Welcome series, follow-ups, and nurture sequences trigger automatically based on subscriber actions. ### Template Editor Use the built-in editor, or bring your own HTML templates. Create beautiful, professional emails that match your brand. ### Control Your Data Keep full ownership of your subscriber data. GDPR compliant with built-in privacy controls and easy subscriber management. ### Developer-Friendly API Integrate with your applications using our RESTful API. Send transactional emails, manage subscribers, and automate workflows. And a few things you wouldn't. ### Ask AI Ask questions about your list in plain language. It reads your live channel data and answers. Anything that would change data stops and waits for your confirmation. ### Autopilot Point it at your changelog, a GitHub repo, or an RSS feed. Autopilot drafts the newsletter and writes a few versions. You pick one and edit it before it goes out. ### DNS Health Monitoring Broadcast rechecks your SPF, DKIM and DMARC records every few hours. If one drifts, you get an alert while it is still cheap to fix. ### Offsite Backups Every backup uploads to object storage you own. AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Wasabi, or MinIO. Lose the server and the copy in your bucket is still there. ### Guided Provider Setup Connect Postmark, Amazon SES, SendGrid or Mailgun with a wizard. It verifies your sending domain and wires up the webhooks for you. ### Built for Agents Broadcast ships with a CLI and an MCP server.

You'll deploy Broadcast on an Ubuntu server and connect an email provider (SES, Postmark, Mailgun, SendGrid, or SMTP). The installer automates most of it, and email support is included if you get stuck. If you've never touched a server before, plan for a learning curve. What email providers work? Amazon SES, Postmark, Mailgun, SendGrid, and any generic SMTP server. You bring your own provider account — Broadcast handles list management, campaigns, automations, and analytics on top of it. Is support included? Yes. Every license includes email support and access to the documentation. Bug fixes and new releases are included for the lifetime of your license. Are future updates included? Every license includes all 2.x updates at no extra cost — bug fixes, new features, everything. When we released version 2, we extended free access to everyone who bought during 1.x. We can't promise we'll always do that for future major releases, but Broadcast is run as an end-user-friendly business, and looking after existing customers is our default. Do you install it for me? We don't offer a done-for-you installation service. Most customers run the automated installer themselves on their own Ubuntu server. If you get stuck, email support and we'll help you through it. Is this a SaaS? No. Broadcast is software you buy once and host on your own server. There is no monthly subscription, no per-subscriber fee, and no data sitting on our servers. You own your platform. Can I use this for client projects? Yes, with the Extended License. The Regular License is for a single business; the Extended License lets you deploy Broadcast for clients and across multiple brands. [See pricing →](#pricing) What happens after I buy? You'll receive an email with your license key and access to the installation guide immediately. From there, deploy the app on your Ubuntu server, connect your email provider, and import your subscribers. ## Ready to own your email platform?
