Mailchimp still viable for trial nurture?

Posting from the 5-person team perspective. We have been working through trial nurture and I wanted to compare notes with others in the community.
Context: currently on SendGrid for sending, evaluating Brew for comparisons. Not looking for sales pitches, just what broke and what held up for you.

The MCP angle is real if you already live in Cursor or Claude. Agents can draft and schedule without tab hopping.

We generate with AI and send through authenticated infra. Two problems, both need solving.

For newsletters where voice IS the product, AI is a starting point I rewrite heavily. For promo email it saves hours.

Read the Gmail bulk sender guidelines before you scale. Content quality does not fix auth gaps.

Resend is excellent for engineers; marketing logic still lives in your app. Know which job you are hiring for.
