The product
One system for you, your agent, or both.
Everything in Mimeo works both ways: a full automation studio when you want hands-on, and files, skills, and an MCP server your agent operates end-to-end.
- Subscribers. Full profiles, event history, every email received.
- Emails. Markdown or HTML, templates, personalization.
- Flows. Triggers, branches, logic, dry runs.
- Sequences. Drip campaigns in one readable view.
- Events. What subscribers do shapes what they hear next.
- Guards. No emails crashing into timed sequences.
- Tags & segments. Filter and target without ceremony.
- Purchase history. Messaging that knows where each customer is.
- Manager repo. Manage Mimeo from a repo with agent skills, MCP and everything editable in files.
The case for owning your email stack.
ESPs earned their (growing) price when deliverability was a dark art and automations were bolted on because there wasn't a better way. Not anymore.
Mimeo puts it all in your hands. Intuitive automations you own. Sending you control. A bill that never counts your subscribers.
- A better product. Modern email marketing tools, built agent-first.
- Your own sending. No shared pools. Your reputation, on your dashboard, in the green.
- A flat price. Grow your list without growing your bill.
Manage your own sending. Really.
Mimeo is your email marketing software where you manage your list, automations, and emails. It plugs into your own sending account. You pick one provider: Postmark, Resend, or Amazon SES (coming soon).
- Every send is checked before it goes out: verified sender, unsubscribe links, suppression list.
- Bounces, complaints, and unsubscribes are cleaned up the moment they happen.
- Big sends are paced: spread over hours at a rate you set, never blasted.
Your direct line to your customers' inboxes. Now in your control.

Every what-if, covered.
No matter what happens, everything is yours.
Who actually sends my email?
Your own sending account: Postmark, Resend, or Amazon SES (coming soon), whichever one you choose.
Isn't running my own sending risky?
It used to be. Your provider handles deliverability, and Mimeo keeps your list clean: every send checked against your suppression list, bounces and complaints handled the moment they happen, and big sends paced instead of blasted. Designed for opt-in lists.
Can I use it for cold outreach?
No. Mimeo is designed for opt-in lists where customers signed up to be on your email list and expect to hear from you. It also helps you email responsibly: unsubscribes and complaints suppress instantly, and sends are paced to protect your domain reputation and standing with senders like Postmark and Resend.
Do I need to be a developer?
No. Use the interface, let your agent do the technical parts, or have us set everything up.
Which agents work with it?
Claude Code, Codex, and any capable agent. Skills, MCP server, and API ship with every Mimeo.
My list and automations are on another tool. Can you help me migrate?
We've done it before. Your list, tags, suppression history, and automations move over. Do it yourself with the docs, or we'll run it as a fixed-price project.
What if I want to run it myself?
Anytime. Hosted and self-hosted are the same software. Buy the license outright, or let your Hosted months earn it: 12 payments and it's yours. Switching earlier just means paying out the rest of that first year.
What does the self-hosted license include?
Mimeo, forever, plus a year of updates and support. Renew annually to keep them coming, or don't. Nothing stops working.
What if I cancel?
Take everything. It was in your database all along.
What if I need help?
We offer done-for-you setup and campaign building projects.
