What they are

Mailchimp

Mailchimp is an email marketing and automation platform used by independent creators, small businesses, and e-commerce brands to build subscriber lists, send campaigns, and track engagement. It offers drag-and-drop email builders, audience segmentation, and basic landing pages. The platform is mature and well-documented, though its pricing scales quickly once your list grows beyond a few hundred contacts.

StreamYard

StreamYard is a browser-based studio for live streaming and recording to platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitch simultaneously. Creators, marketers, and podcast hosts use it to bring on remote guests, display branded overlays, and go live without installing software. The free tier watermarks your stream, and the paid plans unlock multi-destination streaming and higher video quality.
