Nishi Compare / Sending and Mail

Nishi Sending and Mail vs the field

Physical + digital in one place -- mechanically measured by reading real organ source, not analyst opinion. Send a postcard, letter, card, or gift as easily as an email.
Coverage 514 / 1000
Capability PRESENCE across 35 axes of the sending surface -- 2 sovereign edge, 16 present, 17 on the roadmap. Presence, not depth-parity: the incumbents lead on breadth + hands-off logistics; Nishi leads on sovereignty (runs on your hardware, no data leaves for a SaaS to send).

The sovereign edge (the 2 EXCEEDS): anti-spoof SPF/DKIM/DMARC on integer-deterministic ed25519 crypto (no openssl/opendkim), and an own print pipeline that composes a raster and drives a real printer over URF/IPP with no cloud print service. The roadmap is the whole physical + gifts + unified-send surface: postcard/letter/card composition to a print-ready piece, a structured postal address book, a unified send-intent that lets one recipient get an email OR a postcard OR a gift from one surface, and modern compose UX. Competitor rows reflect public product docs + USPS standards (2025-26); Nishi rows are live symbol reads of on-disk source. Generated by nx_swcompare_sending, liar-killed both directions.
