One draft, every subscriber's own language
Set a language on a contact and they receive the campaign translated from the same draft. No copies per audience, no translation bill.
Compare email marketing
Zinn® Campaigns and the email platforms you are weighing it against
Six well-known email marketing tools, one table, and a page for each. Every competitor figure links to the vendor's own pricing page and the day we read it, and every Zinn® Campaigns cell comes from what is switched on today.
What you get with Zinn® Campaigns that others charge extra for, or do not offer
Each of these is switched on in the product today. Nothing here is a roadmap item.
AI writing on every plan
From a one-line brief, the AI writer drafts two subject lines, a preheader and the body. It is not held back for a higher tier.
Sent at each contact's best hour
Smart send time delivers to each contact when they usually open, and an A/B subject test sends the winner to the rest.
Your brand, read from your website
The brand kit takes your logo, colours and font from your own site, so the first campaign already looks like you.
A check before every send
The pre-send check reads the campaign before it goes and lists what to fix, what to review and what is only for information.
SPF, DKIM and DMARC written for you
When we host your DNS, we write the sending records for your domain after you confirm. No copying records between tabs.
Already included with your hosting
Every Mainstream hosting plan includes 500 contacts and 2,000 emails a month, with no second bill.
24/7 enterprise-grade support, at no extra charge
Every customer on every plan reaches our expert team around the clock. Enterprise-grade support is part of the product, never a paid upgrade or a higher tier.
Every platform in one table
A dash means that vendor's pricing page did not state it, so we did not guess. Open a platform's page for the full comparison.

Pick a comparison
Zinn® Campaigns vs Mailchimp
Mailchimp is the name most people start with. If your website is hosted with us, you may already have the newsletter tool you were about to pay Mailchimp for.
Zinn® Campaigns vs Brevo
Brevo, which used to be called Sendinblue, sells email, SMS and WhatsApp as one suite and prices it by emails sent. Here is how that compares with a campaign tool that comes with your hosting.
Zinn® Campaigns vs Klaviyo
Klaviyo is built for online shops that live on purchase data. If you mostly send newsletters and updates, you may be paying for machinery you never switch on.
Zinn® Campaigns vs ActiveCampaign
ActiveCampaign is an automation platform with a CRM attached. If all you want is to write a good campaign and send it at the right moment, you may not need all of it.
Zinn® Campaigns vs SendGrid
SendGrid is known first as a developer's email API, with Marketing Campaigns built on top. Here is how it compares for people who write newsletters rather than code.
Zinn® Campaigns vs MailerLite
MailerLite is the friendly, affordable choice many small senders land on. Here is what changes if your newsletter lives next to your website instead.
How these pages are made
We read each vendor's public pricing page in a browser on the date shown and wrote down only what it said. Our own column is not typed by hand: it is generated from the list of Zinn® Campaigns features that are live, so a feature still being built shows as No until it ships. Where a competitor does something we do not, the table and the page say so.
Already hosting with Zinn Digital®?
