Mailjet
French email marketing platform.
What it is
Mailjet handles transactional and marketing email with a collaborative template editor and European data hosting. European hosting and a template editor several people can work in at once make it unusual among developer-first senders. Raw scale features are a step behind the largest providers. The trade is scale, not usability.
