Hi HN, I wanted a minimal alternative to heavier landing page builders. So I built a tool that generates hosted email signup pages.
You don’t need a website integration to use it: no SDK, no embed snippet, no API endpoints. You can just share your generated hosted signup page URL.
The goal is that subscribers can get a resource (e.g. PDF, video with instructions) immediately after opt-in via an optional automated first email, without wiring your ESP (ConvertKit/Mailchimp/etc.). The email is delivered via a third-party transactional email provider, not by running your own SMTP server.
One issue I had in previous projects was bot spam on signup forms. For signup pages generated by this tool I use a combination of honeypot fields, rate limiting (IP + email), form timing checks and reCAPTCHA.
The tool lets you:
- create a hosted opt‑in page you can share immediately (setup in a few seconds)
- collect subscribers in a dashboard
- export to CSV at anytime
- optionally send an automated welcome email when someone subscribes (can include a link)
For HN, I enabled a trial that unlocks the automated first email feature so you can easily check it out. You do need to log in with Google though (so lists are tied to an account).
Feedback I’d love: how can I make this tool more useful for you (what’s missing in your workflow). In what situation would you see yourself using a tool like this? What struggles do you guys have with integrating email opt-ins?
