Compare/Airis vs Mailchimp

Templates you fill in,
or emails that arrive finished.

Mailchimp gives you an editor and a gallery of templates to fill in, with beta AI help on its higher plans. Airis gives you finished emails: it builds your account and your first emails from your website, then runs it from chat.
