Why we started
A few years ago, one of us sat through the same scene for the fiftieth time: open the email builder, hunt for the right block, click thirty times to change a font, paste in a paragraph the CMO rewrote at 4pm, watch the layout collapse on iPad, ship it anyway.
Email tools today are competent. They render in Outlook. They preview on mobile. They include drag-and-drop. None of them, though, behave like a coworker. None of them remember last month’s campaign. None of them open the moment you describe what you want.
We started Postern to take that gap seriously.
What we believe
Tools should match how people actually work.
Not the other way around. If your team designs on iPads, the editor should feel native there. If your CMO talks in plain English, the editor should listen.
Three good ideas beat fifty mediocre ones.
We will skip features that don’t earn their weight. AI as the primary interface, a visual conditional builder, and tablet-first editing — those three earn it.
Transparency is table-stakes.
Pricing, roadmap, and security posture are public. We charge for the product, not for the right to know how it’s built.
Boring infrastructure, exciting UX.
We obsess over things you shouldn’t have to: row-level tenant isolation, audit logs, GDPR, soft-delete recovery. So your team can spend their time on the work that gets read.
Team
A small, distributed team — currently three people, hiring carefully. We’re looking for engineers, designers, and one writer who has shipped a marketing site for a tools company before.
If that sounds like you, write to hello@postern.io. Compensation is competitive salary plus meaningful early-stage equity. Remote-first. Async by default.
Stay close
We post updates as the beta gets closer. Drop us a note at hello@postern.io or join the waitlist on the home page and we’ll email you the moment it opens.
