9ways your photo can move

Animated, your photo gets noticed where plain text blends into the inbox. Each design moves it a way of its own, then rests on the finished picture.

400pxanimated profile picture

The same motion as a 400px square to download, so your profile has the face your emails do.

Nine portraits, each arriving in one of the nine motions the designs offer (pills, wipe up, honeycomb, slant, sheen, stripes, oval, wipe across, reveal), and one of them again as a round profile picture 400 pixels across.

Moreclicks.

10calls to action to choose from

Promote an offer, book a meeting or send people to your site, in a banner under every email you send.

5social links on your card

Chosen from ten networks. Every icon is a link, and every click on one is counted.

The end of an email from Elise Hartwell of Wren & Harlow Realty: her animated signature with a banner under it reading "Open house this Sunday, 11 to 2", then "What is your home worth this spring?", then "Fresh on the market this week". Beside it, the ten social networks a signature can link to, with the five on her card marked.

Moreopportunities.

Your brand on every email

Quotes, confirmations, follow-ups: the mail you already send carries your face and your link, with no extra marketing email to write.

  1. One signature
  2. Every email you send
  3. In front of every reader

Twelve emails sent in a day by three agents at Wren & Harlow Realty (Elise Hartwell, Freya Lindqvist, Nora Ashby), to twelve different people about twelve different things. Every one of them ends in its sender's signature, and all three signatures are the same design in the firm's colours.

Change the banner.Not the signature.

Schedule an offer, an event or a launch. Every email shows whichever is live, with nothing to paste again, and you see what gets clicked.

The analytics page: total clicks, banner loads and click-through rate, a map of the countries clicks came from, and the links clicked most.
The campaigns list: four banners, one live, one scheduled, one paused and one ended, each with its dates and priority.

Frequently asked questions.

Answers to the questions people ask first.

Still have questions? Contact us

What is an animated email signature?

It is an ordinary email signature whose photo, logo or call to action moves. The motion is a small animated image sitting inside the same table markup every signature uses, so it plays in the recipient's inbox with nothing to install at their end.

Do animated email signatures work in Outlook?

Yes. Current Outlook for Microsoft 365 plays animated images. Older versions of Outlook on Windows, and any Windows machine with animation effects switched off, show only the first frame, so every animation is built with the finished picture as frame 0. Either way Outlook shows a complete signature rather than a blank one.

Which email clients and devices are supported?

Gmail, Outlook and Apple Mail on the desktop and on the phone, and anything else you can paste formatted text into, including most CRMs. A signature is nested tables with inline styles, the markup email clients have agreed on for twenty years, so it survives being forwarded and pasted around.

Do you track when someone opens my email?

No. Opens are never tracked and no pixel is ever added to your signature. Clicks on your signature's links are counted while link tracking is on, because a recipient chose to follow them, and you can switch that off on your dashboard at any time.

Will an animated signature get my email marked as spam?

An animated image is not a spam signal on its own, though nobody can promise where an email lands: spam filters judge the whole message and the reputation of the domain that sends it. What the signature adds is ordinary table markup and small hosted images, with no scripts, no web fonts and no tracking pixel. Every link is checked before it is sent, and what you type goes out as text.
