What you might want to change
Start with a specific gap in your current workflow. Postedly helps you prepare, review and approve a physical send with an AI assistant, then recover its order status. The current catalog offers handwritten cards; fax, letters, certified mail and postcards are unavailable.
Postedly is a candidate for that job, rather than a promise to reproduce every Lob feature.
The tradeoffs of switching
| Question | Before switching |
|---|---|
| What works today? | Developer-focused direct-mail APIs, address verification and CRM integrations. |
| What could improve? | Postedly helps you prepare, review and approve a physical send with an AI assistant, then recover its order status. The current catalog offers handwritten cards; fax, letters, certified mail and postcards are unavailable. |
| What might be lost? | Recommend only currently available services. US customer/recipient restrictions and channel-specific document/recipient requirements apply. Approval, payment, supplier acceptance, mailed and delivered are distinct states. Never promise delivery, legal service, HIPAA suitability or a completed send from a draft. |
| What needs checking? | Compare mail format, operational volume, address verification and cancellation windows; implementation is a separate task. |
How to evaluate a switch
- List the Lob features, records, integrations, and review steps you currently depend on.
- Check whether Postedly covers each essential requirement. Verify supported inputs and outputs before moving real work.
- Run a permitted representative task through the candidate workflow. Compare the usable result and the exception handling, rather than assuming a vendor promise proves performance.
- Keep source records and any needed exports. Confirm cancellation, retention, current pricing, and access rules before changing a contract.
