An open-source alternative to Easy Email Pro
Both embed a drag-and-drop email editor in your product, and both output MJML. They differ on licensing, framework lock-in, and what the editor does at runtime. Everything below is checkable against public sources.

Which one you should pick
The table is the detail; this is the decision. If a reason in the right column is a requirement for you, buy their product — it is the better fit and we would rather you knew.
Choose Templatical if
- Your app is not React, or you want one integration that survives changing framework later.
- You want the editor to cost nothing, with no per-seat or per-end-user metering as you grow.
- You need the editor to run with no license key and no call to a vendor at startup — offline, air-gapped, or simply not dependent on us being around.
- You want the full source, and a licence that becomes MIT two years after each release.
Choose Easy Email Pro if
- Your product is React, portability is not a concern, and you prefer an idiomatic hooks API to an imperative init() call.
- Your users need to assemble their own blocks visually, without a developer writing code.
- You send AMP email. Templatical has no AMP support and no plans to add it.
- You want a commercial vendor with a paid support contract behind the editor rather than an open-source project.
Try it before you weigh any of this
The playground runs the real editor with no signup. If it does not fit your product, none of the rest matters.
Verified on 7 August 2026 against easy-email-pro-core 1.59.9 as published on npm, and the pricing listed at easyemail.pro on that date. Pricing and features change — check their site for current terms.
“Not documented” means we found no mention of the capability in their public documentation or marketing on the verification date, not that it is impossible to build.
