✨ What's New

🚀 Guided Onboarding for New Users

Getting started is now effortless.

  • Step-by-Step Wizard — New users see a friendly dialog guiding them to import their first contacts
  • Template Download — Get a ready-to-use Excel template with the right column headers
  • Drag & Upload — Simply upload your contact file and see instant import results
  • Smart Detection — Knows when you have zero contacts and prompts you to get started

No more confusion about where to begin — we'll guide you through importing contacts so you can start sending campaigns immediately.

🤖 Smarter AI Campaign Creation

Deploy AI-generated content faster than ever.

  • One-Click Deploy — AI-generated email content now creates both a template and campaign with a single click
  • Success Confirmation — Clear dialog shows what was created, with a direct link to your new campaign
  • Source Code Editor — New editing mode lets you view and tweak the raw HTML directly

🎨 Visual Polish & Theme Support

A more refined daily experience.

  • Light/Dark/System Themes — Switch between themes from the sidebar or Settings page
  • Cross-Device Sync — Your theme preference follows you across devices
  • Sidebar Badges — See contact, template, and campaign counts at a glance in the navigation

Emails that fail to send now have a second (and third) chance.

  • Automatic Retry — Failed emails are retried up to 3 times before being marked as bounced
  • Bounce Tracking — Permanently failed emails are properly categorized so you know what needs attention
