About Kit

Kit is an email marketing platform built for creators. Whether you are a writer, podcaster, YouTuber, or course creator, Kit is designed around growing and monetizing an audience.

Why Creators Choose Kit

Most email marketing tools are built for e-commerce or enterprise. Kit is different. The entire product is designed around the creator workflow: build an audience, nurture it with content, and sell digital products directly to your subscribers.

What You Get for Free

10,000 subscribers - The largest free subscriber limit of any email marketing tool
Unlimited email broadcasts - Send as many emails as you need, no monthly cap
Landing pages and signup forms - Unlimited, with decent templates to get started
Audience tagging and segmentation - Organize subscribers based on interests and behavior
Digital product sales - Sell ebooks, courses, and downloads directly through Kit
1 visual automation - Set up a basic automated email sequence

The Trade-offs

The free plan limits you to one automation workflow, so complex drip sequences require upgrading. There is no A/B testing, and reporting is basic. But for a creator just starting out, 10,000 free subscribers with unlimited sends is hard to beat anywhere.

When to upgrade to a paid plan

Kit's free plan carries you a long way, up to 10,000 subscribers with unlimited broadcasts. The trigger to upgrade is not list size, it's automation: the day you want an automated welcome sequence, a visual funnel, or a third-party integration, you've hit the paid line.
