Smartlead and Runner
Runner coordinates campaigns, journeys, sending windows, pacing and each mailbox's daily cap while handling opt-outs and bounces in the background.
What it is usually bought for
Send campaigns and protect your domain
The job, on its own page: Send campaigns and protect your domainBuilt into Runner
- One teammate gives the go-ahead before anything goes out
- Sending windows, pacing and a daily cap on each mailbox
- Opt-outs and bounces handled for you
- Timed multi-step follow-up, in the journey engine
Worth knowing
Live sending ships off for your organization and for each product, and an admin turns each one on, so your team chooses when automation begins. A platform switch sits above both, and while any of the three is off no campaign email leaves.
When to keep Smartlead
- If Smartlead does this job well for you today, keep it. Nothing on this page asks you to move.
- Runner stops where the bound above says it stops, and a tool you already run may cover exactly that.
Use what already works
Runner runs the campaign and records the outcome. A campaign goes out from a sending identity Runner's team configures, and your DNS stays with whoever runs it today.
