Benchmarkemail: API access and list verification added to plan comparison
What happened
Between the Aug 10, 2026 and Aug 17, 2026 captures of Benchmarkemail's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: API access (2 keys Free / 10 keys Pro) and list verification (Pro only, validate 1 list up to plan size) added to the plan comparison table. In detail: API access and list verification added to the plan comparison table: API keys (2 on Free, 10 on Pro) and list verification (Pro only, validate 1 list up to plan size). Pulse files it as a product change (feature added) with an upward direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 12, 2026) lists Pro Plan at $16.
It lands 96 days after Benchmarkemail's previous change, "Benchmarkemail clarifies Enterprise plan includes 1 user by default" (May 12, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Benchmarkemail adjusts per-user limits, expands Pro to 10 users max" (Mar 16, 2026), "Benchmarkemail adds Sign-up forms to Free, Pro, Enterprise plans" (Mar 9, 2026) and "Benchmarkemail slashes Pro plan price 49% to $19/mo" (Feb 16, 2026). Benchmarkemail has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Constant Contact, Klaviyo, Mailchimp and Convertkit also changed their Marketing & Content pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
