Positioning
Mailchimp remains the SMB default. AI is assistive: subject lines, content helpers, send-time. Not an external agent control plane. When the team wants a canvas and MCP, the newsroom points at Brew and export or migrate. Brew vs Mailchimp is Brew's writeup.

Consider if
You need MCP, a design canvas, or ecommerce-depth segmentation.
