How to Cheer Someone Up with a Custom AI Card

Whether it’s a bad breakup or just a case of the Mondays, a funny, thoughtful AI card can turn their day around.

Cheer Them Up — Without the “Hang in There” Cat Poster

How to send something thoughtful, hilarious, and perfectly them — in minutes

We all have that moment: someone we care about is going through it, and we want to help — but we’re not sure how. Texts feel too small. A gift feels like too much. And a store-bought sympathy card? Oof. Definitely not it.

That’s where a custom AI-generated card comes in — funny, personal, and so spot-on they’ll wonder how you pulled it off so fast. With HiWithAi, you choose the video style, personalize the message, pick the background, and make your loved one the star of the story. All you need is one photo.


🎭 Step 1: Pick a Mood, Not a Template

Forget generic florals and “thinking of you” text blocks. With HiWithAi, you start by choosing the kind of vibe you want: warm? silly? chaos gremlin energy? Then pick a scene or animation template that sets the tone.

Examples:

  • “Soft fantasy forest with beams of magical light”
  • “Two best friends inside a vintage bakery with floating croissants”
  • “Retro diner where dogs wear sunglasses”

You’re cheering them up already — just by making it this fun.


📸 Step 2: Upload One Photo

All you need is one photo of them. That’s it. Our AI transforms it into a personalized, animated video card where they’re the main character — no posing, no retakes, no studio lighting required.

Suddenly, they’re the star of their own happy little fantasy. Or joke. Or inside reference. And it’s all thanks to you.


💬 Step 3: Add a Message That Feels Like You

This isn’t the time for “Wishing you well in this difficult season.” This is the time for:

“I can’t fight your boss but I *can* send you a card where you’re riding a corgi across a rainbow. Love you.”

Your words don’t have to be profound. They just have to be *you*. Thoughtful, weird, honest — that’s the good stuff.


📬 Step 4: Hit Send — and Watch the Smiles Roll In

You can send your card instantly, or schedule it for later. Either way, it lands like a warm hug, minus the awkward lingering or damp shoulder.

Want to keep it private? Go digital. Want to print a still from the animation? Totally doable. Want to send it to the family group chat? Even better.


💡 Bonus: Card Ideas for Every Kind of Rough Day

  • Bad breakup? “You deserve better. Like… a castle. With snacks.”
  • Post-surgery? “We can rebuild you. We have the technology (and snacks).”
  • Monday meltdowns? “I hereby declare this week canceled. Report to the blanket fort.”

Whatever the occasion — or non-occasion — a custom AI video card gives them a moment of joy they didn’t expect. And probably really needed.


TL;DR

You can’t fix everything. But you can show up with something small and magical that proves you care.

One photo. One message. One unexpected smile.
That’s the power of a custom AI card.
