Brevo alternative
MailerLite: The Brevo (SendInBlue) alternative for growing businessesYou don't have a marketing team. You are the marketing team. MailerLite is purpose-built for solopreneurs and small businesses: powerful email marketing, digital product sales, and appointment booking. All in one place, at one predictable price. No bloat. No surprises.
Here's why 19,234+ people already switched to MailerLite
When Brevo (SendInBlue) restructured its pricing in late 2025, moving landing pages off Starter and adding contact caps, many users went looking for a platform that grows with them, and not against.
MailerLite is built to help solopreneurs and small teams grow their audience, sell their products, book their clients, and automate the rest. All this, without the complexity, the bloat, or the price changes every month.
Stable pricing
One flat monthly fee based on your subscriber count. Unlimited emails included. No volume spikes, no surprise bills.
Built to help small businesses earn
MailerLite stays focused on what solopreneurs and small businesses actually use: email that grows and monetizes their audience.
Lets you to send more emails
Brevo's pricing model charges by email volume. That means the more you nurture and engage with your subscribers, the more you pay. MailerLite's model helps you send as many emails as you want, for one flat fee.
High deliverability
Our high deliverability rates give customers peace of mind that more of their emails end up in the inbox where they belong.
SendinBlue [Brevo] was OK until we sent our first campaign. Suddenly we had a complete lack of engagement related to deliverability issues. MailerLite is really intuitive. We have grown tremendously over the years, and our email campaigns have played an important part.
Everything a solo business needs to grow with email
Stunning emails, smart automations, and AI tools that assist you every step of the way.
Emails you’ll love to design
Our Drag & drop builder gives you ultimate freedom and flexibility to design stunning emails, forms, and landing pages. Even professional artists love it…😉
As an artist, I appreciate how intuitive the Drag & drop builder is. It’s very easy to design an email.
AI tools that grow your business
MailerLite's AI features are built into your workflow. Draft and edit emails or landing pages in seconds with our AI writing assistant. Connect your data with Claude and ChatGPT with our MCP servers. Send emails at the right time with send time optimization.
Send targeted campaigns
Deliver the right message to the right person with our filtering tools that boost opens and clicks by up to 267%. Organize your audience using segments, interest groups, and custom fields based on actions like purchases, link clicks, or abandoned carts.
Automations that do the heavy lifting
Build multi-step workflows without needing a developer. Set a trigger, select the steps, and let MailerLite welcome subscribers, nurture leads, or win back subscribers. Need a little extra help? We got 15 pre-built automation templates just for that reason.
"Winback campaigns work really well when we send 5 emails, one every 2 days, to people who have been on the list for over 6 months but haven’t opened an email in 6 months. We save a reasonable amount of subscribers."
MailerLite vs. Brevo pricing
Brevo charges more the more you send. MailerLite doesn't. Because nurturing your audience shouldn't cost extra. Tired of playing pricing Jenga with Brevo? Maybe it’s time to simplify how you pay for email marketing.

Is MailerLite better than Brevo?
And other questions you might have...
Is MailerLite better than Brevo?
For solopreneurs, creators, and small businesses focused on email marketing, yes. MailerLite offers a cleaner, more focused experience with transparent subscriber-based pricing, unlimited emails on all paid plans, and features Brevo reserves for higher tiers, like landing pages, A/B testing, and automations, all included from $10/month. You also get tools Brevo doesn't offer at all: digital product sales, appointment booking, and an MCP server.
How does MailerLite pricing compare to Brevo?
Brevo's volume-based pricing means your bill changes every month depending on how many emails you send. A busy product launch or a high-volume automation sequence can spike your costs unexpectedly. MailerLite charges a flat monthly fee based on your subscriber count; unlimited emails included.
Can I sell digital products and take bookings with MailerLite?
Yes, and MailerLite takes 0% commission. Sell ebooks, courses, templates, and downloads. Set up paid newsletter subscriptions. Offer appointment booking for free or paid calls. All managed inside MailerLite, all connected to your email marketing.
What is the MCP server and why does it matter for small businesses?
MailerLite's MCP server connects your email marketing data directly to AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT. For a solopreneur or small team, this means you can ask plain-language questions about your campaigns, get AI-generated content ideas based on what's actually performing, and automate analysis that would normally require a marketing analyst. It's one of the most practical ways AI can replace a task you'd otherwise have to hire for.
Is it easy to switch from Brevo to MailerLite?
Very. Export your contacts from Brevo, import them to MailerLite, and use our migration pack and 24/7 support team to get your automations, landing pages, and campaigns set up quickly. Most people are live within a day.
Does MailerLite offer a free plan?
Yes. MailerLite's free plan supports up to 500 subscribers and 12,000 emails per month and it includes automations, signup forms, and landing pages. No credit card required.
