kitecourier.com - the end-to-end certified mail platform that makes sending legal notices as easy as sending email.

Revenue is very spiky. Some months ~$10k, some ~$100.

Inspired by this Patrick McKenzie thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7135833

Certified mail is weirdly powerful leverage. I decided to productize that.

Fixed, thanks!

How do you handle the logistics? I presume you aren't printing and mailing everything manually...

Nice! Thanks.

how do you get customers?

[hotdogsalesman]

Just inbound for now. We haven’t really launched yet. Most customers find us on bing.

That's original. How'd you come up with an idea for that?

I had medical debt to dispute, which requires certified mail. Every time the debt was resold I had to print, sign, stuff an envelope, and go to the post office again.

I built it so people could push back without the logistics.

Then I realized that nobody wants to deal with mailing at all and certified mail is used for way more than debt disputes, so I expanded it into a general legal-notice service.
