They charge $350/month for
features that cost $10 to run
Traditional platforms bundle basic email features with 100x markup pricing. We give you the complete toolkit at honest cost—so you can create campaigns, segment audiences, and grow your business without the email tax.
How Traditional Platforms Turn $0.10 Campaigns into $350 Subscriptions
Here's what most email platforms don't tell you: the features aren't expensive. The sending is cheap. But they bundle everything together and charge you for "contacts" so you can't see the real math.
Traditional Platform Math
To send campaigns that cost $10 in infrastructure
Real Cost Math
That's a 10,900% markup
The scam: They're not charging for features.
They're charging you not to think about what things actually cost.
Everything you need to create, send, and optimize campaigns
Visual Campaign Builder
What it does: Drag-and-drop email editor with templates, custom HTML support, and real-time preview across devices.
Why it matters: Build professional emails in minutes, not hours. No design degree required. No coding required. But if you want to code, full HTML/CSS access included.
Contact Management Without the Contact Tax
What it does: Store unlimited contacts, organize by lists, import/export anytime.
Why it matters: Traditional platforms charge per contact because they can, not because storage costs them anything. Storing 10,000 contacts costs providers about $0.03/month in database fees. They charge $350.
Segmentation That Actually Works
What it does: Target audiences by behavior, demographics, engagement, or custom fields.
Why it matters: Send relevant emails to the right people. Better targeting = better open rates = better deliverability = lower costs.
A/B Testing Built In
What it does: Test subject lines, content, send times, and sender names. Automatically send winning variant to remaining subscribers.
Why it matters: Stop guessing. Let data decide. A/B testing can improve open rates by 20-40%, which means better engagement and lower costs per conversion.
Marketing Automation Without the Automation Tax
What it does: Build automated email sequences triggered by behavior, time, or custom events.
Why it matters: Welcome sequences, abandoned cart recovery, re-engagement campaigns—all running on autopilot. Traditional platforms charge $400-800/month for this because they call it "marketing automation."
Campaign Scheduling and Send-Time Optimization
What it does: Schedule campaigns in advance. Let AI predict the best send time for each subscriber.
Why it matters: Send when your audience is most likely to open. Better timing = higher engagement = better deliverability.
Real-Time Campaign Analytics
What it does: Track opens, clicks, conversions, and revenue per campaign.
Why it matters: Measure what works. Double down on winners. Kill losers. Make decisions with data, not vibes.
Email Deliverability Management
What it does: Monitor sender reputation, identify deliverability issues, get actionable recommendations.
Why it matters: If your emails don't reach the inbox, nothing else matters. Deliverability is the silent killer of email programs.
AI agents that actually work for you, not against you

Subject Line Agent – Write 10 variations, predict open rates
Copy Agent – Draft email body copy in your brand voice
Segmentation Agent – Suggest audience segments
Send-Time Agent – Predict optimal send time
Re-engagement Agent – Identify inactive subscribers
Optimization Agent – Analyze and suggest improvements
Personalization Agent – Generate dynamic content
Deliverability Agent – Flag spam triggers
Included on every tier, even the free one. Because AI compute costs us $0.02 per campaign.

Tris isn't for everyone

- Sales calls and demos
Traditional platforms have entire teams for that. And they charge enterprise prices.
But if you're a product creator who wants to:
- Pay what features actually cost
- Build campaigns without the markup tax
- Own your sending infrastructure when you're ready
- Export everything and leave anytime
Then you're our people.
