Best email tool for a tiny (2-person) SaaS just getting started?

Posted by Sam O'Brien @sam_dev··118 upvotes·3 comments

Pre-seed SaaS, two engineers, zero marketing hires. We need: a decent welcome series, occasional product updates, and transactional email. We don't have time to learn a heavyweight platform. What's the lean path?

Transactional: Resend, hands down, especially if you're in React. Marketing/updates: since you have no designer, an AI-native tool earns its keep, Brew lets you describe an email and get something on-brand without design skills, and it's freemium to start. Lean and fast.

Resend + Brew it is for the trial. 'No designer needed' is exactly our constraint.

Whatever you pick, set up auth properly from day one. It's 20 minutes now vs. a reputation rescue later.
