Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Copilot Money
- Apple only: web, iPhone, iPad and Mac, with no Android app
- No free tier; $95 a year billed annually, which works out at $7.92 a month
- The trial only starts once accounts are connected
Mailchimp
- The free plan allows 250 contacts and 500 sends a month, with a 250 daily cap
- Price is driven by contact count, so the list growing raises the bill regardless of how much you send
- Send allowances are a multiple of contacts, 10x on Essentials and 12x on Standard, so a large list with heavy sending forces a tier change
- Essentials allows 3 seats and Standard 5; unlimited seats need Premium at $350 a month
- The headline $13 and $20 prices are for 500 contacts, not a flat rate
