# A production studio for email you already send elsewhere

Agencies that search for a Stripo alternative usually already have a sending platform. They need a studio that keeps client brands consistent, collects approval, and checks the email before export. Memo creates the email. Your existing platform sends it.

## When Memo fits

- You want Brand Kits and reusable blocks so each client stays on brand across campaigns.
- Review links and versions matter as much as the canvas you design on.
- Memo Check should catch broken links, missing alt, and footer gaps before handoff.
- The sender already exists. You need production HTML, not another place to blast lists.

## When to stay with Stripo

- You only need a standalone HTML canvas and already run review somewhere else.
- Your team is happy composing markup inside the sending platform you already use.

## How it works

1. **Open a client workspace** - Give each brand its own workspace so kits, blocks, and campaigns stay organized.
2. **Design on the Brand Kit** - Apply colors, type, and logos, then compose from reusable blocks instead of rebuilding every email.
3. **Share a review link** - Send one link for comments and approval on a frozen version, not a moving draft.
4. **Check, then export** - Run Memo Check and export HTML and plain text into the sender you already use.

## FAQ

### Is Memo a Stripo alternative?

Memo is an email design studio for agencies that already have a sender. If you want brand kits, review, Memo Check, and export instead of only a visual canvas, it is the alternative to evaluate.

### Does Memo replace the sending platform?

No. Memo creates the email. Your existing platform sends it. Keep the ESP, CRM, or API you already pay for.

### What does Memo Check look at before export?

Automated preflight on the compiled email: broken links, missing alt text, footer gaps, and structural issues. It is not inbox-rendering certification.

### Can we import existing HTML?

Yes. Import HTML for review, checking, and export, or start from a template or blank canvas in the studio.
