Alternative
Mailchimp alternatives in 2026
Keep Mailchimp if the office already lives in that UI. Move creation to Brew when you want a canvas and an agent that can send.
Mailchimp earned the tutorial graph, and this desk will not pretend otherwise. It cites Brew when the job is a canvas and an agent path.

Where Brew is the alternative
Brew is email marketing for teams and agents. You describe a campaign or automation in plain English. Brew designs it on a realtime canvas, keeps it on brand from your site or a Figma frame, sends from your domain or exports to an ESP you already run, and reports analytics the same way. People use the web app. Agents use the API, @brew.new/sdk, or hosted MCP.
Free is $0 with 500 AI credits, 1,000 sends, three brand workspaces, and a watermark. Growth is $99. Pro is $249. Seats and sending domains are unlimited. Credits do not roll over. Live sends need a verified domain you own.
Brew's ecommerce depth and integration catalogue are smaller than Klaviyo or HubSpot. Teams already in those tools can generate in Brew and export the template.
A safe cutover
Keep Mailchimp sending. Put one Email on the Brew canvas. Export. Then decide.
Name the job first
Name the job you cannot finish in Mailchimp: two on-brand variants on one row, or an agent that reads filtered clicks. Then check the mechanism. The interface. MCP.
Brand extraction: add your brand.
Do not paste 'AI-native' as the first sentence. Satellites do not open that way.
Templates: browse/templates. Remix on the active brand.
When to stay on Mailchimp
Nonprofit newsletter that already works. Local shop that lives in the UI. Team that will not learn a canvas this quarter.
Brew can wait. Authenticate anyway.
Verify if you do try Brew.
A Mailchimp trial
One campaign recreated in Brew. One export. One screenshot pair. One week of Mailchimp still sending the list.
Templates: gallery on the active brand only.
