What is Moosend?

Moosend vs SendPortal: editorial side-by-side
Moosend
5.0MKT AUTO
Moosend's feed is still all blog posts; no product release in nearly three months.
◆ Current state
Every entry in Moosend's feed since early September is a blog post on marketing topics; the latest covers protecting signup forms from bot signups. No product feature releases appear in this data.
◆ Where it's heading
The development direction can't be read from this source. Either the tracked feed is a blog rather than a changelog, or product releases aren't announced publicly. The topics (automation journeys, vertical guides, campaign examples, now SEO) match Moosend's SMB email-marketing positioning but say nothing about what is shipping.
◆ Prediction
The entries do not support a prediction about the product; a real changelog source is needed before trajectory can be judged.
SendPortal
2.5MKT AUTO
SendPortal resurfaces with a v4 patch release, its first tag since 2020.
◆ Current state
SendPortal's last tagged release before this month was v1.0.3 in July 2020. On October 22 it published v4.0.0.1, which fixes sp:install skipping migrations on fresh installs and a route-caching failure from a duplicate logout route. The changelog link implies a v4.0.0 release just before it, which isn't in the tracked entries.
◆ Where it's heading
A major version followed by fixes to the installer suggests the project is active again and new installs are being tested. With two tagged releases six years apart, there's no cadence to read yet.
◆ Prediction
If v4 is a real revival, more point releases should follow within weeks; another long silence would mean v4 was a one-off.
