Comparison
Mailsuite (formerly Mailtrack) is a capable email tracker, but its paid tiers cost more than $1.99/month and it only works on Gmail. Vidi tracks Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Outlook.com from one extension for $1.99/month as a limited launch price — and never stamps a signature on any plan, same as Mailsuite’s own paid tiers.
Both tools tell you when an email is opened. The differences are what you pay, which inboxes are covered, and whether a signature shows up on the free tier.
| Feature | Vidi | Mailsuite |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price | $1.99/month (limited launch price) | Free (with signature), paid tiers to remove it |
| Also works on Outlook.com & Yahoo Mail | Yes | Gmail-focused |
| Honest handling of automated opens | Yes — machine opens labelled, not faked | Reports raw opens |
| Signature added to your emails | None, on any plan | “Sent with Mailsuite” on the free plan; none on paid plans |
Vidi is $1.99/month with a 30-day money-back guarantee — a limited launch price that will rise later. Mailsuite’s paid tiers, where the free plan’s signature and feature limits go away, cost more.
Mailsuite is Gmail-focused. If some of your email lives in Outlook.com or Yahoo Mail, Vidi tracks those from the same extension too.
Vidi only turns the tick green on a genuine human open, and labels machine pre-fetches (like Apple Mail Privacy Protection) honestly rather than counting them as real reads — so you’re not misled. More in Apple Mail Privacy Protection and open tracking.
Free Mailsuite adds a “Sent with Mailsuite” signature to every email, which tells the person you’re chasing that you’re watching. Mailsuite removes this on its paid tiers, same as Vidi does by default — so if you’re already on a paid Mailsuite plan this isn’t a reason to switch, but if you’re on the free plan and don’t want to pay Mailsuite’s higher tier just to lose the signature, Vidi gets you there for less.
Mailsuite has a genuinely free plan, and if you don’t mind the signature or you’re already paying to remove it, it’s a reasonable choice — its paid tiers are just as signature-free as Vidi. Vidi’s edge is price and coverage: Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Outlook.com from one extension, for less than Mailsuite’s cheapest paid tier. If that’s what you’re after, try Vidi, with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can also compare the original Mailtrack alternative.
Vidi turns every important email into a clear grey-tick / green-tick answer — across Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Outlook.
