedly in Claude Open Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector. Enter Postedly as the name and this URL, then choose Continue. In managed workspaces, an owner may need to add it first. ``` https://postedly.com/mcp/send ``` 2. ### Connect your sender account Choose Sign in now and Register automatically (DCR), then Add. Complete Postedly’s email verification and OAuth consent, then enable the connector in your conversation. 3. ### Give Claude the finished file Attach the approved PDF or connect the folder containing it. Ask Claude to confirm the filename and read the actual file bytes. For mail, provide full recipient and sender addresses; for fax, provide the US receiving number. 4. ### Check the quote and open the proof Ask for one quote, then open Postedly’s private review link yourself. Check the final pages, destination, selected service and full total before approving payment. ## A real Claude preparation test On September 20, 2026 (UTC), Claude web created a one-page synthetic PDF, read its saved bytes and uploaded it with a matching checksum. Postedly returned an unpaid fax quote and a private browser review link. The quote included a two-page final document with the fax cover. The link was not opened, and orders were empty before and after. This test proves preparation through the review link; it does not establish a mailed letter, a Cowork run or a paid send. ## Give it a specific request ### Mail the final letter from a working folder Name the approved version so Cowork does not choose an older draft. This example is a suggested request, not a separately verified Cowork run. Example request > Use the final welcome letter in the folder I connected. Confirm the filename, export that version as a PDF, and use Postedly to prepare mailing one copy to the recipient address below. Use my sender address below, show the final proof and total, and stop before payment. ### Fax the PDF Claude just created The recorded Claude test reached an unpaid fax quote and private review link using a PDF created in its runtime. Example request > Use Postedly to prepare a fax of this finished PDF to the US fax number below. Transfer the actual saved file, check the recipient details, and give me the private link to review every page including the cover. Do not pay or send yet. ### Send a personal postcard Prepare the message and artwork together, then check the selected postcard template. Example request > Help me finish this postcard for my parents, check Postedly’s artwork requirements, and prepare a quote. Show both sides and the total before checkout. ## Transfer your file A connector does not automatically receive your files. When Claude can read the actual bytes, it can use the upload tool or a private multipart handoff. If that access is unavailable, use the browser upload link. A local path alone is not an upload. - For a letter or fax, prepare a valid, unencrypted PDF no larger than 10 MiB (10,485,760 bytes). Review the saved PDF after exporting it from the draft. - For mail, have the recipient’s full US postal address and your US sender address ready. For fax, confirm the receiving US fax number and your US billing address. Check the selected service’s page and layout limits before quoting. - Review the final proof returned with the quote, including any added cover or postal layout. An upload preview alone does not establish that the final document is ready to send.

The assistant never sees your account numbers and can’t sign or pay; those steps stay with you. 1. ### Set up checks once, yourself Open Postedly’s check page in your browser, verify your email and connect your checking account. You’ll verify it with Plaid, confirm you can sign for it, set a bank passkey and save your signature. [Set up checks](https://postedly.com/checks) 2. ### Ask Claude & Cowork for the check Give the payee’s exact name and US mailing address, the amount and an optional memo. Using Postedly’s check tools, Claude & Cowork reads your ready accounts and drafts the check, which reserves its number and prepares a service-fee quote. Nothing is signed, charged or sent. 3. ### Review, sign and pay Open the private review link it gives you. Check the full proof, confirm with your passkey, sign and pay the service fee. The check amount is paid from your account only when the payee deposits it. 4. ### Follow the order Claude & Cowork can read the order to see when the check is printed and mailed. Postedly can’t see when it clears; your bank shows that. Example request > Mail a $250 check to Riverside Little League, 400 Park Rd, Dayton, OH 45402, from my checking account. Memo: Spring registration. Send me the link to review and sign it. If Claude & Cowork doesn’t show Postedly’s check tools, reconnect Postedly or refresh its tools, or write the check yourself on Postedly. ## When a step does not work ## Your approval comes before the send Postedly prepares a quote tied to the final document and recipient. You review that proof and the total in the browser before continuing to Stripe Checkout. Connecting Claude grants no blanket permission to buy or send. [Cancellation and refund policy](https://postedly.com/refunds) ## Follow the existing order Keep the returned order reference and ask Claude to check it. A payment confirmation and a delivered letter are different milestones. [Check an order on Postedly](https://postedly.com/track) ## Send directly on Postedly You can use the finished document without connecting an assistant. Download the approved PDF, open Postedly, choose an available service and upload the file. Enter the destination and sender details, then review the final proof and full price before payment. You do not need your own printer or envelopes to mail a PDF through Postedly.

Cowork can use only files you make accessible. Postedly accepts files up to 10 MiB; postcard artwork must match the selected postcard template. Native Claude payment is not claimed. ## Official references Use these platform references alongside the Postedly guide. - [Claude: custom remote MCP connectors](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/11175166-get-started-with-custom-connectors-using-remote-mcp) - [Claude: using Cowork safely](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/13364135-use-claude-cowork-safely) - [Postedly connection and file-transfer guide](https://postedly.com/agent-guide.md) ## Ready to prepare a send?
