VERDICT

Should I use Stripo?

Free email template builder: drag-n-drop HTML - stripo.email

Worth it. Buy if your team regularly designs branded emails and has outgrown your ESP's built-in editor; the free tier makes trying it cheap. Skip if you send simple campaigns or need a vendor with a spotless security record after the July 2026 incident.

Confidence

Medium. Based on 30+ public sources: review sites, official pages, case studies, and security disclosures. Pricing details beyond the free tier and $10/person entry were not fully visible in sources.

Not for

  • Anyone happy with their ESP's built-in editor
  • Senders of plain-text or minimal newsletters
