Alternative to MailerLite: Hyax
MailerLite is one of the best ESPs for creators. But when you also need a website, products, courses, community, and support tools, you’re duct-taping five products together. Hyax is the full platform with AI-powered email built in.

Why switch from MailerLite to Hyax
Platform, not only ESP
MailerLite is built for email (and landing pages). Hyax adds blog, products, courses, community, help desk, chat, and AI, still at $29/mo flat.
Often pricier at scale
At 15k contacts MailerLite is often tens of dollars more than Hyax Starter, and that’s before you buy the rest of your stack elsewhere.
Editorial + campaign AI
Hyax trains on your brand for long-form and campaigns. MailerLite’s AI stops at lighter generation inside an ESP workflow.
