About Sender
Sender is filling out from a budget email tool into a fuller marketing platform, now reaching into transactional sends.
Sender ships roughly monthly and has spent the past two quarters closing the feature gaps that separate it from pricier marketing platforms. December brought transactional emails — its first move beyond pure marketing sends — alongside a rebuilt dashboard; since then it has refreshed the email builder, added brand settings, and pushed ecommerce reports down to the Standard plan. Several feed entries are tutorials and best-practice posts rather than releases.
