Can AI write thank-you notes?
Yes, even a stack of them. Give it each person and gift, and it writes short, personal notes that mention the gift and how you'll use it, with no two opening the same way.
01Why bot
- Short, warm notes are easy for AI.
- Varying each note keeps them from feeling copied.
- Your details make them personal.

Ensure each opening line is distinct.
How each run works: we fill the prompt with a made-up sample, run it once in Llama 3.3 70B, and GPT-OSS 120B grades the answer against the prompt's own rules. Word limits are counted by code, and every quote flagged as made up is checked against the full answer. Your results can differ. How we test.
