Focus on the writing.
We'll handle the marketing.

Built for authors, from the ground up
Generic email platforms treat your book launch like a shoe sale. AuthorSend speaks your language — readers, not subscribers; launches, not campaigns — and ships tools no general-purpose platform has.
Magnet swap network
Genre-matched cross-promotion with thousands of authors — list growth no ad budget can buy.
KDP sales attribution
Sync your Amazon KDP sales and see units, KU page reads, and royalties attributed to each send.
Smart book links
One link for every store — Amazon, Apple Books, Kobo, B&N — with per-store click analytics.

Matched by genre, list size, and engagement — you approve every swap.
Pricing that doesn't punish you for growing
Most platforms quietly bill you for unsubscribed contacts and meter every send. We wrote the opposite into our billing code.
Only active readers count
Unsubscribed and deleted readers never appear on your bill. Prune freely.
Unlimited sends on every plan
No send credits, no per-email metering. Launch week costs the same as a quiet month.
No overage fees, ever
Outgrow your tier and we ask you to upgrade — we never surprise-charge or delete readers.
Every capability on every plan
Automations, A/B testing, segmentation, and AI are never paywalled. Tiers buy scale, not features.
Authors who made the switch
“AuthorSend transformed how I connect with my readers. My open rates jumped 40% in the first month, and the newsletter editor is a joy to use.”
Sarah Mitchell
Romance author
“The KDP attribution alone is worth it. For the first time in eight years of self-publishing, I know which emails actually sell books.”
James Chen
Sci-fi author & writing coach
“I found three swap partners in my genre the first week. My list grew more in two months on AuthorSend than the previous year on Mailchimp.”
Priya Sharma
Fantasy author

Yes. Our migration tools import your readers, tags, sequences, and templates, and our team offers free white-glove migration — most authors are fully moved over in an afternoon.
Only active readers. Unsubscribed and deleted readers never count toward your bill — that rule is enforced in our billing code, not just promised on this page.
Connect your Amazon KDP account and AuthorSend compares baseline daily sales against the window after each send, attributing the lift — units, Kindle Unlimited page reads, and estimated royalties — to the campaign that drove it.
A built-in marketplace where authors cross-promote reader magnets. AuthorSend matches you with authors in your genre by relevance score; you approve every swap, and promo campaigns are generated for you.
