As another round of recruitment opens, talents are checking out [the updated job board](https://giftpack.notion.site/Giftpack-Job-Board-a0f14571388748ae8a293d2c4ab87a62) and actively applying for positions at Giftpack. [Andrea Lee](https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrealeejq/) has become the first accepted intern in the Giftern program as a Business Analyst.

Andrea was born in Malaysia and is now a junior year student at Colby College, Waterville, Maine, majoring in economics. She is a friend of [Erica, our operation intern](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/erica-lee-joins-giftpack-as-an-operation-giftern) in the 2022 Giftern program. They not only share similar values when it comes to professional life, which brought the two to Giftpack, but a diverse cultural background. Andrea speaks quite a few languages, including Malay, English, Chinese, Cantonese, Japanese, and a little bit of Korean.

She previously interned at GetGo Carsharing as a Business Operation Analyst. With her previous job duties involved global expansion, she grew interest in global-operating services. She also enjoyed fully remote working. All these work qualities she saw at Giftpack, and ended up applying for an internship, securing an offer as a Business Analyst.

In a casual onboarding chat, Andrea mentioned that her goal for interning at Giftpack is to develop interpersonal skills such as communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. She is also hoping to gain a better understanding of work culture and expectations in the software field and the gifting industry.

The team asked Andrea what she’s looking forward to working at Giftpack. Andrea replied, “I am excited about the opportunities that Giftpack offers to learn from experienced professionals, gain exposure to new technologies and different platforms, and work on challenging projects that can help me develop new skills.”

The Giftpack team is thrilled to have Andrea on the team. We’re all excited to see how Andrea will grow together with Giftpack and what we will achieve together.

Giftpack’s First Giftern in 2023 — Introducing Andrea Lee

![giftpack website migration](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/featured_image_7b786b4cbb.png)

We have made an important decision to merge Giftpack.io into Giftpack.ai, migrating the websites! The process is carried out throughout Q2, 2023 and estimated to be completed in End of June, 2023.

This article will go into detail about the migration process and what is going to happen for our clients, vendors, and packers after the migration. 

## What is Giftpack.io?

![giftpack io logo pink background and white words](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/giftpack_io_logo_pink_background_and_white_words_0a532e6ea5.jpg)

Giftpack.io is a luxury gift delivery service operating globally that provides same-day delivery to multiple cities. It is created to foster warmth and closeness in long-distance relationships. 

<YTVideo id="dPev7JpDYpo" />

On the Giftpack.io platform, you can select and customize any gift to send to your loved ones who are currently located in different cities. Additionally, you can personalize the gift experience, such as requesting Giftpackers to sing a song or bring a birthday cake. This is the part where you can get creative!

### Story of Giftpack.io

"Maintaining a long-distance relationship showed us the challenges of staying connected beyond our usual communication patterns. Overcoming the obstacles of time zone differences and physical distance was not an easy feat," shared Archer Chiang, Founder and CEO of Giftpack.

Giftpack.io was founded for personal motivation. Archer recognized the difficulties of maintaining long-distance relationships, particularly romantic ones, and wanted to create a platform that allows people in similar situations to express their affection to loved ones who are far away.

In February 2016, Archer assembled a team to address the challenges that long-distance couples face on a daily basis. We launched the first cross-regional gifting service, prototype of Giftpack.io, delivering Starbucks coffee to friends and family in San Francisco and Taiwan. 

The business quickly became a platform that assisted people in any types of long-distance relationships, such as families, students studying abroad, people working abroad, and international business partners. At the time, our top priority was to provide tangible gifts that were personalized, regionalized, and delivered within 3 hours. 

Later in 2017, we officially launched Giftpack.io, a platform that makes sending [personalized gifts](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/best-personalized-gifts-for-important-people-in-your-life?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=giftpack-websites-merges) to every city just 3 hours away. In just a few clicks on our App or Website, you can order a gift that is carefully curated by some of the best product and service providers in the respective region of your loved one; and your gift will be delivered in 3 hours by one of our well-trained packers. 

Fast forward 5 years. In 2023, despite facing the challenges brought by the COVID19 pandemic, Giftpack.io remains one of the most preferred platforms for sending personalized gifts to loved ones living in different places.

### Giftpack.io vs Giftpack.ai

![difference between giftpack io and giftpack ai](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/difference_between_giftpack_io_and_giftpack_ai_9ee30a49e8.jpg)

Giftpack.io was created with the goal of making gift-giving simple and accessible to everyone, particularly those in long-distance relationships or with loved ones living abroad. The platform provided a variety of personalized gift options and delivered them within 3 hours, making it a popular choice for people looking to surprise and thank their loved ones.

Giftpack.ai, on the other hand, was created to address corporate gifting challenges. The platform seeks to give organizations an all-in-one solution to automate and streamline their processes when it comes to corporate gifts. Giftpack.ai's capabilities include bulk gifting, personalization choices, and data analysis tools, all intended to make business gifting productive and efficient. Businesses can save time and money by utilizing such [corporate gifting platforms](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/top-corporate-gifting-platforms?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=giftpack-websites-merges) to uphold solid relationships with customers and staff.

In conclusion, while both Giftpack.io and Giftpack.ai are dedicated to personalized gifting, Giftpack.ai is specifically designed to meet the needs of businesses looking to streamline their corporate gifting process.

## The website migration

![Computer with 3d programming pop out with man in the background](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/Computer_with_3d_programming_pop_out_with_man_in_the_background_76e7883bae.jpg)

The [website migration](https://moz.com/blog/website-migration-guide#:~:text=A%20site%20migration%20is%20a,content%2C%20design%2C%20or%20UX.) is simply having our old web pages redirect to new pages. We will explain in more detail what will be different after the migration in the later paragraphs.

The topic of website migration was brought up within the organization near the end of 2022. The team members who participated in the discussion noticed that the existing web pages were not providing the desired user experience and that the website needed a major overhaul. As a result, extensive research was conducted to evaluate the options for website migration, which lasted another 2 months.

### Why the migration?

Various aspects, such as the costs involved, the expected timelines, the impact on existing users, and search engine optimization, were thoroughly examined during this time. The team also investigated the various technical approaches that could be used for the migration and weighed the benefits and drawbacks of each option.

After carefully weighing all the pros and cons and holding numerous conversations, it was decided to consolidate the current web pages. The team believed that this strategy would improve user experience while also making website management easier. The team then started the transfer process and worked incredibly hard to guarantee a seamless transition with as little impact as possible on the website's current users.

<hr />

## What is going to be different after the migration?

![question mark with two different colored arrows symboling not knowing what will happen in the future](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/question_mark_with_two_different_colored_arrows_symboling_not_knowing_what_will_happen_in_the_future_11aa4fd172.jpg)

After the website migration, there will definitely be a few things changed. Below we listed out how it would be different for by different groups of people:

### For our clients

With just minor modifications to your user experience, the switch to our new site and marketplace will provide a broader variety of shopping possibilities. Your initial login information will continue to work without any problems to provide you access.

As our valued clients, we will ensure the following accommodations are provided:

- Transfer of any remaining gift credits with further compensation from Giftpack.ai
- Preservation of all your gifting history, and you will always have access to all pertinent media
- Grace period of 3.5 months to back up any required information.

### For our vendors

All procedures will function normally throughout the migration. You won't notice any difference. For instance, the transaction and process of your operations will be the same if a customer orders your product. Just carry it out as you normally would. You should keep an eye out for an email from Giftpack to discuss upcoming adjustments.

As our trusted vendors, we will make every effort to help you with the transition. Below are important things for you to keep in mind:

- We will reach out to you and renegotiate the partnership contract to migrate your product to the marketplace of [Giftpack.ai](https://giftpack.ai/?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=giftpack-websites-merges).
- We will clear out any history order data on **June, 30th 2023**.
- We will give you a grace period of 3.5 months to back up anything you might need.

### For our Giftpackers

Regrettably, your services won't be required any more. Following the changeover, our logistics partners will handle delivery services. But our CEO, Archer, and the rest of the staff are very appreciative of what you did for us. Giftpack.io won't even be possible without you. There are no words that can express how grateful we are. We wish you all the best and we hope your future initiatives go well for you.

As our most appreciated Giftpackers, we will make sure the below things happen within the process of migration:

- We will issue the termination of the contract in May 2023, everything will follow the agreement we signed
- We will clear out any history order data on **June, 30th 2023**.
- We will give you a grace period of 3.5 months to back up anything you might need.

<hr />

## Conclusion

Giftpack.io is among the most heartfelt services I have ever experienced(created), in my opinion. Archer expressed. As the founder of four startups, Archer emphasized that he invested a lot of effort into running each one. But only Giftpack.io had he invested more emotion than others for personal reasons.

There are countless cross-regional stories on Giftpack.io that link family members all across the world. photos, videos, and emotional moments. It is undoubtedly a product that appeals to people's hearts and fosters intimate relationships.

This migration will **NOT mean the end of Giftpack.io, but rather a rebirth**, with the goal of better serving and connecting people.

This robust growth is a testament to the enduring importance and value of corporate gifting in today's business landscape.

![Corporate Gifting Market Size 2017-2024](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/Corporate_Gifting_Market_Size_2017_2024_e905371f2c.jpg)

The supply chain is responsible for getting a product to market, and deciding which products will be offered plays an integral part in that process. To ensure the gift reaches its intended recipient, you must consider getting it there without damaging it.

People must receive a thoughtful birthday gift on or before their special day, not several days or weeks later. Thanks to the vast developments in Artificial Intelligence technology, we can now have gifts delivered on time for our loved ones.

How does AI work to help us give our loved ones the perfect gift? What is the future of AI in our lives? As technology advances, we can use it to make our everyday lives easier. In this article, we’ll explore how Artificial Intelligence is being used today and what it can do to help you give a gift that’s perfect for your loved ones.

<hr />

## AI Tools Help Curate the Perfect Gifts

When it comes to gifts, it’s the thought that counts. With the number of products available to them online and in-store, it can be challenging for brands to stand out from their competitors. This scenario is where AI comes into play. It can help them curate the perfect gifts for customers through their data by personalizing recommendations based on previous purchases, browsing history, and more.

Brands can use this technology to create a personalized shopping experience for every customer, based on their preferences, interests, and budget. AI-powered gift recommendations help brands deliver high-quality content relevant to the audience and support the brand in standing out in the highly competitive market. In today’s digital age, consumers have more options than ever before.

The perfect gift doesn’t just come from a list of available items or the latest in trend. It’s a carefully curated selection that speaks to a person’s personality, interests, and lifestyle. And it takes time and effort to create one. 

That’s why gift-giving can be so stressful! With AI tools, brands can use data to select the perfect gifts for their customers. People today are well-informed and have more sophisticated tastes, making it more difficult to satisfy them when receiving gifts. However, brands only know what their customers wish if they ask them directly or do market research.

<hr />

## Customers Expect a Personal Touch

The perfect gift is personalized and reflects the recipient’s interests. This is why AI can be such a huge advantage for brands regarding gift-giving. By using data, brands can predict what customers want and give them what they need—not just what they want.

In the US, consumers expect brands to be able to provide a personal touch. People want businesses to give them what they want and not just what they need. This means that brands need a way to deliver the [best personalized gifts](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/best-personalized-gifts-for-important-people-in-your-life) so that customers can feel they were thought about individually.

Customers now expect personalization, which means that brands must use AI to create more personalized offerings. This means that brands need a way to curate gifts for their customers and make it easy for them to select something they want.

Gift-giving has become increasingly impersonal over the years. People would instead give gift cards than something unique and personal because it’s easier and less risky.

Brands cannot rely on their marketing efforts alone to drive sales. They need to develop relationships with their customers so that they can curate gifts for them based on their preferences.

Most consumers want their gifts to be personalized. This is not surprising, given that gift-giving is a personal activity and most people would prefer something tailored just for them.

The problem with personalization is that it is hard work! It’s similar to the convenience [the top small business accounting software](https://financesonline.com/top-5-accounting-software-small-business-2017/) offers when it comes to keeping your books clean and orderly.

<hr />

## Providing meaningful customer service options

AI gift finder technology involves a lot of AI but also requires a human touch. A study already revealed that [45% of millennials prefer AI-powered systems](https://www.criteo.com/blog/ai-gift-giving/) to conventional systems of picking gifts. This is because customers want the gift finder to use their data to make personalized recommendations and not just spam them with products that are popular in their area or based on past purchases.

To provide these personalization options, brands need to invest in technology that can handle large amounts of data efficiently. This technology involves a combination of data science and machine learning techniques.

The first step is to collect as much information about the customer as possible. This information includes their preferences, interests, and other demographic data such as age, gender, location, and income level. 

You can use various customer touchpoints such as email, live chat, etc. as data sources. It is best if you use efficient customer-focused technologies like live chat software to help you obtain reliable data. Stride and LiveAgent are tested live chat tools for gathering customer information. Freshdesk and other [Stride alternatives](https://financesonline.com/top-10-alternatives-stride-analysis-live-chat-software-solutions/) are also reliable platforms for this.

Next, the data scientists need to analyze all this information using algorithms that can determine what makes each customer unique (e.g., how often they buy gifts for others). Based on this analysis, gift-giving AI technology can provide customers personalized recommendations based on their preferences.

This software analyzes customers’ purchase histories, browsing habits, and other data to create a profile of their preferences. This information is used to recommend products they might like based on the patterns identified in their data profiles.

For example, if a customer buys a lot of books about healthy living, then an AI gift finder might suggest that they get some new [workout gear for Christmas](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/best-corporate-fitness-gifts-for-employees-and-clients). AI helps brands find what their customers want. The technology uses the customer’s preferences and data about their purchasing history to provide suggestions for gifts that are likely to be appreciated.

This method is more efficient than asking people directly what they want in a gift or doing market research because it doesn’t require any additional effort from the consumer or brand. It provides customers with various personalized options and lets them choose the one that’s right for them.

This approach is more personal than simply creating an algorithm and pushing it out to the masses because it takes into account individual preferences and makes each gift unique based on those factors.

<hr />

## AI-powered gift-giving Use Cases

A [study](https://www.giftnow.com/assets/files/Unboxed-The-258-Billion-US-Corporate-Gifting-Opportunity-Jun-9-2022.pdf) estimates that the US corporate gift-giving market will grow from $258 billion in 2022 to $312 billion in 2025. The gift-giving season is upon us, and if you’re like most people, you’ll have to choose between buying something that your friend or family member will love or something that they need. While the former can be challenging to gauge, AI has helped brands curate the best gifts for their consumers.

[Top corporate giving platforms](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/top-corporate-gifting-platforms) like Giftpack AI, Amazon, Token, Alyce, and UncommonGoods use AI to develop gift suggestions. For instance, Giftpack’s “AI Gifting Platform” is a robust gifting solution that picks the perfect present every time and delivers it to your recipient in record time. It allows you to buy gifts for everyone on your list with the click of a button, and it’s free to use.

Giftpack is an AI-powered gift recommendation engine that helps you find the perfect present for everyone on your list. It uses gift-giving algorithms to predict what your client will love, based on their data and reviews from other customers. It then helps you find the perfect gift in just a few clicks.

Amazon launched a feature called ‘Today’s Deals’ in January 2019 which uses machine learning algorithms to predict what shoppers are looking for at any given time of the year. This feature allows them to recommend products based on trending categories such as seasonal discounts or bestsellers from brands like Apple and Bose.

<hr />

## Leverage AI to help find that perfect gift

![woman carrying a gift box leaving a store](https://cms.giftpack.ai/uploads/woman_carrying_a_gift_box_leaving_a_store_b6c546c7cc.jpg)

There is a lot that businesses can do with AI tools to improve customer service, cut costs, and create an overall more enjoyable shopping experience. Learning how your customers react to specific gifts and understanding their preferences, interests, and buying behaviors is the best way to incorporate AI into your business.

The perfect gift doesn’t just come from a list of available items or the latest in trend. It’s a carefully curated selection that speaks to a person’s personality, interests, and lifestyle. And it takes time and effort to create one. That’s why gift-giving can be so stressful! With AI tools, brands can use data to choose the perfect gifts for their customers.

## What Can You Do With Giftpack?

Before we will go over what is different about Giftpack and what Giftpack can help you with when it comes to corporate gifting.

### Global Delivery

For corporate gifting, you can say that delivery is the single most important thing. After all, your gifts must be delivered. 

With the current [remote working](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/giftpack-hr-the-culture-and-framework-of-remote-working) trend, more and more businesses started to send gifts to their employees or clients overseas to strengthen relationships. In addition to bigger corporations that are already sending gifts globally, being able to send gifts to different countries around the world has become quite essential.

With Giftpack, you don’t have to worry about gifts not being able to be delivered. You will be able to send gifts to any corner in the world!

 

### Save Time Spent on Gift Picking

Do you know that gift picking takes quite a lot of time? Even more so when you are trying to personalize the gift. On average, you need 3.5 hours to find a gift that is relevant or appropriate for your recipient. Not to mention the time you will need to spend to know more about this person. 

Imagine trying to find personalized gifts for 100 people or more. That’s a lot of time! With the AI gift recommendation algorithm, Giftpack will be picking the gifts for you. With the experience in corporate gifting and the data we collected, we’ve come up with ways to simplify the whole gifting process regardless whether you are sending gifts to your employees, your clients, or your prospects.

 

### API with Numerous Softwares 

As technology continues to evolve, businesses must keep up to create convenience for their customers. One of the most noticeable things is APIs between softwares. APIs allow users of one software to use the features of another without having to relearn everything. 

With Giftpack AI, you will be able to set up APIs for [Slack](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/making-corporate-gifting-simpler-with-slack), HubSpot, and Zapier. We are also working on integrating with more awesome softwares out there. Our mission is to make gifting easy for anyone!

 

### Recipient Relationship Management (RRM)

Customer relationship management is the key component of a successful business. 

When you send gifts to anyone with a business connection, you’d like to know how it went. With Giftpack AI, you will be able to utilize the recipient management system to manage gift recipients easier. 

Not only can you create groups for your recipient, you can also allow your administrators to have a clear overview of how the whole gifting process went. This will help you create gifting campaigns and drive greater returns in the future.

 

### Swag Gifts

Everyone is doing [swag gifting](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/corporate-swag-gifts-campaign-preparation) as gifts to their employees or clients. Putting company logos on a generic swag gift box won’t highlight any specialty of the gift. It is usually very difficult to make recipients feel great about a normal swag box, but we have the solution. 

With Giftpack AI, you can say goodbye to mundane gift boxes and impress your recipients with unique gift box designs. In addition, we can help you customize the gifts inside your swag box, this will make your recipients feel they are being valued.

Check 3 different types of [swag gift boxes](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/customized-swag-gift-boxese-from-giftpack) that Giftpack offers.

Many businesses nowadays look for data privacy and security first before starting the conversation. With more than 70% of our existing clients based in U.S.A, and 15% in EU, Giftpack AI puts the issue at our priority. We are excited to announce that we comply with GDPR and SoC2 regulations.

In case your company requires a security report to start doing business, we organize this article for you to follow step-by-step what you need to prepare, and how the process will look like for your application of a security report.

## A Few Questions to Get You Started
The list below are the questions you’ll go through while filling out a request your security assessment reports, be it GDPR, Data Process Agreement, SoC2 Type1, or SoC2 Type2.

We’ll need your…
1. Full Name
2. Email Address
3. Job Title
4. Company Legal Name (for NDA purpose)
5. The country your company is registered in

After answering the above question you’ll have to choose one of the security assessment reports we have:
- GDPR
- Data Process Agreement
- SoC2 Type1 or
- SoC2 Type2

Lastly, you’ll be asked for your purpose of the request.

## After Your Submission of Request…
There are a few more steps you can expect after your submission.

Once you have submitted the request form, our team will draft and sign the NDA (Non Disclosure Agreement). The NDA will be sent back to you via the email address you provided earlier. And you will need to sign the document and send back it to us.

When this step is completed, the security report you asked for will be generated by [our partner security company — Vanta](https://blog.giftpack.ai/article/giftpack-updates-2021-q4). Lastly, we will send the generated report to you.

## Let's Get Started!
That’s it! The above is the complete step-by-step process that you will go through to get a security report from Giftpack AI.

Security and Data Privacy Upgrade: Giftpack Complies with GDPR and SoC2

![fabio-oyXis2kALVg-unsplash.jpeg](https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1523961131990-5ea7c61b2107?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&ixid=MnwxMjA3fDB8MHxwaG90by1wYWdlfHx8fGVufDB8fHx8&auto=format&fit=crop&w=2048&q=80)

## Giftpack Accomplishes SoC 2 Certificate with Vanta

Since Giftpack AI was [launched in summer 2020](https://giftpack.ai/about), one of the major concerns holding our team back from getting more client has been data privacy and security. We totally understand the concern considering that we are an artificial intelligence company, and the technology is still relatively new for many of the people.

In order to make sure we provide high standards in data privacy and security, we have been preparing for an application of the SOC 2 certificate. In plain English, a **SOC2 audit ensures that the company stores customer’s data in a well-designed and secure place**.

**In 2021 Q4, Giftpack AI has successfully gained the SOC 2 Type 1 certificate** with security company [Vanta](https://www.vanta.com/). To provide a more thoroughly secured service, we are aiming at getting SOC2 Type 2 certificate within the next 6 months in 2022, as the Type 2 certificate requires a 6-month monitoring evaluation process.

It is expected that before the end of 2022 Q2, **Giftpack AI will have compliance with all SOC 2 Type 1 & Type 2, and GDPR regulations**.

 

## Product Update: A More Complete User Experience

### Introducing Marketplace Redeemer

![A Screenshot of the Marketplace Redeemer](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/5268/1*VwC6Qez4lLHmDcqb2pWUng.png)

Acknowledging flaws in the product is the first step toward better improvements. At the early stage of the AI model, it is impossible for it to generate 100% accurate gift recommendations. With some feedback from the customers, the engineering team has come up with a solution to the problem.

At this moment, your gift recipients can have **3.2 million kinds of product to choose from **if they are not satisfied with their personalized top 5 options generated by AI. They can simply go onto the platform and select from all the gifts they see, as we adjust the frontend options based on each of recipients’ available budget.

 

### More Customizations Are Available for Customized Campaign Design

![Users can now customize more information](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/5712/1*w3-3O4Htn_RrR7OKpwlikg.png)

Despite we are firm believers of personalized gifts, we know some clients may still want a way to show their company logos somewhere in the gifting process. We understand how important it is to nurture your brand awareness and employee loyalty.

![Multi-language customization is available if your recipients are using different languages](https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2980/1*Cm4o7QaED6rXWiG2M2LJTA.png)

Responding to user requests, you are now able to customize your gifting campaign with a lot more options. You can enter your preferred **Sender Domain, Sender Name, Quiz Selections, Message editors, Multi-language Support **and more!

 

### An Upgrade on Platform Operation

AI technology is the core of Giftpack AI. We want to build a gifting engine everyone can access. By analyzing more individual preferences from gift recipients, you are all a part of the fur of gifting. Our product team is thrilled to announce that AI-generated personal tags of every recipient profile is available! You can expect to see a even more accurate result after adding personal tags for your recipients.

Apart from the AI product, we also want to make sure the campaign manager can guide through the platform with ease. We introduced Support PIN security to provide a better customer support. Whenever you encounter a problem on the platform, easily use that code and we will be there for you to provide a better customer service experience.

Lastly, as we mentioned in the [social impact page](https://giftpack.ai/impact), we send warmth not only to business people, but to those in need. **116+ NGOs are added to our donation network**. Your gift recipients can now directly donate the budget they have to their appointed charity.

 

## Celebrate the Lunar New Year Together

From 2020 to 2021, the number of team member at Giftpack AI dropped to 11 from around 30 teammates. The decision to downsize the team was made after thorough inspections and considerations.

Currently, we have more than half of the team members based in Asia, and most of us are from Taiwan, South Korea, and China. As we summarize the achievements and major updates of the last quarter in February 2022, we also took the opportunity of this special time of the year to celebrate the Lunar New Year together.

No matter where we are around the world, our team gathered together virtually on Zoom and shared how we spent the holiday. On behalf of the whole Giftpack AI team, we wish you a Happy New Year and great year to come!
