Beehiiv is a newsletter and media platform built specifically for growth — offering A/B testing, segmentation, referral programs, and a subscriber recommendation network that major newsletter platforms lack. Founded by former Morning Brew engineers, Beehiiv has become the platform of choice for serious newsletter operators including Scott's Cheap Flights, The Hustle contributors, and many top-tier creator economy publications. Unlike Substack, Beehiiv charges a flat fee rather than taking a percentage of subscription revenue, making it more economical as newsletters scale. Beehiiv publications serve all media through media.beehiiv.com and include beehiiv-specific JavaScript and class names in their markup. The web-hosted publication pages load the Beehiiv runtime and expose beehiiv-specific data attributes. Plans start at a free tier, with Growth plans from $42/month.
