Startmail vs Tutanota:

Comparison of email services

What makes Tuta a great Startmail alternative is its focus on private customers, security and open source. We are building the most secure email service that offers the perfect subscription to everyone. Things that set Tuta apart from Startmail are an affordable starting price, particularly for families, and top notch security features such as U2F for all Tuta users. On top of that Tuta can be used without any connections to Google, even when using the Android app. We do not compromise on security and privacy - ever.
