Products that do what Loopletter: Open-source email marketing platform does
Hi, I started building Loopletter, an open-source email marketing platform built specifically for independent artists and creators. I've been using this for a while to run marketing campaigns for my own company. But due to the lack of time to update it i've decided to open it up under the MIT license so other people and industries can self-host, extend, or just learn from the codebase. What’s inside: - Full campaign builder (visual editor, reusable templates, optional Spotify-powered layouts) - Audience management tooling (imports, segmentation, consent workflows, list cleanup) -…

Hi all! Excited to share rss2newsletter after completing dev work for the initial release. The idea for this project came out of necessity, as I wanted to share my articles via email newsletter. I was looking for a super minimal, lightweight, and open source solution, and when none existed, I decided to create one. For any sizable number of email recipients, a popular platform like Mailchimp will easily cost you hundreds or even thousands per month in per-contact fees. rss2newsletter, on the other hand, allows you to use Amazon SES, so you can reach your audience at pennies on the dollar.…

Hey HN, Chandler from Dittofeed (https://github.com/dittofeed/dittofeed). We just added low-code functionality to our open-source email template editor. The editor features a Notion-inspired “/” command interface for inserting new blocks. You still have the option of using MJML or HTML, but we wanted to give everyone an easier option for creating primarily text-based emails. We have a live demo of the editor which you can access here (just hit the “Create Template” button): https://demo.dittofeed.com/dashboard/templates Since this is the first…

Hi, The beta program of my new startup, Maildown, is now complete and is now accepting paying customers: https://www.maildown.app As well as a lot of stability enhancements, we've added a new help system, a new CLI (https://github.com/chris104957/mailer-cli) and a REST API. Maildown lets you create transactional and marketing email campaigns using Markdown syntax, so you can generate and send your email content far more quickly than with traditional WYSIWYG editors. Thanks for looking, Chris

Hi all, I am trying to get some feedback on a product we are planning to launch next week. blocfree.com We initially (me and my co-founder) came from Uber where we built their growth marketing stack and trying to bring a unified growth stack that teams can use across both marketing and eng. Our goal is enable a unified content editor to manage templates across various channels and then eventually export them to sendgrid, mailgun, mailchimp etc... Also in our thinking is to expose those templates as API's so engineering can reference those templates in their code. Love to hear everyone's…

Hi HN, I love newsletters. I first started signing up for Market Briefs right after COVID—trying to figure out why everyone was so scared of another market crash. It was exciting at first, but juggling a startup meant I couldn’t keep up, and soon my inbox was a mess of unread emails. I’d often ask myself: do I read them all, or delete and start fresh? That’s why I built LoomLetter—a simple iOS app that pulls in all your newsletter emails into one place, lets you organize them into custom lists, and even reads them aloud using AI. I built it as a one-man project to solve my own problem of…

We've tried systems like OSTicket, OTRS etc, but never found anything to our liking. Most systems were cluttered, slow or too advanced. Brimir is simple but usefull.

After getting frustrated with Customer.io's limitations, I built an open-source alternative that lets you write marketing automation in pure code. Define user segments in SQL, write email flows in TypeScript, and template emails in React+Tailwind. Support for campaigns, segments, events, users, and transactions. SMS support planned.

Hey HN, I'm a longtime reader and this is my first Show HN (exciting!) It's a collaboration between me and two friends, and we're building this upon another app we made called EmailYak, an API to receive email. We're trying something new and releasing the documentation to an app while we're still building it. We'd love feedback. Do you belong to any of these categories? 1) You've built an app with two distinct groups of users (say, people with cars and those looking for a ride) and they were able to communicate with each other. Did you expose personal email addresses? Did you send…

Hi All, I’ve been working on an open-source SDK to make collecting user feedback on your website less painful. Instead of wasting time on building your own feedback system and boring forms, my SDK lets users leave feedback directly on your website—with all the context devs actually need. Here’s what it currently does: Users can select any element on the page Auto-captures logs, metadata & screenshots Sends instant notifications (Slack, Discord, etc.) Lets you reward users → boosts engagement & conversions Gives users a tracking link → builds accountability & trust Self-host + customize the…

Hi HN! My name is Yossi, and I'm a solo indie maker. SEO tools are super pricey and free tools often fall short, leaving most users to costly subscription-based tools. So, I built SEO Stuff, a keyword tool that uses a credit-based system for builders like me who use SEO more sporadically. Have a great day!

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.

Over this past month I had the idea to build a 100% open-source MIT-licensed tool to simplify sharing code with LLMs, without the vendor lock-in you get from most SDKs. Right now, it’s way too hard to export your data or work freely with models like o1 PRO or Grok 3, especially since they don’t even have API access. So I built OpenRepoPrompt, an open-source tool from wildberry-source that serializes files and folders into XML for LLMs. I coded/designed from 12PM -> 11PM on Saturday and 8AM -> 11PM on Sunday. There are still tons of features missing (I'm working on better file filtering…
