FAQ

Questions

Can I see my card being drawn?

Yes. You get a video of the robot drawing your card. Keep it, share it, or send it to the person the card is for.

What’s the link on the back of the card?

Every card gets its own short link, drawn on the back. It opens a page with the video of the robot drawing that card, so whoever receives it can watch it being made. The page shows the drawing and the video, never your photo or your message.

What if I don’t like the preview?

Then nothing gets drawn. You see the drawing before the robot starts, and you can try another photo until you love it.

Will the card look exactly like the preview?

Very close. It draws exactly the lines you approved, but real marker on paper means tiny differences in the ink. That is what makes it an original.

Can I add a message inside?

Yes. Write your message when you order and we will put it inside the card.

Can you send it straight to the person it’s for?

Yes. Give us their address when you order and we will post the card directly to them.

Does it come with an envelope?

There is no separate envelope. The card arrives in the envelope we post it in.

How big is the card?

A6 (10.5 × 14.8 cm), the classic postcard size. It fits standard A6 frames if you want to keep it on the wall.

Why a robot?

So more beautiful things get sent, and end up on fridges, shelves and walls instead of in a drawer. You wouldn’t ask an illustrator to draw every birthday card, so most cards end up printed. A robot can draw card after card in real marker, which makes a real drawing as easy to send as a printed card. It replaces the printer, not the illustrator.

Can I order lots of cards, or a different size?

Yes, just get in touch. Wedding thank-yous, team gifts, a set for the whole family or a bigger drawing for the wall: tell us what you have in mind and we will see what the robot can do.

Do you have a discount for friends?

Yes: give £2, get £2. Every order comes with a code that gives friends £2 (or €2) off their first card, and you get the same off your next card for each friend who orders.

Where do you ship?

Worldwide. A card costs £8 in the UK and €9 everywhere else, and that includes posting it.

How long does shipping take?

Every card is posted from London, so it depends on where it’s going. Cards within the UK arrive fastest; the further away, the longer it can take.

What happens to my photo?

We keep it privately and only use it to make your drawing.
