Frequently asked

What does this cost?+

It's all free during soft launch. Generate an AI birthday card you can print at home, download it, and it's yours. No catch.

How long does it take to generate a card?+

About 2-3 minutes. This AI birthday card generator uses OpenAI's image model, which thinks carefully about composition, colors, and likeness. The wait is worth it - every card is one of a kind, with no template behind it.

How do I print a card at home?+

It works like a printable AI card maker: the AI designs the card, you print it. Download the print-ready PDF - a full 8.5×11 sheet with the art on the right half (any home printer works). Print on cardstock, landscape, at 100% "Actual size", then fold in half with the art facing out. No trimming. The inside stays blank for your handwritten message. Full printing guide →

What if I'm not happy with how my card turned out?+

You can go back and adjust your inputs or try a different style - each generation comes out a little differently.

What kind of emails will you get?+

If you save, download, or email yourself a card, you might occasionally hear what we're building - a few emails, never a flood. One-click unsubscribe on every one, we never sell or share your address, and there are no tracking cookies. Full details are in our Privacy & Terms.

Who's behind this?+

Hi, I'm Gabriel, a data consultant in LA. I kept ending up in the CVS card aisle feeling underwhelmed, right around the time I was learning to code with Claude Code. So I built this - for myself first, then for anyone who wants to make something personal for the people they love. My favorite part is the DIY: download the PDF and print it at home on cardstock. I've made 20+ for friends and family, and they land because they're about the actual person, not a template. It's free during the soft launch. Building it has also sharpened the AI work I do at GLF Analytics. 500+ cards created so far, and counting. I even wrote about building it on Medium.
