Questions Churches Often Ask

Find answers so you can send with assurance every time.

How does Stylograph create handwriting?
You capture your handwriting once, drawing your letters and numbers on your phone or tablet, and a pen plotter writes every note in that handwriting. Every message is written with a real pen on real paper, never printed in a cursive font.
Can we use scripture or prayers in the notes?
Yes. You can include scripture, blessings, or pastoral messages in each note.
Can we send notes after a donation or campaign?
Absolutely. You can send a note immediately or schedule it for any future date, such as a holiday or a giving anniversary.
Do we need to print the cards ourselves?
No. We handle printing and mailing.
Will people know I didn't write it myself?
They won't. The handwriting is natural, varied, and designed to feel human.
What if we want to approve the messages first?
You can review and edit each note before sending, or use presets you trust.
Is it safe to upload our donor list?
Yes. Stylograph is privacy-first, and your data is encrypted and never shared.
Is my data and handwriting secure?
Your privacy is our priority. Handwriting samples and messages are confidential, never reused without consent, and protected by industry-standard security.
