Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Integrator

Weighted verdict

Has to wire this into a stack that already exists. Wants a documented API with rate limits, webhooks that retry, a sandbox and a deprecation policy. Treats a partner-form integration page as a missing API, and reads "Zapier supported" as an outsourced one.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Campaigns & automation

How this is scored

Building the mail and the journey around it: editor, templates, segmentation, triggered sequences, A/B testing.

0 — One-off broadcasts from a fixed template; no segmentation and no automation of any kind.

3 — A drag-and-drop editor and simple list segmentation, but automation is a single welcome mail and there is no testing.

5 — Reusable templates, attribute and behaviour segmentation, multi-step automations on common triggers, and subject-line A/B testing.

8 — A visual journey builder with branching on behaviour and data, dynamic content per segment, send-time optimisation, and testing that reports significance rather than raw counts.

10 — Journeys treat the whole lifecycle: event-driven entry from other systems, branching on any attribute or event, holdout groups for measurement, and automations a marketer can read months later without a diagram.

Report an error

The Integrator

A drag-and-drop workflow builder with start and end events, branching connections, predefined templates and event triggers is documented in the help pages, with dynamic behaviour-based segments, RFM segmentation and dynamic content per profile on the marketing pages, and an A/B test send on the API. We found no public information on send-time optimisation or on testing that reports significance rather than raw counts, which keeps this below the top band. 1 3 10 11

Deliverability infrastructure

How this is scored

Whether the mail arrives — authentication, sending reputation, bounce and complaint handling — judged on what the vendor documents rather than the inbox rate it advertises.

0 — No documentation of authentication or bounce handling; deliverability appears only as a marketing number.

3 — SPF and DKIM setup documented, but no DMARC guidance, no stated bounce policy and shared sending only.

5 — SPF, DKIM and DMARC documented with a custom sending domain, automatic hard-bounce suppression, and complaint-loop handling stated.

8 — The above plus dedicated-IP options with a documented warm-up, seed or inbox-placement testing, engagement-based sunsetting, and published guidance on list hygiene.

10 — Deliverability is operated as a service: reputation monitoring surfaced to the customer, per-domain and per-ISP diagnostics, enforced authentication before first send, and postmaster or blocklist handling the vendor documents doing on the customer's behalf.

Report an error

The Integrator

Bounce handling is properly documented: categorised reasons, grouping by domain, message, list and IP address, CSV export of bounced addresses, and automatic removal of hard bounces after each send, with soft-bounce retargeting. We found no public information on SPF, DKIM or DMARC setup, custom sending domains, dedicated IPs or complaint handling, so the authentication side of the chain rests on nothing I can read. 4 5

Report an error

List ownership, import & exit

How this is scored

Whether the list and its history remain the sender's: import with attributes intact, full export including engagement history, deletion that executes, and no metering that prices leaving out of reach.

0 — Export is addresses only; engagement history, segments and automations cannot leave.

3 — CSV import and export of subscriber fields, but engagement history and unsubscribe state are not exportable.

5 — Full subscriber export including custom attributes, subscription status and unsubscribe state, plus API access sufficient to sync elsewhere.

8 — Everything exportable in open formats — subscribers, engagement history, campaigns and templates — with documented deletion of a subscriber across all records, and no export throttling.

10 — Exit is a documented feature: full-fidelity export of the whole account, contractual data return, deletion that is evidenced rather than asserted, and migration tooling in both directions.

Report an error

The Integrator

Import is thorough (column mapping across system and custom attributes, duplicate and matching modes, add/update controls) and export covers system attributes, custom attributes and consents, plus an asynchronous API that exports raw activity events — opens, clicks, unsubscribes, orders — as CSV with a documented polling workflow. We found no public information on exporting campaigns and templates, on deletion of a subscriber across records, or on migration tooling out; the advertised migration service runs in one direction. 1 8 9

Integrations & API

How this is scored

The connection surface a newsletter lives on: shop and CRM systems, events in and out, webhooks, and an API somebody can build against without a partner agreement.

0 — No API and no named integrations; the list is maintained by CSV upload.

3 — A handful of native integrations and a read-mostly API, with no webhooks and no documented rate limits.

5 — Named integrations for common shop and CRM systems, a documented REST API with keys, and webhooks for the core subscriber events.

8 — Maintained bidirectional integrations with named systems including at least one major shop platform, event webhooks with retries, documented rate limits, and a sandbox.

10 — The tool is a component rather than a destination: transactional and marketing sending on one API, events flowing both directions, versioned API with a deprecation policy, and integrations the vendor maintains rather than lists.

Report an error

The Integrator

This is a real documented REST API with Swagger, API keys, and write operations across email, SMS and web push including A/B test sends, alongside named shop integrations (Magento, Shopify, WooCommerce and more) and a data-layer route for orders and on-site behaviour. But the surface I plan a production client against is missing: we found no public information on webhooks, rate limits, a sandbox, or a versioning and deprecation policy, and the integration list ends in "...and more" rather than naming maintained connectors. 1 9 10 11

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where subscriber data and behavioural tracking live, who the contracting entity is, and which subprocessors touch the send. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as this buyer weighs it — which in this category is heavily.

0 — US vendor and contracting entity, US hosting, subprocessors unnamed; subscriber behaviour leaves the EU with no stated basis.

3 — EU hosting offered as an option or for storage only, while sending, tracking or support access remains non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.

5 — EU hosting as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — sending infrastructure, analytics, support tooling — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, EU contracting entity, complete subprocessor list published, and any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting, sending and every subprocessor in the EU, certification published, and no transfer that needs a Schrems II argument to survive.

Report an error

The Integrator

The captured vendor and integrations pages give no public information on hosting location, the jurisdiction of the contracting entity, or a single named subprocessor, and no sovereignty attributes were sourced. For a buyer who must know where subscriber profiles and behavioural tracking land, that silence sits near the bottom of the range rather than reading as neutral. 1 10

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

Whether a sender can compute the real invoice for their list size and send volume — including overage, extra domains and automation limits — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A headline price per contact tier exists, but send limits, overage rates or the tier where automation begins are not stated.

5 — Contact-tier prices public with the billing period stated and send limits given, but at least one commonly needed capability sits in an unpriced tier or add-on.

8 — Every tier priced publicly with contact and volume limits, overage rates, feature boundaries and VAT treatment stated; only genuinely custom volume lacks a number.

10 — Complete price computability: a calculator producing the annual invoice for a given list size and send frequency, including overage, additional domains and dedicated IPs.

Report an error

The Integrator

We found no public prices anywhere in the captures — no tiers, no contact or volume limits, no overage rates, no statement of where automation begins — and the only commercial signal is a qualification line that the buyer "get[s] at least 30,000 unique visits per month", which points to a sales conversation. Nothing here lets me compute an invoice for a given list size. 1
