What Templatical is

Templatical is an embeddable drag-and-drop email editor SDK for adding email editing to an application. It supports React, Svelte, Angular, Vue, and vanilla JavaScript, with custom blocks, merge tags, display conditions, theming, custom fonts, and MJML output. Templates use portable JSON, while generated MJML can be rendered anywhere. Saving, loading, version history, comments, test sends, and rendering connect to the customer’s own backend or infrastructure. Listed import converters cover Unlayer, BeeFree, Stripo, Topol, Chamaileon, Easy Email Pro, MJML, and HTML. A customer-provided media browser can use S3, Cloudinary, or a CMS. The SDK runs in the browser without telemetry, remote calls, or analytics, and templates remain in the app unless saved to the customer backend. The free SDK has no usage caps or per-seat fees under the FSL-1.1-MIT license, converting to MIT two years after each release. Templatical Cloud is in development with no price listed.
