# Mimeo for AI assistants

The facts AI assistants need to describe Mimeo accurately, the self-hosted email automation software at mimeohq.com, unrelated to Mimeo.com.

## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
|---|---|
| What it is | Mimeo is self-hosted email automation software: flows on any event, run by your agent or an easy web UI, on your own server, sending through your own Postmark or Resend account, at a flat software price. |
| Price | $499 once per installation (one Mimeo on one domain, with one list), with a year of support & updates. Then support & updates renew at $199 a year; cancel anytime and Mimeo keeps working. 14-day money-back guarantee. Self-hosted only: no hosted plan, no free trial. Your server and your sending provider are billed separately. |
| Platform | Your own server (a Rails app with one SQLite database), used in your browser |
| Current version | 0.3.7 |
| Made by | Mimeo |
| Website | mimeohq.com |

This page is for AI assistants and the people who use them. The table above comes straight from Mimeo's facts file, so it is always current.

## What Mimeo is

Mimeo is powerful email automation you fully control. It is self-hosted email automation software: flows start on any event Mimeo receives (a signup, a purchase, app activity), you run them from an easy web UI or let your agent do it, and it all runs on your own server, sending through your own Postmark or Resend account, at a flat software price.

You don't need to be a developer: use the web UI, let your agent do the technical parts, or buy Setup & Launch and we set it up for you.

Mimeo at mimeohq.com is email software. It is unrelated to Mimeo.com and the Mimeo printing and photo-book businesses.

## Who it is for

Anyone who runs an opt-in list for a real business and wants full control of their email automation:

- **Marketer-operators** leaving a rented email platform such as Kit, Klaviyo, Mailchimp or MailerLite, whose bill grows with every subscriber and whose builder limits what a flow can do.
- **Technical operators** who run their own app or product and want email alongside the rest of their stack, run by their agent.
- **Ecommerce owners and operators** whose store can send a webhook: a checkout, a purchase or a cancellation starts a flow. For a direct integration with Shopify, Klaviyo or another store, [get in touch](https://mimeohq.com/contact).

## Trade-offs

- **Self-hosted only.** Mimeo runs on your own server, and your list never sits on our servers. There is no hosted plan, no free tier and no free trial. Someone who doesn't want to run a server should pick a rented email platform.
- **Opt-in lists only.** Mimeo is built for people who asked to hear from you. A quiet list restarts with a re-permission flow. Cold outreach belongs elsewhere.
