Qartero

An IOL Inc. product

Email dispatch, kept on the record.

Qartero is a governed email-dispatch platform: campaigns route to the approvers you assign, nothing sends without sign-off, and every send gets honest, benchmarked reporting.

Access is by invitation — an administrator provisions each user, so you are set up when you book a demo. There is no public sign-up.

Where Qartero fits

Built for a handful of campaigns a year — not a hundred thousand a day.

High-volume blast tools optimize for sending as much as possible and reward vanity metrics. Qartero is for organizations that send a few carefully crafted campaigns a year to a known roster — and need configurable sign-off, an audit trail, and honest, benchmarked reporting instead of inflated numbers.

What Qartero does

Everything a governed send needs — and nothing that inflates it.

Approval you configure

Every campaign routes to the approvers you assign — nothing sends without sign-off. Access is role-based (admin, requester, approver), and every action lands in a tamper-resistant audit log.

Audience, snapshotted

Curate segments over your own roster. We snapshot the audience at send time so reports stay honest even as your data drifts, and suppressions and unsubscribes are tracked and honored automatically.

Compose & schedule

A rich composer with inline images and attachments. Send the moment a campaign is approved, or schedule it for a specific date and time.

Honest reporting

A 72-hour engagement window with industry-benchmarked verdicts, a per-provider delivery breakdown, cross-campaign analytics, and PDF export. No vanity metrics.

How it works

One campaign, from draft to benchmarked report.

  1. Compose

    A requester drafts the campaign, picks a segment, and adds any attachments — then fires a test send to check it end to end.

  2. Approve

    The campaign routes to the approvers you assigned. They review in-app and sign off — or send it back with a comment. Nothing goes out until they approve.

  3. Send

    Send on approval or schedule for later. Qartero snapshots the audience and dispatches to your roster — no contact list to keep in sync with a provider.

  4. Report

    After a 72-hour engagement window, Qartero produces a benchmarked report — delivery, opens, clicks, per-provider breakdown — ready to export as PDF.

Who it’s for

For organizations that send to a roster they know.

Associations & member bodies

Send to a known roster with the sign-off and audit trail your board expects.

Chambers & promotions boards

Segment by member type, keep every send accountable, and report honestly to stakeholders.

Co-ops

Curated, governed communication to your members — not a high-volume blast tool.

Institutional comms teams

For teams where every message needs review before it represents the organization.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What is governed email dispatch?

Governed email dispatch means every campaign passes through a defined approval and audit process before it sends. In Qartero, a campaign routes to the approvers you assign, cannot go out without sign-off, and records every action — submit, approve, schedule, send — in a tamper-resistant audit log.

How is Qartero different from Mailchimp or a normal email tool?

High-volume blast tools optimize for sending as much as possible and reward vanity metrics. Qartero is built for organizations that send a handful of carefully crafted campaigns a year to a known roster, and that need configurable sign-off, an audit trail, and honest, benchmarked reporting rather than inflated numbers.

Who can approve a campaign?

You assign the approvers per campaign, and it only sends once they have signed off. Access is role-based (admin, requester, approver), and the same person can hold more than one role if that fits how your team works.

How does Qartero keep reporting honest?

Qartero snapshots the audience at send time, so rates are measured against exactly who was mailed even as your roster changes. Reports use a 72-hour engagement window with industry-benchmarked verdicts and a per-email-provider delivery breakdown — no vanity metrics.

Can I schedule sends?

Yes. Once a campaign is approved, you can send it immediately or schedule it for a specific date and time.

Is there an audit trail?

Every action on a campaign — submission, approval, rejection, scheduling, and sending — is written to a tamper-resistant audit log that admins can search.

How do people get access to Qartero?

Qartero uses strict provisioning: an administrator creates each user before they can sign in, and access is by magic link. There is no public self-serve signup. To get started, book a demo and we will set your organization up.

Who is Qartero for?

Associations, chambers, promotions boards, co-ops, and institutional communications teams — any organization that sends to a known roster and needs configurable approval, an audit trail, and honest reporting.
