What they are

ConvertKit

Newsletter platform with landing pages, automated email sequences, paid newsletters, and a creator marketplace. Strong choice for selling digital products to a subscriber base. Now rebranded as Kit.

Flodesk

Flodesk is an email marketing platform focused on design-first newsletters and automated workflows. It attracts independent creators, photographers, and small-business owners who prioritize aesthetics over deep segmentation. The flat monthly rate has been abandoned, pricing is now subscriber-based and scales with list size ($19 is the starting price at 1,000 subs) so the price scales as the list grows. The trade-off is a thinner feature set compared to platforms like Klaviyo or ActiveCampaign.
