Transactional email without the marketing bundle
If you only need transactional sends, you don't need a marketing platform. Envello is an EU-hosted, transactional-only email API with long log retention and a DPA on every plan.
Transactional-only, focused product
Envello does one thing: transactional email, with the API, logs, and webhooks built specifically for that. If you only need transactional sends and not a bundled marketing or CRM platform, that focus is the whole pitch.
EU data residency, not just EU billing
API, database, logs, and backups all run in the EU. Every plan ships a signed DPA at signup, not behind a sales call or enterprise gate.
90-day log retention by default
Debug a delivery issue from last quarter, not last week. Free tier gets 7 days, Pro gets 90, Scale is configurable up to 365 days.
Common questions when switching from Brevo
How does pricing compare to Brevo?+
Brevo's transactional email pricing is tied to their broader platform tiers and contact limits. Envello charges by email volume only, starting at zero with 3,000 emails/month free. Check what your current Brevo plan includes and compare at envello.dev/pricing.
Can I keep Brevo for marketing and use Envello for transactional?+
Yes. Many teams split marketing and transactional sending across providers. Point your transactional domain's DNS records at Envello and keep Brevo for newsletters. The two don't conflict as long as each provider authenticates its own sending domain.
Is there a migration path from Brevo's SMTP relay?+
If you're using Brevo's SMTP relay, switching to Envello's HTTP API is a one-time change: replace the SMTP transport with an HTTP call. The migration guide on this blog covers the general pattern; the API shape is simple enough that most teams complete it in under an hour.
