A Loops alternative
Loops is a modern email tool for SaaS, with a clean UI for transactional and marketing email, an API, and an MCP integration. tinysend overlaps on sending and the API, and adds a public newsletter with an archive, writing from your inbox, a hosted inbox for replies, and auth.md agent self-signup.
Both are modern and developer-minded. Here is where they differ.
| capability | loops | tinysend |
|---|---|---|
| send newsletters | yes | yes |
| write from your email client | no | yes |
| hosted inbox for replies | no | yes |
| subscriber management | yes | yes |
| custom domains | yes | yes |
| open tracking | yes | yes |
| public archive + RSS | no | yes |
| REST API | yes | yes |
| agent self-signup (auth.md) | no | yes |
Pick Loops if you mainly need transactional and lifecycle email for a SaaS product with a polished dashboard.
Pick tinysend if you want a public newsletter with an archive, the ability to write from your inbox and receive replies, or agent auth.
Export your Loops contacts as CSV and import them into a tinysend list, then set up your sending domain. See managing subscribers and custom domains.
