A Mailchimp alternative where AI writes the campaigns for you

Mailchimp is a great email platform for people who enjoy building campaigns. If you don’t have time to sit in an editor, tell AssistantLabs what you want to send. The AI writes it, designs it, picks the audience from your CRM and WhatsApp conversations, and prepares the social posts and ads too.

  • A campaign from one chat
  • Audiences from your CRM
  • Email, social and ads in one place
  • Mailchimp import

Who Mailchimp is great for, and who AssistantLabs is for

Mailchimp is one of the best-known email marketing platforms in the world. It has a comfortable drag-and-drop editor, a large template library, automations, audience segmentation and integrations with almost every tool. If someone on your team enjoys building campaigns and email is your main marketing channel, Mailchimp is a solid choice.

Small and mid-sized businesses often look different. The person meant to send the newsletter is also answering customers, booking appointments and closing sales. The list is scattered across a spreadsheet, WhatsApp and the till, and the next campaign keeps slipping because nobody has time to write it.

That is who we built AssistantLabs for: a personal AI assistant for your business that runs your marketing too. Describe in a sentence what you want to promote, and the AI writes the email, designs it in your branding and chooses who gets it from what it already knows about your customers. Social posts and Meta ads go out from the same place.

What you get when you switch to AssistantLabs

A whole campaign from one chat

Type "end-of-season sale on the whole collection, 20% off until Thursday" and get a written, designed email with a subject line, images and a button. Make changes in plain words, never touching an editor.

Audiences straight from the CRM

Contacts come straight from a CRM that fills itself from your conversations. Send to customers who asked about a product on WhatsApp and didn’t buy, or to everyone who hasn’t booked in two months.

Email, social and ads together

The same campaign also becomes an Instagram and Facebook post and a Meta ad. The AI prepares them, you approve, and everything sits on one content calendar.

Branding that stays consistent

Your logo, colours and tone are saved once, and every campaign goes out in the same style. No rebuilding a template every time.

Reports that explain what worked

Opens, clicks and purchases for every campaign, with a plain-language note on what to send next time.

Mailchimp import

Your lists come over from Mailchimp by import, so you start with the audience you already built, not from zero.

Moving from Mailchimp

One move, no lost subscribers. You can keep sending from Mailchimp until your first campaign goes out from here.

  1. 1

    An integration meeting with an expert

    The expert imports your Mailchimp lists with you and saves your brand: logo, colours and tone.

  2. 2

    Describe your first campaign

    Write what you want to promote and to whom. The AI drafts the email, the post and the ad, and you review and adjust.

  3. 3

    Send and see what worked

    Approve and send. The report shows who opened, who clicked and who bought, and the AI suggests the next campaign.

Who it fits

Online stores

Sales, launches and new collections, sent to an audience chosen by purchases and by what customers asked on WhatsApp.

Clinics and service providers

A nudge to customers who haven’t booked in a while, seasonal tips and an offer for a quiet month in the calendar.

Restaurants and local businesses

A new menu, an event or a special evening, by email, on Instagram and as an ad to people nearby.

Consultants and professional services

A regular newsletter the AI writes from what happened in the business this month, with no blank page.

Mailchimp vs AssistantLabs: two approaches

Both send campaigns. The difference is who does the work and where the audience comes from.

What are the best Mailchimp alternatives for small business?
It depends who will use it. If someone on your team enjoys building campaigns in an editor, Mailchimp and tools like it fit well. If you want to describe a campaign in a sentence and get it ready, with an audience from your CRM, AssistantLabs is built for that.
Is there a free Mailchimp alternative?
You can start AssistantLabs free, with no credit card, and see the AI write your first campaign. Growing businesses move to a monthly plan; the details are on the pricing page.
Can I import my lists from Mailchimp?
Yes. Your lists come over from Mailchimp by import, so your first campaign goes to the audience you already built without retyping a single address.
What is AI email marketing?
Instead of writing and designing yourself, you describe what you want to promote and the AI prepares the email: copy, design, subject line and audience. You correct and approve.
What is the best email marketing for a small business?
One that someone will actually use every month. For most owners that means the writing and design are done for them, the audience is already there, and email, social and ads are planned together.
Can I email customers who talked to us on WhatsApp?
Yes. Every conversation fills the CRM, and from there you choose an audience: people who asked about a product, people who got a quote and went quiet, or people who haven’t ordered in months.
Is it only email, or social posts and ads too?
Both. The AI prepares Instagram and Facebook posts and Meta ads from the same campaign, all on one content calendar with reports for each channel.
Is AssistantLabs affiliated with Mailchimp?
No. AssistantLabs is an independent company with no business relationship with Mailchimp. The name appears here only to compare two approaches to marketing and to explain how importing works.
