The reality of email
Email is deceptively hard to get right.
Anyone can drop blocks on a canvas. Shipping an email that actually renders, lands, and converts is where most tools leave you on your own.
Outlook breaks layouts
Word's rendering engine ignores modern CSS — columns collapse and spacing shifts.
Dark mode shifts colors
Clients invert backgrounds and logos, quietly wrecking your carefully-chosen palette.
Spam filters reject sends
One risky rule or missing header and your campaign never reaches the inbox.
Accessibility gets forgotten
Missing alt text and poor contrast lock out subscribers — and hurt deliverability.
Teams juggle five tools
Builder, preview, spam checker, accessibility tool, ESP — context-switching all day.
MailViewr Email Builder fixes this
Build, validate and ship from one place — no more stitching tools together.

Responsive by design
Built for every screen, not just the editor canvas.
"Responsive" in email doesn't mean CSS breakpoints — most clients strip or ignore them. Here's how the builder actually handles it.
No @media required
Most rows use fluid, inline-block columns that wrap by their own container width — not a media query. Outlook's ghost-table fallback (which ignores @media entirely) gets the same layout on its own conditional markup.
Automatic mobile stacking
Multi-column rows collapse to a single column on narrow screens with no manual breakpoint configuration — pick how many columns per row and the builder handles the stacking rules for every client, real or Outlook's ghost table.
See it stacked before you send
The same engine that builds the email renders the live preview, so mobile stacking isn't a guess — check it across Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail's actual mobile apps in the free email preview.

Validate · the confidence layer
Design it, then ship with confidence.
Here's the Email Builder's superpower: once your email is designed, it validates itself. A full pre-flight — dark mode, accessibility, spam and cross-client compatibility — runs in seconds, right inside the builder.
- Dark-mode preview — catch inverted colors before subscribers do.
- Accessibility checker — 43 axe-core rules, alt text, contrast and structure, flagged automatically.
- SpamAssassin score — the industry-standard engine, with a per-rule breakdown.
- Cross-client compatibility — know how it renders in the 21 email clients we document.
- Shareable preview links & test sends — get sign-off before you launch.

How it compares
A different workflow, not just another builder.
Most builders stop at export and leave you guessing how the email actually renders. The MailViewr Email Builder loops preview and QA back into the same place you build — so what you ship is what you already checked.

Litmus offers real-device screenshot testing across a much wider client matrix, but it is now enterprise-only — no self-serve signup and no published plan pricing. MailViewr covers the highest-volume clients with a rendering engine instead of screenshots, publishes per-client accuracy figures, and adds a builder Litmus doesn't have. Litmus is the stronger pick for pixel-perfect QA across niche clients; MailViewr is the one you can start using today without a sales call.
