Company and People
Looking for a way of connecting with your subscribers by automating multiple RSS feeds in your email newsletters? You’ve come to the right place.
Our mission is to support, delight and connect content producers and their subscribers.
Since 2016 we’ve been supporting content producers around the world by helping them send automated multi-rss email campaigns to their subscribers. We’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most recognised brands and content producers automating 2 RSS feeds right up to clients who run hundreds of campaigns with thousands of RSS feeds.
Get email right, and we know it can be a hugely powerful medium. But you have to delight your subscribers. Which is why, with FlipRSS, you’re able to let your subscribers choose the feeds they are interested in. What could be better than an automated and personalised email newsletter!? FlipRSS saves you hours of time every day/week/month and each of your subscribers receives an email customised specifically for them based on their preferences.
As a devoted content producer, you’ll be well supported with FlipRSS. We are constantly talking with customers to understand their needs and continually developing our system with one eye on the future.
We’re a small team. Small enough to really care. We care about the quality of the product we produce, we care about the experience of every customer we have the privilege of working with, and we care about our impact.
It's a simple but highly engaging solution. Your subscribers choose what they're interested in and FlipRSS personalises the content they receive to ensure your email is a welcome addition to their inbox.
The latest release of FlipRSS, Maple, is our fourth major update and has seen the system re-written from the ground up. We’ve narrowed our focus from supporting multiple email service providers to just one - Mailchimp.
This has enabled us to deepen our integration with Mailchimp and deliver a more powerful solution at the same time as delivering a simplified customer experience. We're now officially a Mailchimp Partner and listed alongside other great integrations on the marketplace.
We’re here to do a great job of supporting, delighting and connecting you and your subscribers.
FlipRSS is a product of Red Robot Studios.
5% of every FlipRSS subscription is donated to saving sea turtles.
Our Team
We are a small team of dedicated industry professionals with direct and recent experience of being in our clients' shoes. We empathise with the challenges faced when satisfying business goals alongside subscriber and customer needs. We also know first-hand the issues our clients face in terms of their limited time and resources.
We believe you don't have to be big to make a significant difference. Small consistent acts have an amazing compound effect. This goes for our approach to FlipRSS and our role in the community. From day one we've committed to donating 5% of sales to the Oceanic Society. We have continually resisted the urge to grow the focus of the business beyond the core of what we do best. And in fact, when we've seen good growth we've done exactly the opposite and narrowed the focus of our business further to magnify our impact.

Andrew Gleave
Technical Co Founder
Andrew has over 20 years experience in software development, working for international clients and developing his own products, apps and communities. A full-stack developer, he has worked on all aspects of front-end and back-end system development. He aims to find a balance between technical delivery and customer experience and to produce sympathetic software. He has a deep love of learning and is always willing to jump in at the deep end.
On team walks, Andrew will be the person we turn to for tree and plant identification and is probably the only one of us who has consistently kept a sourdough starter alive.
We're lucky.
As a team, we not only share the same values and interests as each other, but our skillsets compliment each other. We count ourselves lucky to have worked together on a number of projects and initiatives, both for clients and for our own interests.
We all appreciate getting into the great outdoors, like a pint at the end of a good walk and value our time with our families and friends. Life is about working smarter - not longer. It's because of this, helping our customers save time and work smarter gives us a real buzz.
