[New Plugin] MailCanvas ✉️ Native Drag-and-Drop Email Builder (Free & Pro) | White-Label & SaaS Ready!

Hey Bubblers! :waving_hand:

I built MailCanvas – a fully native, beautiful, drag-and-drop email builder that runs seamlessly inside your Bubble application! Whether you are building an internal newsletter dashboard or allowing your own SaaS users to design their transactional emails, MailCanvas has you covered.

And yes, it comes in both a Free and an Pro version! :gem_stone:

:artist_palette: MailCanvas Free

The Free version is perfect for bootstrapper projects and simple applications that just need a clean visual builder.

  • :sparkles: Full Drag-and-Drop Canvas: Seamlessly build layout structures using text, images, buttons, columns, and dividers.

  • :floppy_disk: Save & Resume Layouts: Extract the raw layout data structure as a JSON string, save it directly to your Bubble Database, and load it back whenever you want to resume editing.

  • :shield: Bulletproof HTML Export: One action generates clean, email-optimized, table-based HTML with fully inlined CSS – guaranteed to look great on Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, and Yahoo.

  • :label: Static Placeholders: Lightweight server-side action to safely replace up to 5 static variables (like {first_name}) before firing your email.

:gem_stone: MailCanvas Pro

The Pro version unlocks advanced UI controls, unrestricted automation, and deep customization to make the builder feel like a native feature built by your own dev team.

  • :input_latin_letters: Custom Google Fonts Integration: Seamlessly fetch and enforce any typography from Google Fonts (e.g., Inter, Roboto, Poppins). Your editor and the final exported emails will natively reflect your product’s branding!

  • :shield: White-Labeled Lock UI: Keep your users safe. MailCanvas Pro automatically strips away dangerous or confusing developer buttons from the top bar (like Clear Canvas, Raw HTML viewing, and raw code importing) so users can’t accidentally break your templates.

  • :brick: Premium Pre-Made Blocks: Access custom components directly from the sidebar, including high-converting corporate Signatures and beautiful dashed Promo/Coupon Boxes.

  • :books: One-Click Premium Presets: No more staring at a blank screen! Instantly load production-ready layouts into the builder, including Welcome Emails, SaaS Invoices, and Curated Weekly Newsletters.

  • :high_voltage: Unlimited CSV-Safe Placeholder Engine: Replace 10, 50, or 100+ text tokens in milliseconds. Built with a custom string-delimiter input, meaning that fields containing commas (like user addresses) will never break your data alignment!

:hammer_and_wrench: How It Works in Your Workflows

Building with MailCanvas is incredibly smooth:

  1. Design: Your user edits their email template in the visual canvas.

  2. Export: Click a button to run Generate Export. This outputs the clean HTML markup and structural JSON.

  3. Inject Data (Pro): Run our lightning-fast Inject Placeholders (Pro) backend action. Pass your keys (e.g., {name}|{amount}) and values (e.g., John| $29.00) using a custom separator like |.

  4. Send: Take the final rendered_html and feed it directly into your preferred transactional email API (MailerSend, SendGrid, Postmark).

:light_bulb:Tip for Deliverability: When sending raw HTML strings through your API Connector, always append Bubble’s native :formatted as JSON-safe modifier to prevent any messy text formatting or quotation marks from breaking your API payload structure!

Whether you want to try the lightweight Free version or power up your platform with the ultimate white-labeled Pro experience, you can find the plugin right here:
