Newsletter Self-hosted

Listmonk

Self-hosted newsletter and mailing list manager.

overview

Listmonk is a single-binary, high-performance newsletter manager written in Go. Bring your own SMTP. Excellent for technical operators who want full control.

for SaaS product teams

A SaaS product sends on behalf of its customers, so the deciding factors are tenant isolation, whether suppressions can be scoped rather than global, and whether support can answer why one specific account did not receive one specific email. Lifecycle automation and transactional sending usually need to coexist.

Against trial expiry notices, dunning, onboarding sequences, and per-tenant transactional mail, Listmonk covers event stream, the suppressions API, scheduling, and webhook coverage, and does not cover multi-tenant support. Whether that gap matters depends on how central those are to the build.
