Same private inbox idea.A quarter of the price, plus SMS.
SendView pioneered private tracking addresses for competitor email. Sendsitive runs the same loop, capture, archive, analytics, alerts, from $14.50 per month, and is the only self-serve tool that also tracks competitors' SMS and MMS.

Sendsitive is a self-serve alternative to SendView for competitor email intelligence. Like SendView, it gives you a private capture address per competitor, archives every campaign automatically, and analyzes send times, cadence, and ESPs with change alerts. Unlike SendView, plans start at $14.50 per month instead of $69, every tracked brand has a public page at sendsitive.com/brands (subject lines, send times, previews, no account; full emails with a free account), and plans with SMS from $49 per month also track competitors' SMS and MMS marketing, which SendView does not offer as of September 2026.
Side by side, honestly
SendView is a mature, well-built product and the closest thing to Sendsitive on the market. The comparison is about price and channels, not about who is serious: if you need PDF reporting or a managed service, SendView has it; if you need email and SMS monitoring on a solo marketer's budget, that is Sendsitive.

Common questions
- What is the difference between SendView and Sendsitive?
- Both give you a private tracking address per competitor, capture every email automatically, and analyze send times, cadence, and ESPs. The differences are price and channels. SendView starts at $69 per month for 10 companies; Sendsitive starts at $14.50 per month for 5 competitors and $24.50 for 10. SendView tracks email only; Sendsitive also tracks competitors' SMS and MMS through a dedicated US number on plans with SMS from $49 per month. Sendsitive also publishes a page per tracked brand with subject lines, send times, and previews, no account needed; the full emails open with a free account.
- How much does SendView cost?
- As of September 2026, SendView lists Standard at $69 per month for 10 companies, Pro at $99 for 25, Ultimate at $169 for 50 companies with 5 users, and a Managed plan at $249 with hands-on reporting, all with a 10-day free trial and yearly discounts. Sendsitive lists Basic at $14.50 for 5 competitors, Starter $24.50 for 10, Pro $49.50 for 25, and Business $99.50 for 50 with 3 seats.
- Does SendView track competitor SMS?
- No. SendView is an email-only platform. Sendsitive tracks SMS and MMS alongside email: a dedicated US number for your organization subscribes to a brand's texting program once and every message they send is archived with the media, timing, and offer. As of 2026 it is the only self-serve platform that covers both channels.
- What does SendView do better?
- SendView has eight years of product depth: print-ready monthly PDF reports, weekly digests with screenshots, a Parcel integration for editing captured HTML, split-test tracking with several addresses per company, and a done-for-you Managed plan. If those are your daily workflow, SendView is a strong choice. Sendsitive focuses on the monitoring loop itself, capture, archive, analytics, alerts, at a lower price, plus SMS.
- Can I switch from SendView to Sendsitive?
- Yes, and there is nothing to export: add the same companies as competitors in Sendsitive, drop each new capture address into the brand's signup form, and the archive starts building from today. Most people finish in under half an hour. Your SendView history stays in SendView; Sendsitive's public archive already holds recent sends from many brands, so the feed is rarely empty on day one.
- Is there a free plan?
- Yes. Two things are free. Every brand we track has a public page at sendsitive.com/brands with subject lines, send times, cadence, and previews, no account needed (2,400+ campaigns from 50+ brands across 22 categories). A free account opens the full emails and the Explore archive of the last 15 days, with search and filters. Tracking your own competitors starts at $14.50 per month. SendView offers a 10-day trial of its paid plans instead of a free tier.
