Newsletter service
Scheduled sends, subscriber lists, and background jobs — the classic email SaaS shape.
A newsletter product needs a database for subscribers, cron or queue workers for batch sends, and enough compute for the dashboard. We model 10k daily actives with background jobs enabled — the kind of app Railway or AWS EventBridge stacks were built for.
