Goals by Loops

Give any email campaign a conversion target and see if it actually worked

Overview

Goals answers a specific complaint SaaS marketing teams have had with Loops and most email tools: open and click rates tell you whether someone engaged, not whether the email did its job. With Goals, a team can mark a campaign's real target, like moving a user from free to paid, and Loops will track whether people who saw that campaign actually reached that state. It is a straightforward idea executed as an addition to an already-shipping product, not a new company built from scratch.

Because Goals lives inside Loops, its value depends entirely on whether you are already using Loops for email. It is not a tool you can adopt on its own, and Loops itself, while established, is still a mid-size player in a crowded email space next to Customer.io, Braze, and similar tools. The Product Hunt launch numbers (37 upvotes, #2 for the day) suggest real interest from the SaaS marketing crowd, but it is too early to know how well the feature holds up in daily use.

Key Features

  • Conversion Goals: Attach a target state, like paid, onboarded, or reactivated, to any Loops campaign or automation.

  • Automatic Tracking: Loops tracks impressions, enrollments, and conversions without extra setup.

  • Built on Loops' Core Platform: Works alongside Loops' existing transactional and marketing email tools, not as a separate product.

  • SaaS-Focused Triggers: Designed around product usage events common to SaaS teams rather than generic ecommerce metrics.

Pricing

Starting price

Not publicly listed as a flat figure. Loops' paid plans are priced by number of contacts and calculated with a slider on their pricing page; the free plan covers up to 1,000 contacts and 4,000 sends a month.

  • Free: $0/month. Up to 1,000 subscribed contacts, 4,000 sends/month, all features included, with a "Powered by Loops" footer.

  • Paid Plans: Priced by contact count via a slider on Loops' site; no flat published starting number found. Transactional email is included at no extra charge on paid plans.

Disclaimer: Goals is a feature within Loops, not a separately priced product. Confirm current pricing on Loops' own pricing page before buying.

Pros

  • Answers a Real Gap: Moves beyond opens and clicks to actual business outcomes.

  • No Extra Setup: Tracking happens automatically once a goal is attached to a campaign.

  • Backed by an Established Product: Ships inside Loops, which already has a working free tier and paying customers.

Cons

  • Not Standalone: Only useful if you're already on Loops for email; it isn't a separate purchasable tool.

  • Too New for Reviews: Launched July 3, 2026, so there's no independent track record yet on accuracy or edge cases.

  • Pricing Is Opaque: Loops' paid tiers aren't listed as flat numbers, which makes budgeting harder to plan upfront.

What Makes It Unique

  • Outcome-Based Tracking: Lets any campaign be measured against a real conversion state instead of vanity engagement metrics.

Manus

A general-purpose AI agent that goes off and does the task for you

Manus is an autonomous AI agent that takes a task like researching a topic, building a spreadsheet, or writing code, and works through it on its own, browsing the web and running tools as needed, then hands back a finished result. It's less a chatbot and more a virtual assistant you assign work to. It runs on a credit system, so cost tracks how much work each task actually takes rather than a flat seat price.
