FlodeskvsKit

Flodesk is design-first email with unlimited sends and workflows, priced by list size. Kit, formerly ConvertKit, is creator email: forms, automations, paid newsletters, and a network.

How Flodesk and Kit compare

Flodesk made email marketing pretty and easy to stay in. Gorgeous templates, an editor designers enjoy, workflows, forms and link-in-bio pages, and unlimited sends on every paid plan. Pricing now scales with active subscribers; anyone on the old unlimited plan keeps it. Flodesk Checkout adds simple sales pages. Small brands with taste pick it and stay.

Kit, formerly ConvertKit, is email marketing made for creators. Forms and landing pages, tags and segments, visual automations, sequences, a Creator Network for recommendations, paid newsletters, and Kit Commerce for digital products give a creator everything the list needs, with a free plan to start. It is thoughtful and built by people who know creators.
