What is Dittofeed?

Dittofeed sends messages to your users based on who they are and what they do. You bring in user data through Segment, reverse ETL or its API, build segments, design templates in HTML, MJML or a low-code editor, and send one-off broadcasts or event-driven journeys. Messages go out through providers such as SendGrid and Amazon SES, and a dashboard tracks delivery and engagement. Parts of the tool can be embedded in your own app.

Good fit if

  • You want Customer.io or OneSignal style journeys while keeping user data on your servers.
  • Your developers want an API-first tool they can embed.

Look elsewhere if

  • You need general app-to-app automation rather than user messaging: n8n or Activepieces.
  • You want a light install: the bundled compose file starts 17 services, including PostgreSQL, Kafka, ClickHouse and MinIO.

Before you adopt it

The repository is MIT-licensed. Multi-tenancy, embedding and white-labeling are sold separately in a closed-source edition, and the company also runs a hosted cloud. Activity has dropped: only a few commits in the last three months.
