About

Receive any message as a webhook, send with one API — across unlimited domains and mailboxes, free. No mail server, no MX/SPF/DKIM/DMARC to rebuild for every launch. The email platform for developers, teams, and the agents they build.

Features

Problem
Inbound email requires polling, MIME parsing, and mail-server maintenance.
How it works
Parses every inbound message and POSTs clean JSON—including decoded bodies, headers, attachments, thread IDs, and authentication results—to a webhook.
Result
Developers can build inbound-email workflows from a signed, structured webhook payload.
Why
Applications can react to messages directly without operating an inbox polling pipeline.
Problem
Sending transactional mail across different stacks creates integration overhead.
How it works
Offers a REST send endpoint, official language SDKs, CLI, SMTP relay, and reply threading via inReplyTo.
Result
Teams can send transactional mail, replies, and broadcasts using the integration that fits their stack.
Why
A consistent sending interface works across modern applications and SMTP-only systems.
Problem
Each new product domain can create new mailbox and infrastructure work.
How it works
Supports unlimited domains and mailboxes, catch-all routing, and per-address routing to webhooks, forwarding, storage, or agents.
Result
Teams can create addresses for products, customers, tasks, and agents from one account.
Why
Domains and addresses can be provisioned as product, tenant, or agent boundaries without per-inbox setup.
Problem
Support, marketing, and engineering often work in disconnected email tools.
How it works
Provides a shared inbox where users can tag, assign, triage, and reply as addresses on a domain.
Result
Teams can manage domain email together without paying per address.
Why
A common inbox keeps operational email visible to the people who need to act on it.
Problem
AI agents need an email identity and a way to act on email safely.
How it works
Provides dedicated agent inboxes, a hosted MCP server, AI skills, scoped credentials, and optional auto-reply workflows for triage, tagging, escalation, and responses.
Result
Agents can autonomously handle workflows such as sign-ups, verification codes, and inbox responses.
Why
Agents can read, send, and reply to email through the same platform without custom email glue.
Problem
Campaigns can harm sender reputation through invalid recipients and missing compliance controls.
How it works
Offers templates, merge tags, lists and segments, pre-send validation, automatic unsubscribe handling, and suppression management.
Result
Marketers can send newsletters and campaigns to cleaner audiences with fewer avoidable bounces.
Why
List hygiene and compliance are built into the campaign workflow.
Problem
Email delivery authentication and routing are difficult to operate per domain.
How it works
Manages SPF, DKIM, and DMARC; uses warmed pools; and routes mail across Cloudflare, Amazon SES, Postmark, and other tier-1 networks.
Result
Customers can send authenticated mail from their domains without managing mail servers or IP warm-up.
Why
Authentication, reputation, and delivery-path management are handled as platform infrastructure.
