## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-02 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## My picks, in order
> 
> **1. ActiveCampaign** - My default recommendation for most agencies. The Agency Partner Program gives you one dashboard across all client accounts, revenue margin on accounts you resell, and co-branded or white-labeled login depending on your tier. The automation depth is the real reason to pick it: when a client asks for something weird with conditional branching, lead scoring, or CRM-triggered sends, you can build it rather than explain why you can't.
> 
> **2. Brevo (formerly Sendinblue)** - The one to pick if your book of business is small businesses on tight budgets. Volume-based pricing instead of per-contact means clients with big, lightly-engaged lists don't get punished, and it bundles SMS. Agency plan supports sub-accounts and white-label partner options. Less automation sophistication than ActiveCampaign, noticeably cheaper.
> 
> **3. Campaign Monitor** - Purpose-built for the multi-brand case. Client sub-accounts, template locking (so a client's junior marketer can't destroy your design system), and genuine white-label branding. If your model is "we build the templates, the client presses send," this is the closest fit.
> 
> **4. Klaviyo** - Non-negotiable if
