Review Loops?
Reviewers mostly describe Loops as simple, fast to set up, and well suited to SaaS teams handling both newsletters and product or transactional emails. Users repeatedly praise the clean UI, smooth editing, developer-friendly API, docs, integrations, responsive support, and the way it avoids the clutter of older tools. Makers of Tadata and fort echo that, citing custom audiences, easy setup, and a straightforward API. The main caveat: some reviewers found navigation or the editor confusing, buggy, or too basic, especially outside SaaS use cases.
Congrats Loops team! Loops is the best email software I've ever used.
I used to dread sending emails to my users on our previous email client because it was so junky and full of friction: broken images, badly formatted text, weird design. It was all a nightmare.
Loops has completely transformed that feeling from dread to absolute delight. Now, I look forward to emailing our users!
The interface is seamless, lightweight, and a joy to use. On top of being an incredible email marketing tool, Loops is one of the most beautifully designed interfaces that I discovered in 2023.

I've been waiting for this forever. Tried soooo many different solutions and this one was exactly what I needed:
- A decent editor UX (It's ok to be opinionated in possibilities. I don't care that much but I dread shitty editing experiences)
- An easy way to pull in and segment contacts
- A way to do both dedicated outreach (investor, community updates) and transactionals in one
I ditched 5 tools for this and insta-upgraded to the $200 plan
Things that can be improved:
- Web-view of the email so I can easily send it also to my non-email contacts
- Better integration into Airtable for better user management and pre-segmentation
- Better analytics (though know that's coming soon)

Amazing app. As a design tool, we wanted an email solution that could let us add some personality to our emails without sacrificing deliverability. Loops was perfect in that we were able to create UIs in Figma and have it ready to be sent in Loops within a few clicks, with no dev input.
It makes sending emails super fun to do. A few improvements to make here and there, but for something this easy, worth hanging with them as they do so!

So easy to set up. They've done a great job of keeping the user experience simple, yet not limiting the functionality. Very intuitive. If you're I start up. This is the perfect email product to use for your newsletter and to send product emails, i.e., onboarding.
What needs improvement
The high-level navigation. While it's really easy to get started, sometimes navigating back and forth between a campaign, your mailing list, and a segment is a little confusing.
vs Alternatives
It's built for SaaS specifically. One platform for both our newsletter and product/lifecycle emails (welcome sequences to new signups, trial nudges, onboarding).

I use Loops primarily to send transactional emails to my customers. Incredibly easy to set up, good developer tools (I connect seamlessly using n8n), reliable service and generous free tier for early stage start-ups. Customer service support on a Sunday - I'm impressed. Highly recommended!
Honestly, my biggest take away from working with chris/adam through the loops trial is that they just get what i'm trying to do.
We (Clerk) migrated over from intercom to ortto (formerly autopilot) and are now on loops for our changelogs and outbound email campaigns.
The editing experience is much smoother, the quality of support is ridiculously high and the future roadmap plans will enable me to bring a higher level of design and polish to our emails without having to jenga with these archaic tools. Love it so far!

Tried it, to me it just scratches the surface of what I would want from an email marketing provider.
The UI/UX is a bit buggy, especially in the editor.
There's no undo command so if you delete something by mistake it's just gone.
There are no API client packages available, so you have to make HTTP requests for the API.
The overall UI is simplistic, a bit overly so in some places, but is nice in contrast to many other providers which feel overwhelming to use.
Overall it just doesn't feel as intuitive or useful as most of the other competitors in this space.
It seems to just do the basics, which isn't necessarily bad... But it feels a bit flat compared to all the hype built up around this launch.

Thanks Conner! I love this kind of review.
There is an undo state, but it could be better especially as the editor improves. Yep, we plan to add API packages soon.
Not much I can do about the hype, but really appreciate you trying it out and sharing your thoughts. Give us another go in a few months and see if we've improved, I bet we have :)
I bookmarked Loops.so almost a year ago to bootstrap the endless ideas I'm finally getting out the door. Honestly could have setup the waitlist last year. This feels like a no brainer. Simplicity, clean UX, caring about the finer details like fine wine is what developer products are all about. Using this has been pure joy! Oh and the docs are exquisite. 🎉🎉💌

Cons:
Features may be limited for non-SaaS businesses.
Focus on SaaS companies may limit usefulness for other industries.
Loops is an efficient and user-friendly email platform, ideal for SaaS companies looking to improve customer communication and engagement through effective email campaigns.

Seriously incredible marketing & mailing automation! I love the simplicity of the editor, the scheduling, the transactional emails... Somehow Loops does it all with none of the drag and complexity of other tools.
You'd think email can't be reinvented for the 1000th time, but Loops did it.
