23 alternatives to I was tired of writing HTML emails so I built something that works
Hey HN, I was tired of writing HTML emails and one day was going through reddit specifically searching for people who hated writing HTML emails and heard a lot of complaints from solopreneurs and marketers as this is a very boring task and many marketers and solo founders have much more important tasks to take care off. So I decided to build HTML email to solve this. My friends have already saved hours using this product. This is my 11th product and I think this solves a problem many folks are struggling with. Feel free to share your views.
This tool simplifies the process of creating HTML emails, eliminating the need to manually write code. It's designed for solopreneurs and marketers who spend considerable time on email formatting rather than… Below are 23 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. I was tired of writing HTML emails so I built something that works launched in 2024; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

Migma AI▲483After our email campaign generated 30% more revenue at my previous startup, I knew we needed to double down on email marketing. Problem was, our workflow was absolutely broken: - Designer in Figma (day 1-2) - Copywriter with ChatGPT (day 2-3) - Developer to code it for 40+ email clients (day 3-5) - Back and forth for revisions (day 6-7) - $1500+ per campaign, weeks of delays I built Migma.ai to solve this. You paste your website URL, describe what you want ("announce our new feature using info from this blog post"), and get a complete, on-brand, responsive email in 30 seconds. Migma: -…

AhaSend▲132I'm the founder of AhaSend. We've built a transactional email service specifically for developers, with a Pay-As-You-Go pricing model ($0.50 per 1,000 emails) and up to 70% volume discount for platform partners. While there are many ESPs out there, we focused heavily on the Developer Experience to solve the pain of building and testing email flows: * The CLI: Heavily inspired by the Stripe CLI, we built a tool that lets you develop and debug locally. You can listen to webhooks, trigger events, manage your domains, and send / list / debug messages directly from your terminal. * True…

Hi HN, I’ve developed http://tabular.email (Tabular), a new email design tool that generates hybrid mobile-first email HTML. Think of emails for your app, such as user verification or welcome, newsletters, or marketing emails. My goal was to make designing emails as quick and intuitive as possible. To make a tool where everything is done visually (adjusting margins, paddings, gaps, dimensions etc.), without the user having to worry about writing email HTML code. Cool thing is that you get full control over how your email looks on mobile devices. When designing, you can switch to…

Hi HN :) really excited to share this with you. The one thing AI reliably does is generate noise. Half the tools I see launch are just machines for producing more noise across more channels. And people are starting to see this in the form of emails in their inboxes as spam filters are struggling. There used to be a useful signal in email: the effort a sender put into customizing a message was a rough proxy for how relevant it actually was. AI killed that. Now it's customized slop with the appearance of effort with none of the cost. It is painful that the open internet / open channels…

Capturing emails always sucked. I don't want to add a full-blown newsletter API. That's why I've created my own tool. Would love your feedback on this

Hi! Long time reader, first time submitter. I've finallllyy got my first webapp online. It's been a long time coming, I started it over a year ago and just been an hour here, a couple of hours here, and a period of a couple of months of nothing. I first wrote it as a way to learn some python it sort of grew to fill a need I had. It's at a point now where I'd LOVE some feedback as I am going round in circules. Please, it's free, just hit the home page, plugin in a name/email and url you want to links checked on. If you use the name 'DeleteMe' I will remove the account after a week, so feel…

I'm plugging my stuff, but I think the story behind it is equally interesting: I recently fell into the usual indie hacker/solo dev trap: write a lot of code, don’t really work on marketing. The illusion of productivity is actually crazy when you think about it. That led me to try out no-code and low-code tools. Eventually, I settled for n8n. It’s a great compromise when it comes to prototyping. I ended up creating a bunch of scripts that helped me improve my programmatic SEO skills, taught me how to use AI agents and other nice stuff. It turns out you don’t need to write lots of code…

Hey HN, I’m a solopreneur and have been in the SaaS space for the past 3 years. My last 3 startups failed, and a common challenge in all of them was figuring out how to reach my audience. Recently I started with cold outreach (its a struggle, since I dont have much experience with marketing). I am finding leads mainly using exa.ai websets (web vector search, extremelly good for multiple use cases, recommend checking them out) and then sending them through smartlead. I ran the campaign for the past 30 days and 12-15% emails always bounced. This wasted my email credits & chances of reaching…

Hey friends! I’d like to introduce my latest product, Flashpost, a post scheduling tool for Reddit. The free tier includes 5 free posts per month so you can give the product a try. It is my first paid product as I try to make it as a solo indie dev! The goal is to offer a simple tool for creators to promote their projects on Reddit without breaking the bank for a single distribution channel. Now for the behind the scenes details. ## The Backstory When I launched my first project TechStackLeads on Reddit, the response was remarkable. My post received 700k impressions, resulting in 20k…

Still veryyy early, but I wanted to check if others would be intrested. Would love to hear what you think. <3

Example: Blah blah blah Please also DM me here: https://bar.cwhlabs.com/s/Y6QJLKFDJNAOQ1D2VEITYKJRRVANI9NP --- How it works: Create a inbox -> generate link -> leave it -> check mail in 7 days -> (auto destroy) leave it on the anonymous place whatever you want people to contact you one time only, ask them to leave a contact method also. Contact them back. Basically it is a safer way to contact online since scammers are crazy collecting our infos/social handles in 2023. The mailbox will auto burnt after 7 days. I hope it helps you. Thanks for visit.

I wanted to find a product idea to build. "Build things people want," right? So I thought, why not literally find people saying what they want? I wrote a script to collect thousands of Reddit posts where people are looking for a solution or complaining about a problem. Then I used GPT to filter out the noise and score each one based on how viable the idea seemed. Threw together a simple search interface so anyone can explore them. I was planning to build a more advanced paid version of this, but figured I'd share the raw version first to see if it's actually useful to anyone.
