Brevo

From $9/mo (contact-based, not send-based)

Formerly Sendinblue — an email and SMS platform known for pricing based on contacts sent to, not list size.

Summary

Brevo's contact-based (rather than list-size-based) pricing tends to undercut Mailchimp significantly for larger lists that don't email often, which is its main draw. Its automation builder is capable but less mature than Klaviyo's.
