Mailchimp's built-in tools cover the basics, but the spam score checker workflow often benefits from a dedicated, browser-only preprocessor before uploading. Pre-send spam-trigger analysis catches issues before they impact your sender reputation. Free rule-based scoring combined with a Naive Bayes classifier identifies precisely which content triggers fire.

Why pre-process before uploading to Mailchimp

Mailchimp's Inbox Inspector requires a paid Standard plan ($20+/month). Free Mandrill/Standard users get no pre-send spam scoring.
