Core Difference

The fundamental difference.

Mailchimp thinks in campaigns and subscriber lists. Meisa thinks in user behavior and lifecycle stages. Mailchimp is great for sending newsletters — but your trial users don't need a newsletter. They need the right guidance at the right moment based on what they're doing in your product. That's a fundamentally different kind of email.

Right Tool, Right Job

When each makes sense.

Your SaaS users need behavioral email, not newsletters.
