The problem it solves

Sending a batch of emails where each person needs their own specific attachment, like a certificate or invoice, means manually matching files to names one at a time. It's slow and it's easy to send the wrong file to the wrong person.

Who it fits

Anyone sending bulk emails that each need a unique, personalized attachment, like certificates, invoices, or reports.

How it works

  1. You start with a spreadsheet listing each recipient's email and their matching file name
  2. The system goes through the list one row at a time
  3. It finds the correct file for each recipient
  4. A personalized email with that attachment is sent to each person

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
