Marketing Technology · HubSpot Alternative · Self-Hosted · HIPAA-Compliant

A marketing technology stack tailored for your business and your budget. No tricks.

A fully HIPAA-compliant, self-hosted stack — analytics (PostHog), lifecycle email (Dittofeed), workflow automation (n8n), and CRM — at a fraction of what you're paying HubSpot or Marketo. Same capabilities. Every vendor in your current stack has a copy of your customer data in their terms of service. This one keeps your data on your infrastructure. You own everything. You could leave tomorrow. You just won't want to.

We build the stack. We hand over the keys. You own everything.

The typical martech agency builds your stack on their proprietary platform and holds the keys. We do the opposite. Every tool is open source. Every server runs on infrastructure you own. When we're done, your team has the documentation, the access credentials, and the training to run it themselves. Call us back for optimization, new campaigns, or vertical expansions — or run it solo. Either way, you own the stack, the data, and the freedom to leave without renegotiating a contract. No tricks. No lock-in. No “we need six weeks to get your data out.”

What makes this different

Your Vendor's ToS Is a Data Exposure You Haven't Audited

Every SaaS vendor in your stack — HubSpot, Mailchimp, Segment, Mixpanel — has terms of service granting them rights to “aggregate” or “anonymize” your customer data “to improve our products.” Increasingly, that means training AI models that serve your competitors. This stack doesn't. Your data stays on your infrastructure.

Your Current Stack Costs You 10× What It Should

HubSpot Marketing Hub Professional: $890/month base, $3,600 Enterprise — per portal, with per-seat add-ons that compound each year. A self-hosted equivalent stack — analytics, email automation, CRM, workflow — runs $260/month total infrastructure. The difference is margin you keep.

You Can Leave Us Tomorrow. You Just Won't Want To.

Every tool in the stack is open source. You own the deployment. No vendor lock-in. No per-seat pricing death spiral. No surprise rate increases. If you want to migrate away, it's a Docker image to a different host, not a six-month contract hostage scenario. But once your data is on infrastructure you control, you won't want to.

  • Event taxonomy design and implementation

The HubSpot alternative, self-hosted

HubSpot pricing scales faster than your marketing team. $890/month for Professional. $3,600/month for Enterprise. Per-portal, not per-company — which means multi-brand companies pay multiples. Every seat you add, every contact you add, every feature gate — the renewal letter grows. Our stack delivers equivalent capabilities (email automation, CRM, marketing analytics, landing pages, forms, workflows) for $260/month total infrastructure, with no per-seat pricing. Migration timeline: 2-4 weeks for a standard HubSpot → open-source transition. Zero data loss. Full BAA coverage for healthcare clients.

What the stack replaces

HubSpot Marketing Hub → Dittofeed (lifecycle email) + custom landing page stack
HubSpot CRM → open-source CRM on your infrastructure
Mixpanel / Amplitude → self-hosted PostHog
Segment → PostHog event pipeline + server-side tagging
Marketo → Dittofeed + n8n workflow automation
Salesforce Marketing Cloud → combination of above for B2B use cases

Frequently asked questions

What tools are in the stack?

Open source marketing analytics with heatmaps and session replay, lifecycle email automation with behavioral triggers, workflow orchestration for cross-system automation, and CRM — all self-hosted on infrastructure you control.

Is it really HIPAA compliant?

Yes. Self-hosted means your data never touches a third-party SaaS vendor’s servers. No BAA complications. No data processing agreements to negotiate. Your data stays on your infrastructure.

How does $260/month compare to HubSpot?

HubSpot Marketing Hub Professional starts at $890/month and scales to $3,600 for Enterprise — per portal, with per-seat add-ons. Our stack delivers equivalent capabilities at $260/month total, with no per-seat pricing and no vendor lock-in.

Can you migrate us off HubSpot or Marketo?

Yes. We migrate your contacts, workflows, email templates, and automation rules to the open source stack. Most migrations complete in 2-4 weeks with zero data loss.

Who manages the stack after setup?

You choose. We offer managed services at $2,000-8,000/month, or we can train your team to manage it. The tools are designed to be self-maintaining — automatic updates, automated backups, health monitoring built in.
