## Ways to pay less

- **20% saving on annual plans** (Annual discount): The pricing page says annual plans save 20% against monthly billing. Source: https://www.mailmodo.com/pricing/
- **Discounted plans for NGOs and non-profits** (Nonprofit): The pricing page offers discounted plans to NGOs and not-for-profit organizations, subject to terms and conditions. Source: https://www.mailmodo.com/pricing/

## Key features

- **AI email tools:** On every plan: AI template generator, automation builder, segment generator, marketing planner and performance analyzer.
- **Interactive AMP emails:** Polls, star ratings, forms and similar widgets work inside the email. AMP for Email renders in Gmail, Yahoo and a few other clients.
- **Automation journeys:** Multi-step journeys such as onboarding or re-engagement flows. Active journey counts are capped by plan.
- **Campaigns and segments:** Bulk and triggered campaigns by API or webhook, with static and dynamic segments, all included in every plan.
- **Testing and send timing:** A/B testing, send time optimization and time zone based scheduling appear in the Lite, Pro and Max feature lists.

## Good for

- Teams that want interactive emails such as polls and forms inside the inbox
- Marketers who want AI to draft templates and flows
- Companies that also need a transactional email API

## Worth knowing

- Prices shown are for 500 contacts billed annually; the page says annual plans save 20%, but monthly-billing prices were not readable.
- Lite limits you to 1 team member and 1 active journey; the full integration list starts on Pro.
- A comparison table on the pricing page lists $59 at 10,000 contacts without naming a plan, so larger-list prices are unclear.
- AMP for Email works only in some clients; Mailmodo says it uses CSS interactivity to cover Apple Mail.

Plans are priced for 500 contacts and billed annually: Lite is $149 a month and Pro $199. AMP only works in some mail apps, and the page's own table shows $59 at 10,000 contacts without naming the plan.

- **Value for money: D.** $149 a month at 500 contacts on yearly billing is in the dearest tenth of this category, and Lite comes with 1 team member and 1 active journey. A table on the page shows $59 at 10,000 contacts without saying which plan.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** Free sign-up with no card, but the page does not state how long the trial lasts or what its limits are.
- **Features: C.** AI email tools, AMP emails, journeys, campaigns and segments. Lite has 1 active journey and 1 team member, and the full integration list starts on Pro.
- **Ease of use: C.** A web app with no rating on record. Journeys and AMP forms are things you build.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Mailmodo you would be making newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 41 of the 57 other email marketing and newsletter tools grade higher. It costs $1,788 a year.

- You could not: Newsletters sent to thousands of people that still reach the inbox.
- You could not: Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- You could not: Mail servers with a good name among inbox providers.
- You could not: Splitting visitors between versions and telling you which won.
- You could not: It plugs into other products, Zapier, Shopify and Mailchimp among them.
- You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- You could not: Hooks into the device itself: widgets.
