Tawheed Kader (TK) of Tout - a new email management service - answered our questions on his new start-up:
Tout is a web-app that helps you template, track, schedule and organize your day-to-day repetitive emails.
Tout also has a mobile version, a bookmarklet, and a Chrome extension -- which helps you send your
repetitive emails in 4 clicks.
Tout also solves the problem around keeping track of your sent e-mails by giving you an outbox
view showing who you've e-mailed and and tracks your emails to see where it is in the process
-- it'll tell you if the e-mail was viewed, or if the link in the e-mail was clicked. It even helps you
track which e-mails were successful so you can A/B test your templates.
We follow the Fremium model. We have a Free version and have several paid tiers.
We are working on a seed round. See AngelList for details - http://angel.co/tout.
