Amazing work! I have been selling a product using a WhatsApp chatbot for some time now. iMessage would be a great addition to this so I will definitely get back to you once I find some more time to work on the project. Great work in getting this setup!

Amazing work on HFD! There is a lot happening in the space of mass-customization where I feel this fits right in!
We have a platform for automated sheet metal production and quoting. At the moment we only take completed 2D/3D technical drawings as an input although there is definitely a market for ordering parametric products too.
If you ever want to discuss the possibilities for HFD in the sheet metal industry let me know!

Hi everyone, I have removed the 2.99 payment from my postcard chatbot while the quarantines or my wallet last. Send a postcard to a friend or family member who is helping to fight the pandemic or who need some extra love in general!

After getting the question for a converter for AI, EPS and PDF files to SVG I have built a tiny demo using Inkscape and Ghostscript.
It seems however that although there is a ton of references online for the various conversions many of them are very outdated. I'm wondering if anyone used similar conversions in a production environment in the past and what approaches yielded the best results for them.
(if anyone wants to play around with the current implementation I'll leave an instance running here: https://inkscape-xiaaw3oz6q-ew.a.run.app)

Great job on releasing the project!
Had a similar iOS app years ago that would make chat groups with everyone in a 1km radius [1]. In the end our largest hurdle was getting enough users together per location.

There is a privacy statement on the bottom of the page that covers this. Let me know if you feel this is not thorough enough or not prominent enough.

WhatsApp has recently announced their plans for their API after a very long beta program (open to enterprise companies only). They will not be working directly with customers but have chosen 20+ partners through which their API will be available (e.g. Twilio).
At the time of building this project this was not yet available. And automating WhatsApp was somewhat of a hassle.

That’s spot on. We send the postcards from the UK so for the UK and Europe mainland we can manage 2-6 days even.

It’s definitely important! The addresses are stored for generating the postcard designs and shipping them to the recipient only.
The card is however printed by a third-party with whom we thus have to share the address details for shipping. From there on the is no additional privacy concernes compared to sending a postcard by hand.

None that I know of but it should be fairly easy in telegram. It perfect for chatbots! Integration with WhatsApp was the hardest part really. I know there used to be a version for Facebook messenger[1] though.

Awesome seeing this here! I hope this will get you the traction you need to keep it up and running! Happy New Year by the way!
I made a WhatsApp chatbot[1] a while back that helps you customize and send postcards from within WhatsApp.

Very interesting service! Could not reach your number from the Netherlands although I expect that is intentional.
Some feedback that did wonders for our service (melonpost.com) is to make the call to action different for desktop and mobile users:
- Your current link to the phone number only works on mobile so only show it here
- An option for desktop users is a "text me" button with an input field for the number to send a text to
