There's a specific moment every freelancer knows: blank editor, client deadline, no template to start from. Stripo covers the full path from an empty canvas to an exported, tested, client-ready email. 26 steps sounds like a lot. In practice, most of them take under a minute once you know where they are. Here's the short version of the workflow: Set your General Styles first (fonts, colors, spacing, button styles). Everything you add after this inherits those rules automatically. No more fixing inconsistencies stripe by stripe. Build your structure. Header with logo and menu, content stripes for your body, footer with socials and unsubscribe. Drag-n-drop or code, your choice. Fill it in. Text, images, banners, buttons, product cards, countdown timers, video. Each one is a block you drag into place. Personalize. Merge tags, Display Conditions for showing different content to different segments, all inside the same template. Test before you send. Preview on desktop and mobile, run accessibility checks, verify dark mode rendering. This is where most freelancers skip steps and most client complaints come from. Collaborate. Share a review link with the client, collect comments inside the editor, get approval without a single screenshot or email chain. Export. One click to 90+ ESPs. Mailchimp, HubSpot, Klaviyo, Gmail, Outlook, whatever the client uses. Save what you built. Headers, footers, product cards, entire sections. Save them as modules, reuse across every future project.

I feel confident having my editable template base designed in Stripo ready to export. It was an exciting experience.

I do have one reservation or rather an fear that has prevented me from proceeding with the export.

When designs are exported to platforms with more rigid design...
