No. 01 · The price shock
“We crossed 10,000 contacts on a Tuesday and by Friday our monthly bill had gone from $75 to $299. Nothing about our business changed overnight. Their pricing just did.”
The AlternativeSince 2023
Built for the people leaving Mailchimp.
Flat pricing that won't triple on you at 10,000 contacts. An API your engineers can actually use. Deliverability numbers you can show to the CFO. Switch in an afternoon.

Four stories you’ve lived before
These are the four reasons people leave Mailchimp.
We asked 200 customers who switched why they did. The answers were the same four stories, again and again.
No. 02 · The API that lied
“We wanted to send transactional receipts triggered by our app. Their "API" turned out to be a webhook into their flow builder. We spent three sprints building around a drag-and-drop editor.”
No. 03 · The deliverability drift
“Our open rate dropped from 38% to 19% in six months. Support kept telling us it was "industry trends." We moved off and our open rate went right back up the next campaign. That was the whole problem.”
No. 04 · The template prison
“I’m a designer. I know HTML. I just wanted to hand my engineer a React component. Instead I spent afternoons clicking around a WYSIWYG that shipped broken markup to Outlook.”
