When Beefree SDK may suit you better

You need real-time co-editing (Superpowers and Enterprise).
You need ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II on every plan.
You rely on content services APIs, an HTML importer or a template catalogue.
You also build landing pages and popups.

When Mailblocks is the better fit

You want to start at $49 / month rather than $400.
You would rather not add a server-side token exchange: a public key and your domains are enough, signing is optional.
You want an AI builder without bringing your own model key.
You want MJML output and dark-mode email variants.
