About this template

A release email for a software team that ships often and wants each update to feel like news. It suits project tools, editors, design apps and any product with a public changelog.

The header is a small wordmark with the version number on the right in the accent color. A purple label says what this is, and a bold two line headline names the main features. One short paragraph explains the release, then a large photo of someone at work gives the email a human feel.

Three cards follow side by side, each with a small colored icon, a feature name and a few lines on what it does. A purple button opens the full changelog. A short list under a small label covers the smaller fixes, and a black band at the end teases what ships next month with a link to the roadmap.

The structure follows a modern designer launch template. Name features the way your users talk about them, keep each card to two sentences, and only tease what you are sure will ship.
