Our verdict

MailerLite is the better all-rounder: the most pleasant editor, solid automation, and a low price. Kit is built for a different goal: growing an audience and earning from it directly, with a free plan up to 10,000 subscribers. If you sell products or services, choose MailerLite. If you are a writer, podcaster, or creator, Kit was made for you.

The most pleasant editor we tested and a free plan you can genuinely start a business on. For beginners, this is our first recommendation.Editorial team, on MailerLite
