What makers say

52 makers on why they use Loops, in their own words on Product Hunt.

We use Loops for our product onboarding emails and product newsletter. What we appreciate most is how simple it is to use and how easy it is to create custom audiences! It gives you a lot of flexibility without adding complexity, especially if you have a developer background.

We use Loops for all our application emails, including post-onboarding messages, newsletter blasts, and more. Their APIs are great to work with and we love their Stripe integration, which allows us to easily send new users welcome messages right after they sign up.
