How to schedule a card to arrive on a certain date
Tell your AI assistant the date the card should arrive by. No Errands works out when to mail it and holds the card until then, so you can order today for a birthday next month. The preview shows the mailing date and an arrival window. Until it is mailed, you can cancel for a full refund.
How to do it with No Errands
- Connect No Errands once. Add No Errands to Claude, ChatGPT or another MCP client with the address
https://api.noerrands.com/mcpand sign in with your email. The steps for each assistant are below. You do this once for every errand. - Add credits if you need them. A new account starts at $0.00. Ask your assistant to add credits and it gives you a checkout link. You pay in your own browser, never in the chat.
- Say who it is for and the occasion. Birthday, thank you, sympathy, holiday, congratulations, anniversary, get well or thinking of you. Give the assistant the name, the US address and what you want to say.
- Pick a design and a tier. The assistant shows you designs. A handwritten card is written with a real pen in the handwriting style you pick and arrives sealed in an envelope. A printed card is a 6x9 open postcard-style card.
- Preview it for free. The free preview shows the design, the full message, the address, the price and the mailing date. Name a date and the card is held and mailed so it arrives by then.
- Approve it. The assistant waits for your explicit yes before the card is made.
What to type
Once No Errands is connected, you can ask like this:
Send a handwritten anniversary card to my parents at 4 Orchard Way, Lansing MI 48933, arriving by September 20. Message: "35 years. Love you both."
The assistant checks first, shows you what it is about to do and the price, and waits for your yes.
