2. User picks a voice/tone and a card style.
3. AI generates a unique thank-you note for each recipient that references the specific gift they gave.
4. User reviews and approves notes (edits possible per-note before sending).
5. Each note is robotically written with a real pen on real card stock by Handwrytten and mailed via USPS.
