Lob is working well for batched or scheduled jobs where timing isn't as critical. For items that need to be sent quickly, it's still faster to manually produce.

Perfect for companies that send mail at scale and want automation without infrastructure. Less ideal for very small teams doing infrequent sends.

PostGrid
PostGrid is our main solution for managing and automating outbound mail. We use it to send both one-time letters and recurring transactional communications. The integration with our internal tools makes the entire process smooth from template creation to mail delivery tracking. It’s removed the delays, confusion, and manual errors we used to deal with regularly.
