Feature

Welcome new readers. Write when you have something to say.

People can join your email list from your page, a blog post, or checkout. Otium sends the welcome email and can deliver the free guide you promised. Later, Otto can draft an email for you to edit and send.

How it works

  1. 1

    Let people join in a few places

    Add an email form to your page, ask for an email before a reader continues, and let customers opt in when they buy.

  2. 2

    Send a welcome email

    Write it once and Otium sends it to each new subscriber. It is a good place to deliver your free guide.

  3. 3

    Email the whole list

    Write the email yourself or ask Otto for a draft. Send it to everyone, then see how many opened and clicked.

  4. 4

    Stop emailing bad addresses

    Every email has an unsubscribe link. Addresses that bounce or report spam are removed from future sends.

Someone joins your list. The free guide arrives in their inbox.

Bought separately, this is roughly Mailchimp at $20+/mo

Questions

Do I need Mailchimp or ConvertKit too?

Not for the basics: sign-up forms, welcome emails, emails to the full list, and paid posts. Dedicated email tools still offer more complex chains of automatic emails.

Whose email list is it?

Yours. Otium records where each person joined, and you can export the full list as a CSV file.

What about spam compliance?

Every email includes an unsubscribe link. Addresses that bounce or report spam are not emailed again.

Can the AI write my newsletter?

Yes. Tell Otto what you want to say. He drafts the subject and email in your voice. You edit and send it.

Your email list is only one part. The rest is included.
