Brevo

Brevo is a marketing and sales platform that started as a newsletter service called Sendinblue and announced its new name on May 4, 2023, saying the product had outgrown the old one.¹ The company was founded in 2012 in India and France and says it has 600,000 customers and more than 1,000 staff; its legal notice names Sendinblue, a French simplified joint-stock company in Paris, as the site’s publisher.²³ Besides email it offers SMS, WhatsApp, push, live chat and a sales CRM. A one-person company uses it to send newsletters and transactional email from one account, keep a contact list and run sign-up forms.²⁴

Unlike most email platforms, Brevo prices its paid plans by emails sent a month, with a contact limit on each tier. Starter is $9 a month on monthly billing for 5,000 emails and 500 contacts, and $17 a month for 10,000 emails and 1,500 contacts, or $15.25 a month billed yearly.⁴ Its quota page says Starter and Standard store 500, 1,500 or 500,000 contacts depending on the emails in the plan.⁵ At $17, Brevo ranks 5th of 13 platforms in Cheapest Paid Email Platform at 1,000 Subscribers. Removing the “Sent with Brevo” footer is a $12-a-month add-on on Starter; Standard, from $18 a month, includes it and adds multi-step marketing automation and A/B testing.⁴⁶

The Free plan stores up to 100,000 contacts but sends at most 300 emails a day, and every email carries the Brevo sticker.⁷ That cap is a workload as well as a limit: a campaign to more than 300 recipients reaches only 300 on the scheduled day, and the rest must be resent by hand with the Requeue option, up to 300 a day, until everyone has it.⁷ How Email Platforms’ Free Tiers Changed in 2025–26 lists the plan and found no dated change to it.
