Schedule a send

Free

Write now, send later — attachments and all, and change your mind right up to the moment it goes.

Catch someone at the right moment instead of at midnight. Use the arrow beside Send to pick a time — a few sensible presets, or any date and time you like.

Attachments are supported within the size limits shown by the composer; Otto currently checks a 25 MiB total attachment limit before sending. Provider-specific upload paths and policies can impose further restrictions.

Otto uses provider drafts where supported and stores the scheduling information needed to execute the send. Depending on how the draft was created, a queued job can also contain message content or attachment data. A scheduled message is not yet a confirmed send.

Review scheduled work from Scheduled. Use the available edit, reschedule and cancel actions and check their final result. For provider-backed drafts, changes are read from the provider draft at send time; other queued payloads must be edited through Otto’s supported scheduling controls.

Already started a draft? Open it and it offers the same Send-later choice.
