Hello Sumo-lings! CardClan returns to AppSumo with a major AI upgrade built after three years of real-world use by 2,000+ solopreneurs and businesses for their email engagements. The team spent the past month heads-down to ship AI message generation, AI cover generation, and context-aware AI personalization that automate email card workflows at scale. A limited run of a few thousand lifetime licenses is reserved exclusively for the AppSumo community—this momentum wouldn’t be possible without the support of Sumo-lings reading this.

Why we're back: to give the community a faster, more personal alternative to generic mass emails.

What changed since the previous campaign: prompt-driven covers, AI copy, and personalization that reads like 1:1 notes—now for hundreds at once.

What this campaign aims to achieve: put human-feeling outreach on autopilot, gather feedback from Sumo-lings, and co-build the next wave of features together.

Hey Sumo-Family - Nice to meet you after 4 long years, we previously had a successful launch when I was at ContentStudio, and now it’s leading SaaS in the social media marketing industry.

This is Adil - Co-Founder and CMO at CardClan, which I, along with 13 full-time people, found in October 2020. We have 110 customers already using the platform for their employees and customer-facing teams. ABSOLUTELY love the feedback we are receiving.

A quick brief on our background, I’ve led/worked with the customer-facing teams since 2009 and have spoken to over 10k businesses for different products and services, was kinda tired of communicating via automated closed-ended emails hence I tried CardClan idea using Canva back in the years when I was running my agency and my responses went drastically up and my customers and team members treated it as a wholly unique experience. That moment made me hire a team to build a SaaS model.

Here’s what CardClan has become now.

- A tool that can replace email communication via digital cards ( CRM Integration will be out soon)

- A platform where you can integrate your customer-facing teams to have a segregated list of clients to send engaging card messages.

- A dashboard where you can see how people are reacting to your cards and to the messages you added inside ( Will be out soon) https://cardclan.io/roadmap/

- A way to send soft meeting reminders, followups using Cards

- A Robust workspace where you can schedule overwhelming cards to recognize your employees and make them feel included, can be used by all team members

- A tactic to mitigate the risk of non-payment and billing-due scenarios, for sales teams

- An Ecosystem where you have top-tier customers, best teams to communicate and track (analytics will be there shortly) outcomes.

Taking the great relationship with the AppSumo team, we are willing to give this away as one-off price points with all features we are working on, Included,

We are going to be next Lemlist and ContentStdio soon, but Sumo-lings will always be closer to our hearts,

See you all inside! And let’s grow together! Sending blessings your way!
