Bento

Bento combines email, SMS, and CRM into a unified marketing automation platform powered by an AI assistant called Tanuki. Instead of clicking through a builder interface, you describe what you want in plain English and Tanuki handles the automation setup. The platform stores customer data and manages both email and SMS campaigns from one dashboard.

Bento works well for founders and small marketing teams who want marketing automation but find traditional builders intimidating or time-consuming. The AI-first approach appeals to users comfortable with natural language commands and looking to automate customer journeys quickly without learning platform-specific syntax.
