## What it is
SendPortal is an open-source, self-hosted email marketing application for managing newsletters, subscribers, and campaigns. It is a Laravel-based stand-alone app wrapping the SendPortal Core package, integrating with email services like Amazon SES, Postmark, Sendgrid, Mailgun, and Mailjet.

## Use cases
- self-host my own newsletter tool instead of MailChimp
- send email campaigns to subscriber lists
- track email opens, clicks, bounces and unsubscribes
- manage subscribers and segments via CSV import or API
- run email marketing for multiple teams or workspaces
- add email marketing features to an existing Laravel app

## When to choose
- you want to cut costs versus MailChimp or Campaign Monitor
- you need full control over your subscriber data via self-hosting
- you want unlimited subscribers, campaigns, and workspaces
- you already run a Laravel stack and want an installable package

## When to avoid
- you want a fully managed hosted service with no server maintenance
- you need advanced marketing automation workflows beyond campaigns and tracking
- you cannot run PHP 8.2+, Laravel 10+, and MySQL/PostgreSQL
