History

Paperless Post was founded by sibling entrepreneurs James and Alexa Hirschfeld in 2008 when they were 23 and 25 years old. It began as an online-only company and launched printed stationery in 2012. The company partners with designers like Kate Spade New York to produce original work.

In November 2011, e-card competitor Evite created a copycat product that copied many of Paperless Post's designs nearly pixel for pixel. Industry backlash caused Evite to withdraw their new product from the market for over a year.

Paperless Post partnered with leading stationery company Crane & Co. to produce the first collection of hybrid online-offline wedding suites. These designs are available online as well as on fine cotton paper with engraving and letterpress.

The company has raised $12.4 million in capital to date.
