US Patent 9,609,973 Expecting an important letter, a check, or an invitation to the ball but don’t have time to check the mailbox? There’s an app for that. Postal Notice, an automated system that works with and extremely complements existing innovations of the U.S. Postal Service, may be the answer.
Subscribers to Postal Notice can receive an email, text, or recorded phone call when a letter carrier has arrived at the subscriber’s mailbox. The whole process is invisible to the letter carrier, so there is no cost or increased labor on the Post Office end of things. In fact, the use of Postal Notice has the potential to generate hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue boosting job security for postal workers.
Every letter carrier is equipped with a global positioning system device that registers each of the more than 155 million mail delivery points in the United States. When the carrier arrives at a subscriber’s mailbox, a message is immediately sent with notification of the delivery. The use of social media as a notification tool brings the USPS further into the 21st century.
