Feature Launch Announcement Email — New Release

A feature launch announcement email with a rasterized split-screen hero — the feature name and copy left, a shadowed screenshot plate right — and three benefit rows below.

The prompt

Two ways to build this email in plain language. The fastest is Temway's in-editor assistant — open the chat drawer in the email editor and paste the recipe below. Or connect Claude or ChatGPT via Temway's MCP and paste it there; the agent builds the email step by step. Either way, adapt the copy and colors to your brand.

  • An email is a top-to-bottom stack of blocks — the recipe follows that order.
  • A [layout] step becomes a single image (great for heroes); everything else stays live text and links.
  • Theme the footer to match — the recipe's last step does exactly that.

Want this exact email? Click Use this template below to clone it into your workspace, then ask the in-editor assistant to rebrand it. Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share NpEVXub1yDFZfAHHdT4z_ and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

You shipped something you’re proud of, and this email makes it feel like an event. A split-screen hero pairs the feature name with a screenshot of it in action, then three stacked benefit highlights spell out why it matters, and a single purple button sends readers straight in to try it.

Make it yours

  1. Swap the feature name and the three benefit title/summary pairs for your real launch.
  2. Update the availability note to match your actual plan tiers.
  3. Recolor the purple accent to your brand — keep one accent color across hero, benefit leads, and button.

About announcements email templates

An announcement earns its own send when it's time-sensitive or significant enough to need full attention on its own subject line — a launch, a leadership change, a funding round, or a policy update, rather than one more line in the next newsletter issue.

What kind of news deserves a standalone announcement email instead of a newsletter mention?

Anything time-sensitive or significant enough to need its own subject line and full attention — a launch, a leadership change, a funding round, or a policy update that changes how customers use your product.

How long should a product-update announcement be?

Long enough to explain what shipped and why it matters, short enough to read in under a minute — the templates below separate a short "what's new" summary from optional deeper detail below it.

How do I announce a leadership change without it feeling like a press release?

The new-CEO and leadership templates below lead with a short, human bio and a direct quote rather than a formal title-and-tenure rundown.

Should an announcement email include a call to action?

Not always — a policy update or leadership announcement can stand on its own, while a product-launch announcement should point to one clear next step, like trying the feature or booking a demo.
