The problem
The gift is easy. The card is the hard part
You stand in the shop with a pen and write “Happy birthday!” again. Online lists give you fifty generic lines and none of them sound like you, and AI messages sound like nobody.

FAQ
Questions people ask
What should I write in a gift card?
Something short that names the person, says why you are giving it and sounds like you. Pick the recipient and tone in the app, choose a message that fits, and change the underlined parts to add their name and a detail only you would know.
What do you write in a teacher thank-you card?
Thank them for something specific they did this year, mention what your child enjoyed and sign with both names. Choose Teacher and Thankful for ready messages to adapt.
Are the messages AI-generated?
No. Every message is written by hand. You choose by recipient and tone, then edit and personalise it.
How many messages are there?
More than 1,100: 420 in English, 356 in Spanish and 356 in Portuguese, with at least eight for every recipient and tone in each language. The Spanish and Portuguese messages were adapted from the English and have not been reviewed by a native speaker.
Are messages sorted by occasion?
By who the card is for and the tone, not by occasion. Edit the highlighted parts to fit a birthday, a thank-you or any other occasion.
Can I print the card?
Yes. Download an A5 PDF with your chosen font, or copy the text into your own card.
Can I change the font?
Yes. Choose a font and bold or italic before you download.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes, so you can find the words in the shop, right before you write the card.
