Lob vs. Scribeless

Lob has always been able to show us our mailing and projected volume very timely and accurately, and has consistently delivered solutions in the majority of cases. However, due to the complexity and variability of the insurance industry, unique situations occasionally arise that may fall outside their current capacity or operational model.

• Autocomplete for our forms that allow a user to SKIP typing
• Printing and mailing documents automatically over API

• I'm not sure why it defaults to the test environment once we're logged in.
• Make it easier to navigate back to the search results without starting a new search.

In my opinion, the admin usability is horrendous. Specifically when looking for specific mailers, the search and pagination UI requires back end loading, it doesn't allow opening in new browser windows, it doesn't remember state when clicking into mailer requiring you to search again. I've started using Claude Code integrated with the API instead of clicking through the Admin UI because, in my experience, it is so hard to use.

good support, not many examples I can think of

Root keeps Lob because it is already deeply integrated into our systems, and replacing it would require significant engineering effort with limited expected cost savings. As well as the unknowns that come with other options, switching vendors would likely require a significant multi-quarter effort without clear cost savings or efficiency gains.

it can be better because the volume pricing method doesn't benefit the clients much but lob itself

Incentivized

it will scale very well if its for saas companies

Incentivized

decent overall

• Extremely positive reducing cost of managing the mail production process and spending on paper, printers, and printer supplies.
• More secure than sending spreadsheet to a mailing house.
