The new email designer

A true drag and drop experience

Drag new content into your email, resize things dynamically, drag/drop to reorder items, and resize items with a live preview.

Add rows and columns with ease

You can now add new rows and columns by simply dragging new content to the edge of any existing content. Columns can be resized by simply dragging the column to your desired width.

Real time multi-user collaboration

See a full list of everyone who is currently viewing your email. Any changes will show up in real time (and highlighted briefly with the users color) so that you know what people are working on. Never lose work with our versioning/list of changes. Preview any previous save of the email and revert at any time.

Refined & automatic mobile optimizations

We take the email and perform hundreds of mobile optimizations. The logic we have developed takes into account all the various factors (formats, widths, images, etc..) to determine the intent of your email and will automatically make it mobile ready for a beautiful display on both desktops and mobile devices. This can be turned off from the settings screen of each email if you wish.

Image editing capabilities

We have full image editing capabilities including resizing, cropping (with preview), automatic image scaling (for large images), and an extensive array of photo optimization/tweaking tools.

New & improved content options

Add blocks of text, headers, images, videos, and live content from RSS feeds. Each content option has it’s own unique set of settings/capabilities and it’s own set of style options.

Some of our new content options include:

  • Buttons
  • Line breaks
  • Spacer
  • Social (coming soon)

New HTML based editor (For advanced users)

If you choose to use your own HTML you won’t be using our drag & drop designer. In this case you will have a new code editor with a live preview of your email (as you code) We have also added versioning/list of changes support to this mode along with multi-user detection to avoid situations where you could clash with another user.

Plenty more to come

While this is a massive update (replacing our old email designer) we are just getting started. You will soon find a new “social” block that you can add to your emails, a revamped ecommerce block type, many more new templates, and many more things (that we are not yet ready to announce)

Let us know what you think!

We would love to hear your feedback about these changes and the new email designer in general. Please comment with what you think!
