Loops is an email platform built for SaaS — transactional, marketing, and product emails in one tool. Simple API, visual editor, and event-driven automations.
Reviewer scorecard
“Over-engineered for most use cases. The API exists but Buffer or direct APIs are simpler for automations.”
“Combined transactional and marketing email with a clean API. Event-driven automations are perfect for SaaS.”
“Killed the free tier, jacked up prices, and the UI feels stuck in 2018. Buffer or Sprout Social are better options now.”
“Combining transactional and marketing email eliminates a tool. The SaaS-specific features are well thought out.”
“The complexity isn't justified for most creators. Buffer does 80% of what Hootsuite does at 10% of the price.”
“The email editor is modern and intuitive. Templates look professional without wrestling with HTML tables.”
