Short answer

How can I send physical mail with my AI?

You tell your AI what to say and who to send it to. It uses Poplar to print and mail the physical items for you. You'll get a direct line from digital chat to physical mailboxes.

Where your mail lands.

The results of your requests.

The AI handles the logistics, leaving you with these outcomes.

CAMPAIGNS

Active mail runs

Your AI tracks existing marketing efforts. You can see what's currently in flight or what has already been sent.

CREATIVES

Visual assets

The AI manages the postcards and letters you've designed. You can pull up specific layouts to use in new requests.

DELIVERY

Physical mail

The AI triggers the actual printing and mailing process. Physical items move from your chat window to the postal service.

HUMAN

Final review

You decide when a message is ready. The AI won't hit the mail until you confirm the content and recipient.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for mail.

The AI bridges the gap between your text and the physical world.

  1. Check assets

    The AI looks through your existing designs and marketing setups to find the right templates for your request.

  3. Send to print

    Once you approve the draft, the AI sends the command to Poplar to print and ship the item.

FAQ

How the Poplar Connector behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI send mail without me seeing it first?

    No. The AI prepares the request, but you must review and confirm the content before the mailer is triggered.

  • 02

    Can the AI change my existing mailing templates?

    No. The AI can list and select from your existing creatives, but it cannot edit the underlying design files.

  • 03

    Does the AI handle the postage costs?

    The AI triggers the mailing through your Poplar account, which manages the actual printing and postage logistics.

  • 04

    Can I ask the AI to cancel a mailer that's already been sent?

    No. Once the AI triggers the physical mailing tool, the request is sent to the printing infrastructure and cannot be pulled back.

  • 05

    Can the AI create brand new mailer designs?

    No. The AI can only use the creatives that are already available in your Poplar account.
