Pop the Lead vs Postscript
A Postscript popup alternative
made for design and testing
Postscript is great at SMS — popups aren't its main act. Pop the Lead is a dedicated popup builder you can run alongside Postscript, with a real visual editor, multivariate testing, and AI optimization on your real conversion data.

Pricing that makes sense
Pay for popup traffic, not your whole contact list
Free for 500 impressions a month. $29/mo for unlimited popups and 50k impressions. No surprise tier upgrades because your email list grew.
No — Pop the Lead handles only the popup. New subscribers are pushed into Postscript via webhook, so your SMS automations keep firing exactly as they do today.
Postscript's popup is a SMS-capture feature, not a design surface. A dedicated tool gives you a true visual builder, unlimited variant testing, and AI-driven optimization that an SMS platform won't prioritize.
