MailerLite: features, pricing and who it fits
MailerLite is a low-cost tool with a drag-and-drop builder and more than 70 content blocks. Seats and automations are plan-gated: the Free plan gets 2 seats and 3 active automations, Comfort gets 3 seats and 50, and Power is unlimited. It also supports paid newsletters through Stripe.
