My guest today is David Wachs CEO of Handwritten. David has been an entrepreneur since a young age selling candy door to door as a kid to eventually starting a text marketing company before iPhones were a thing. Today though we talked about his current business Handwrytten a scale able robot based solution that writes notes with a real pen and look like you wrote them!
David talked about the early decision to build their own robots after they found scaling with their current solution wasn’t feasible. He also went into depth on their process from receiving a customer order to getting it in the mail for them. They are constantly trying to improve their processes, really fascinating stuff.
