The Problem
Before & After
What life looks like on the old tools, and on mailtani.
Without mailtani
- Monthly email tools add to the overhead before your project has traction
- Per-contact pricing is the opposite of indie economics, costs rise as you grow
- Most email platforms are built for marketers, not indie builders shipping fast
- Shared infrastructure means your deliverability depends on other senders
- Subscription lock-in means you're paying even during the months you're heads-down building
- Transactional emails for your product need a separate paid provider on top of your marketing tool
With mailtani
- Pay once: email is permanently off your monthly cost list
- Your own SES key covers marketing broadcasts, onboarding sequences, and transactional sends
- Sequences, broadcasts, forms, and analytics all in one tool
- No per-contact limits: grow your audience without growing your bill
- Built for solo operators: simple to set up, no bloated enterprise features
- Use SES for transactional sends from your app, same account, no extra vendor fee
