Comparison
tinysend vs Brevo
Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) is a full-featured marketing suite — but that means complexity, seat limits, and no developer-native workflows. tinysend is API-first, BYOK-enabled, and usage-based from day one.

Bring Your Own Key
tinysend lets you use your own SES, Postmark, or Mailgun. Brevo routes everything through their own infrastructure — no flexibility, no cost control at scale.
API-first vs marketing suite
Brevo is designed for marketers with a visual drag-and-drop interface. tinysend is designed for developers — sequences as code, CLI deployment, full REST API.
Comparable price, better fit
Brevo charges $59/month for similar volume. tinysend is $52.50 — and you don't pay for features you never use like CRM, SMS, or chat tools.
