Targeted Direct Mail Lists & Automated In-Market Lead Feeds
Stop buying stale, overpriced census lists with $500 minimums. Thanks.io Lead Feeds automatically deposits local consumers, homeowners, or B2B businesses actively researching your exact keywords online (within the last 72 hours) straight into your mailing list for just $0.10 per lead—and mails them a personalized postcard, handwritten letter, or gift card the very next day.
- Pick 1–5 Search Interests + Intent Window: Target High Intent (~3 days), Medium (2–4 weeks), or Low (6–12 months) across any City, State, or ZIP.
- Demographic & Wealth Filters: Filter by Confirmed Homeowner, High Net Worth ($1M+), Age, Marital Status, and Children at Home.
- Enriched With Email & Phone Included: Every $0.10 record includes Full Name + Verified Mailing Address, plus Email & Phone on most leads at zero extra cost.
- Daily, Weekly, or One-Time Pulls: Auto-deduplicated so you are never charged twice for an existing contact. Preview counts free before buying.
How Automated Direct Mail Lead Feeds Work
Instead of downloading static CSVs from legacy list brokers and manually uploading them to a print house, Thanks.io connects live buyer search signals directly to automated postcards, handwritten letters, and CRM webhooks.
Pick Audience & Cadence
Open Lead Feeds in the left sidebar and choose Consumers (B2C) or Businesses (B2B). Set your schedule to Daily, Weekly, or a One-Time pull (up to 100 net-new leads per run).
Select Keywords & Intent Window
Enter 1 to 5 search interests (e.g., Pest Control, Cockroach Control, Mosquito Help) and set your Intent Strength: High (~3 days), Medium (2–4 weeks), or Low (6–12 months).
Filter Demographics & Preview Free
Narrow by City, State, or ZIP plus Confirmed Homeowner, High Net Worth ($1M+), Age, Gender, Marital Status, and Children. Click Preview to see exact counts before spending a dime.
Auto-Trigger Mail, AI Voice & Ads
Attach a Days After Added campaign (Day 1, Day 14, Day 30). Every time new leads drop in, Thanks.io mails your AI-designed postcard or letter and pushes enriched emails & phones to your CRM or Meta Ads.
Dial In Your Intent Strength: 72 Hours to 12 Months
Most mailing list brokers sell static census snapshots compiled 6 months ago. With Thanks.io Lead Feeds, you choose the exact balance between recency (people actively shopping today) and volume (everyone in your market who has researched your category).
High Intent
Freshest · Highest ConversionCaptures households and businesses actively researching your exact keywords online within the past ~3 days. Because they are in the middle of comparing quotes right now, a postcard or handwritten letter arriving days later hits at the exact moment of decision.
Medium Intent
Balanced Scale & TimingIdentifies prospects who have demonstrated sustained research activity across multiple sessions over the past 14 to 30 days. Ideal for considered purchases with a 30-to-90-day buying cycle.
Low Intent
Maximum Territory ReachAggregates everyone in your target geography who has researched your category over the past 6 to 12 months, combined with strict demographic filters (e.g., Confirmed Homeowner + $1M+ Net Worth).

Every record is verified for USPS direct mail delivery AND enriched with digital contact data on most records at zero extra cost:
