Overview
Revue was a newsletter platform founded in Amsterdam, Netherlands, in 2015, acquired by Twitter in 2021, helping creators turn social media followers into email newsletter subscribers. Revue offered newsletter editing, subscriber management, and paid subscriptions with deep Twitter/X integration.
Important: Revue was discontinued by X (Twitter) in 2023 — no new accounts can be created, and existing users must export data and migrate to other tools such as Buttondown, Kit, or Mailchimp. For platform selection, see the email marketing platform guide; this page belongs to the automation tool providers category.
