Quickstart

Go from sign-up to a sent (or scheduled) campaign in about ten minutes. This guide takes the fastest path: scan your brand, generate an email with AI, point it at a list, and send.

1. Create your account

Head to sign-up and create an account. The Free Forever plan requires no credit card and includes a monthly allotment of AI tokens and sends, so you can build and ship straight away. Prefer to evaluate a paid tier? Every paid plan comes with a 14-day free trial — a card is required to start one, but you are not charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before then.

Your dashboard right after sign-up — describe what you want to create in the box up top, or work through the Get Started checklist.

The fastest path: the What should we create? box at the top of the dashboard takes one plain-English line — “a welcome email for new subscribers,” “3 versions of a spring sale email,” “send our launch newsletter to my list,” or “welcome emails for new signups” — and sets up the right thing for you: an email design, a set of variants, a draft campaign, or an automation, with the AI already briefed when you land.

2. Scan your brand (optional but recommended)

Open Company & Brand scan and enter your website URL. EmailFlow AI reads your site, then extracts your logo, color palette, fonts, and tone of voice into a reusable brand profile. Doing this once means every AI-generated email already looks like you.

3. Generate your first email

Type what you want into the dashboard's What should we create? box, or open the AI text-to-email builder directly, and describe it in plain English — for example, “a spring product-launch announcement with a hero image and a single Shop Now button.” The AI returns a complete, responsive email. Refine it by chatting (“make the headline bolder,” “swap the hero for something brighter”), and use Remix for My Brand to apply your colors, fonts, and voice in one click.

Every meaningful change creates a checkpoint, so you can revert to any earlier version without losing work. See Editing with chat.

4. Add your audience

Create a list and import your contacts from a CSV or add them manually. New contacts are verified automatically as they're added or imported, so invalid and risky addresses are filtered before you ever send to them — at no extra charge.

5. Send or schedule

  1. Create a campaign and attach your AI-built email.
  2. Choose recipients (a whole list or a segment).
  3. Write a subject line — or have AI generate options for you.
  4. Send immediately or schedule it for later. It's delivered through our managed Amazon SES infrastructure, signed as your verified domain.
