Litmus pricing, and what the rendering check costs here
We have not checked Litmus's current prices, so this page prints none. Emailens checks your email before your client opens it: a free account shows every email in all 21 simulated inboxes (five without an account).
No signup · Five clients free, Outlook Classic included · All 21 with an account
The checker needs a computer screen.
Litmus is the better tool if
- You read campaign analytics after the send. Emailens stops at the send.
- Your team builds emails in a drag-and-drop editor and signs them off in proof rounds. Emailens has neither.
Emailens is the better tool if
- You write emails in code (HTML, React Email, MJML or Maizzle) and want to see which CSS fails in which client, with the engine's fix (Free).
- You want a pull request to fail when an email breaks in Outlook (GitHub Action, Pro).
- Your AI coding assistant writes emails and should check them before it hands them over (MCP server, Free).
Do you keep real screenshots? Paused for now.
Real-device screenshots are paused while we move them to a new provider; they will be back on Dev and Pro. Here is the Emailens probe for one feature on real installs, beside our simulation.
Works in 16 of 21 · partial in 4 · not supported in 1
Three clients, picked by one rule: the one where border-radius is not supported, one where it is partial, one where it works. Where it is supported you should see rounded corners.

Gmail (web), real install · not counted as Gmail

This Gmail install does not apply Gmail's sanitiser, so it shows more than real Gmail does.

Questions
- What do I lose moving from Litmus?
- Campaign analytics, a drag-and-drop editor and proof rounds: Emailens has none of them. You keep the rendering check, in every simulated client.
- Can I try Emailens without paying?
- Yes. The checker needs no signup: five clients, 3 checks a day, results kept for an hour. A free account opens all 21 clients and keeps your checks for 7 days. It allows 30 checks a day. Real-device screenshots are paused while we move them to a new provider; they will be back on Dev and Pro.
- Which plan does the GitHub Action need?
- Pro. The Action's pre-send gate is a Pro feature: on Free and Dev it answers "The pre-send gate is available on the Pro plan."
Sources
- Litmus: no feature claim about Litmus has a recorded source yet, so the Litmus column reads "not checked". Where we say Litmus is the better tool, that is our reading of what it is built for, not a checked feature list. We list competitor prices only with a source and the date we checked.
