How we use Kit
Some links on this page pay us a commission if you sign up, at no extra cost to you. We only list tools we run every day.
Kit is the owned-audience layer. Every content brand and product collects email here, and the newsletters, welcome sequences and launch emails all go out from it.

The actual workflow
- Sign-up forms on each site add subscribers with a tag for what they signed up for.
- Welcome sequences run on their own; the AI writes and updates the emails through the Kit API.
- A weekly job pulls subscriber growth and email stats into the morning numbers.
- Broadcasts get a pre-send review (links, subject, unsubscribe) before they are scheduled.
What it replaced
Scattered lists in a few different tools, and no single place to see who is actually reading.
Rough cost for a setup like ours$0–$100/mo, depending on list size. Free covers a lot.
List price (Oct 27, 2026)Free up to 10K subscribers. Paid plans from $39/mo (billed monthly).
Tips
- Tag on the way in. Knowing why someone joined is worth more than any segment you build later.
- Use the API for anything repeatable (tags, sequences, stats) and the dashboard for visual edits.
Gotchas
- Pricing climbs with list size, so clean out people who never open.
- The visual automation builder is easy to click and hard to script or version.
