Historical comparison from Fable’s September 2026 research, not a current vendor quote. Confirm current provider features, prices, currency and billing periods. Pulse is unbuilt. Brevo is the one large vendor that meters what matters: emails sent, not contacts stored, with a free plan of 300 emails a day and no contact cap. We agree with that model — it is the same one Pulse uses — so this comparison is not about the meter. It is about what sits on top of it: removing the "Sent with Brevo" footer is a paid add-on on their Starter plan, SMS credits are sold separately, and a reply is still just an email in an inbox.

| Centilio Pulse | Brevo | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free (1,000 emails/mo); Pro $19 for 25,000; Business $39 for 100,000 | Starter from 5,000 emails a month; Standard adds automation; Professional from 150,000 emails with 10 seats |
| Metered on | Emails sent — same idea, and they were right first | Emails sent |
| Free plan | Unlimited contacts, 1,000 emails a month, no daily cap | 300 emails a day, no contact cap — more generous by month than ours |
| Removing the vendor logo | Free on any paid plan; never a line item | A paid add-on on Starter |
| Cold outreach and warmup | Included on Pro, on your own domain | No |
| Replies | Classified into interested, not now, wrong person, unsubscribe — onto the customer record in Relate | An email in an inbox, or a contact in Brevo's own CRM |
| WhatsApp and SMS | After launch, and it says so | WhatsApp on Professional; SMS credits sold separately |
| Seats | Unlimited on every plan | 10 included on Professional |
| Availability | Not shipped — wave 2, in design | Shipped, and priced sensibly |

You want sending-based pricing from a mature product today, you need WhatsApp and SMS now rather than after a launch, and the footer add-on does not bother you. Brevo is the closest thing to Pulse that you can actually buy this afternoon.
You want the replies to become a customer record rather than an inbox, you also do outbound and want it on the same list and reputation, or you would rather the vendor logo simply came off with any paid plan.
Historical comparison from Fable’s September 2026 research, not a current vendor quote. Confirm current provider features, prices, currency and billing periods. Pulse is unbuilt. For a business that wants campaigns, sequences and outbound on one list, yes — and with unlimited contacts instead of a price that climbs as your list grows. For a Shopify store that needs product-feed automation, no; that is Klaviyo.
Historical comparison from Fable’s September 2026 research, not a current vendor quote. Confirm current provider features, prices, currency and billing periods. Pulse is unbuilt. For a business that is not an ecommerce store, yes. For one that is, Klaviyo is genuinely the best product in that niche and we would rather say so than sell you a year of disappointment.
For a business that also sends a newsletter, yes, and it is the only tool on this list that does both on one list and one reputation. For an agency running high-volume outbound across dozens of domains, no — they are built for that and we are not.
Historical comparison from Fable’s September 2026 research, not a current vendor quote. Confirm current provider features, prices, currency and billing periods. Pulse is unbuilt. It is aimed at the same buyer, and Brevo is the only large vendor that already prices the right way, by emails sent rather than contacts stored. Our argument is that they then charge extra for removing their own logo and sell SMS credits separately, and that replies going onto a customer record is worth more than either.
