Alpaca logo

Get your first campaign draft in 2 minutes. Search, preview, insert. Done.

You're a marketer. Not a GIF hunter.

Yet you spend 20–30 minutes per campaign searching disorganized sources for the right animation. That's not strategy. That's broken workflow.

15–30 minutes wasted

Hunting through Giphy, Unsplash, or random folders for one animation. By month's end, that's 20+ hours of lost productivity per marketer.

Animations break in production

GIFs render perfectly on your screen but fail in Outlook or balloon past email deliverability limits. No warning until post-send QA.

No idea what actually works

You choose GIFs based on how they look, not performance data. No insight into which animations drive clicks, opens, or conversions.

Asset chaos at scale

Manual folder structures and spreadsheets don't scale. 50 campaigns in, you're drowning in duplicate effort and organizational debt.

We built AlpacaRelay because we spent those minutes too. We got tired of it. We bet you are too.

Email template preview

We handle complexity. You keep simplicity.

From teams doing the work

Hear how AlpacaRelay helps marketers, designers, and founders create better emails together.

I was spending more time finding GIFs than writing copy. AlpacaRelay made promotional emails actually enjoyable to build. Now I run 12 campaigns monthly instead of 6 in the same time.

The AI understands our product features. It recommends exactly the demo GIFs I would have created myself, but instantly. We've launched 3x more feature announcements in the same time.

Questions. Honest answers.
How long until we see time savings?

Immediately. Your first campaign is fastest—10–15 minutes saved just from organized search instead of manual hunting. By week 2, your team is 60% faster because you're selecting from curated options, not searching from scratch.

What if you don't have the exact GIF we need?

Upload custom GIFs—product photos, feature demos, client-specific animations. Tag them once. AI treats them like curated library GIFs, recommends them, and tracks their performance. Over time, 60% of recommendations are usually your custom GIFs because AI learns your library deeply.

Will animations break in Outlook or Gmail?

No. Every GIF is tested across Outlook, Gmail, Apple Mail, mobile, and dark mode before showing to you. We generate automatic fallback static images if a client doesn't support animation. You see rendering previews before inserting. Zero surprises in production.

Do you access our email content or customer data?

No. We never see email copy, recipient lists, or campaign targeting data. We see only: (1) which GIFs you use, (2) aggregate engagement metrics you share from your email platform (like 'this GIF achieved 15% CTR'). Your data is yours. You can export it anytime.

How does the cost compare to time saved?

One marketer running 10 campaigns monthly saves 40+ hours per year from faster GIF selection. At $50/hour loaded cost, that's $2,000+ recovered time. Freemium is always free. Pro tier ($49/month) pays for itself in recovered time within the first week.

Can our whole team access it, or just one person?

Your whole team. Free tier supports basic team access. Pro and Enterprise tiers include advanced collaboration—permissions, approval workflows, shared libraries. Agencies managing multiple clients get separate workspaces per client with role-based access.

What happens to our data if you shut down?

Your GIF library, usage history, and performance data export anytime in CSV and JSON formats. We have 99.99% uptime SLA and automated redundancy. Enterprise customers get additional guarantees, quarterly backup audits, and disaster recovery testing. Zero lock-in.
