vs.
Mailchimp sends the email. Landing Platform runs the business.
Mailchimp bills you per contact — even the ones who unsubscribed — for a tool that mostly sends newsletters. Landing Platform replaces it and 40 other tools with one flat login: CRM, email + SMS, projects, money and AI.

You bought Mailchimp to simplify. Then the stack crept back.
✕ Your bill climbs every year while unsubscribed and duplicate contacts still count toward the price.
✕ You bolt a real CRM, a project tool and invoicing onto Mailchimp because its CRM and pages are "lite" — now you pay for five tools.
✕ Emails drift to spam on shared IPs and there's no deliverability dashboard to tell you why.
Half your business vs all of it
Mailchimp is great at its slice. Landing Platform is the one place your whole operation lives.
Sends the email. Bills you per contact.
- A contact-tier meter — even unsubscribed contacts are billable
- Annual price hikes; free tier cut to 250 contacts
- A CRM "too simple for real sales workflows"
- Basic landing pages reviewers call "painful"
- Hidden add-ons: SMS, transactional, overage charges
- Real bills run 20–40% above the advertised price
Email + the business, one flat price.
- One flat fee, unlimited seats — no per-contact meter
- A real CRM with deals & pipelines, not contact tags
- Email AND SMS built in, automation across the business
- Projects, Gantt, time tracking & profitability
- Commerce, invoicing, HR, courses, PR, affiliate, portal
- White-label & voice — run it as your own platform

"But we already use Mailchimp…"
It is — its sending and brand are genuinely strong. The problem isn't the email; it's everything around it. You still need a CRM, project tool, invoicing and SMS, so you pay Mailchimp AND four other tools. We send the email and run the business from one login.
It does — but reviewers consistently call them "lite": the CRM is too simple for real sales workflows, and the pages are basic with limited templates. Fine to tag a contact; not enough to run sales. We give you the real thing.
Mailchimp is cheap until it isn't: free tier is now 250 contacts, prices rise yearly, and you pay for unsubscribed contacts. The moment you add a CRM, projects and invoicing, the multi-tool bill overtakes one flat platform.
"We were running our PR, social scheduling and the rest of our marketing across half a dozen tools that never talked. Now it's all in one place: one login, one source of truth — we plan, schedule and measure from a single screen, and watch it all work together."
Claim a founding seat

From the team at Pivotal. Founding & Vanguard seats are limited — once they're placed, founding pricing closes.
