Overview

Formerly Sendinblue, Brevo gives content marketers a unified platform for email campaigns, SMS, WhatsApp, and a built-in CRM — without the per-contact pricing that inflates costs on Mailchimp or ActiveCampaign. AI-driven send-time optimization and subject line scoring are baked into the campaign builder rather than sold as add-ons. The free tier sends up to 300 emails per day, making it a low-risk starting point for newsletter builders.
