A bill that follows your sending
A large list you email a few times a month costs far less when you pay per email, and quiet months cost less too.
KLAVIYO ALTERNATIVE
A Klaviyo alternative where AI does the writing and you pay per email
Klaviyo is a strong platform with a lot to learn and a bill that grows with your list. EterMail writes your campaigns and flows for you, adds cold outreach and a shared inbox, and charges for the emails you actually send.
- Pay per email, not per profile
- AI writes every draft
- Cold outreach included

WHY STORES SWITCH
What changes when you move over
No blank page
Describe a campaign in a sentence and review a finished draft, instead of building it block by block.
One place for marketing and outreach
Campaigns, flows, cold email and replies share one platform, with outreach kept on separate domains so it never touches your store’s reputation.
Set up in an afternoon
Connect Shopify with read-only access and the core flows are drafted for you to review.
BE HONEST
When Klaviyo is still the better fit
If SMS is central to your marketing, if you depend on Klaviyo’s large integration library (reviews, loyalty, help desks), or if your team builds complex data-science audiences, Klaviyo may serve you better today.
If you mainly need great email without a dedicated email specialist, and you want to pay for what you send, EterMail is built for you.
MOVING OVER
Switch in four steps
- 01

- 02
Import anything else
Export other lists from Klaviyo as CSV and import them, consent and all.
- 03
Rebuild your flows
Start from EterMail’s ready-made flows; AI drafts them in your voice.
- 04
Switch off the old flows
Turn off the matching Klaviyo flows the day the new ones go live, so nobody gets two emails.
Frequently asked questions
Is EterMail cheaper than Klaviyo?
It depends on how much you send. EterMail charges per email, so stores with large lists that send a few campaigns a month usually pay less. Use the calculator on our pricing page with your own numbers.
Can I bring my Klaviyo subscribers?
Yes. If you are on Shopify, subscribers and their consent sync from your store. Other lists can be imported by CSV.
Does EterMail do SMS?
No. EterMail is email only: marketing email, automated flows, cold outreach and replies.
Will my flows keep working while I switch?
Yes. Keep your Klaviyo flows on until the EterMail versions are approved and live, then switch the old ones off.
