Seems very similar to a project a friend of mine did (Also based on Lob's API): https://www.snailr.co/

His prices are a bit cheaper $2 + $0.15 for each page but with fewer options it appears.

What are the differences between this and Lob (https://lob.com)?

Hi, Lob employee here! Mailform actually uses Lob.

Lob's focus is on building printing and mailing infrastructure accessible through our API. Mailform is creating an easy to use interface (via Lob) for customers to print their documents.

Hey Fabio- we are built on top of lob. They've been great to work with, and are very supportive of Developers like us.

Mailform is focused on consumers and businesses who want an easy way to print and mail (for sending tax documents, invoices, estimates, brochures etc). Email us at [email protected] with questions.

Can you poly-select on a map to get addresses? Or do I need my own pre-compiled list?

We used to have a Google auto-complete widget, but it appeared to confuse things: right now you have to bring an address list with you. We take in CSV/XLS/XLSX in generic formats, and exports from QuickBooks. We're also working on direct imports from a number of other programs: is there a specific address source you have? Would love to understand your use case.

We are required to notify (by mail) residents within a specified distance of a map feature. directmail.com uses a geoselection tool that, while suffering from last year's UI, is fairly full-featured:

letterbug.co.uk is somewhat of the UK equivalent.
