Why teams switch

Eight things no other
email API ships.

Every feature below is included on every paid plan. Comparable tooling assembled from other vendors runs into the hundreds per month.

01Type-safe · SHIPPED

Compile-time email contracts

Your IDE catches missing variables before deploy.

Live in stacksender/define. Declare each email's variable shape once with defineEmail<{...}>(). Missing or typo'd fields fail at the TypeScript boundary; CI rejects the PR. The only email provider with end-to-end compile-time safety.

02Local-first · SHIPPED

Real localhost dev inbox

npx ep dev — every send appears in a local mailbox.

Live in npx ep dev. Boots a localhost mailbox at port 8025 with a polished dark-mode UI. Set EP_DEV_INBOX_URL and the SDK auto-routes — staging never leaks an email to real recipients again.

03Branch sandboxes · SHIPPED

An API key per git branch

Every PR gets its own isolated environment.

Live at POST /api/v1/sandboxes. CI calls our endpoint with a branch name; we return a key prefixed re_sbx_ that bypasses billing, ignores production suppressions, and auto-revokes when the branch is deleted. Idempotent — same branch gets the same key on retries.

04Inbox testing · SHIPPED

Real placement tests, included

Seed accounts at every major provider. No third-party tool.

Live in /dashboard/placement. Submit a subject, we fan out to Gmail / Outlook / Apple / Yahoo / Proton seed mailboxes and return placement (Inbox · Updates · Promotions · Spam) plus a 0–100 score in seconds. Free tier: 2/mo · Pro: 10/mo · Scale: 50/mo.

05AI advisor · SHIPPED

Pre-send deliverability review

Spam score, accessibility, dark-mode, mobile — in one report.

Live now in the template editor. Eight deterministic checks plus optional GPT-4o-mini suggestions: spam triggers, Flesch reading level, alt-text coverage, link density, mobile rendering, dark-mode pitfalls, plain-text fallback, and CAN-SPAM unsubscribe compliance. Free track works without any AI key.

06Cost control · SHIPPED

Hard caps & spend forecasting

Set a monthly limit. We pause before you blow it.

Live now in Billing. Set a hard monthly USD cap with 50/75/90% email alerts and automatic pause-at-limit — sends return 402 cost_cap_reached until the next period. The only email API that won't let your invoice surprise you.

07Granular opt-out · SHIPPED

Categorical unsubscribe

Recipients pick what they want, not just all-or-nothing.

Live now in Settings → Preferences. Define your own categories (receipts, digest, marketing) and recipients choose per category from a hosted preference center. Tag any send with category: "slug" and we filter opt-outs at the API layer.

08Health score · SHIPPED

Daily domain health, one number

0–100 score, refreshed daily, drill into anything red.

Live now under Domains → Health. A single 0–100 score per sending domain built from DKIM/SPF/DMARC validity, 5-RBL cleanliness, complaint rate, bounce rate, and active-sender signals. Recomputed every 24 hours plus on-demand recheck.

Comparable vendors charge $300+/mo. We bundle all eight on Pro for $25/mo.

The platform

An API that gets out of your way.

The send endpoint is a thin layer over enterprise SMTP. Idempotency keys de-dupe replays. Detailed timing headers come back on every response so you can measure the path yourself.

01
Sending

Drop-in REST API

A familiar, well-documented HTTP surface. Send single, batch, or scheduled emails. Migrate from any provider in an afternoon.

02
Reliability

Hardened deliverability

Automatic DKIM, SPF, and DMARC. Bounce, complaint, and suppression handling. We protect your sender reputation.

03
ValidationDifferentiator

Verify before you send

Catch typos, disposable domains, and dead inboxes before they bounce. Risk-scored, cached MX lookups.

04
Templates

Author once, send forever

Reusable HTML templates with clean variable substitution. Versioned, previewable, testable from the dashboard.

05
Webhooks

Event stream you can trust

Signed HTTPS callbacks for delivered, opened, clicked, bounced, and complained events. Replay and retry-with-backoff.

06
Inbound

Receive and forward

Catch-all inbox routes and per-alias forwarding rules with SRS rewriting. Spin up support@ in two clicks.

Questions

Asked before signing up.

01What can you do that no one else does?+

Eight things, bundled in: end-to-end TypeScript-typed email schemas, a real localhost dev inbox via npx ep dev, automatic per-branch sandbox API keys, free inbox-placement testing across Gmail/Outlook/Yahoo/Apple/Proton, an AI pre-send deliverability advisor, hard monthly cost caps with auto-pause, categorical (not all-or-nothing) unsubscribe, and a daily 0-100 domain health score.

02How do you compare on price?+

We charge $0.10 per 1,000 emails on paid plans — typically 60-75% less than mainstream alternatives once you cross 50,000 emails per month. Free tier covers 3,000 / mo with no credit card.

03Can I migrate from another provider?+

Yes. Our REST shape is intentionally compatible with the conventions developers already know — base URL, send command, webhook payload. In most cases a search-and-replace is enough.

04How is deliverability handled?+

Enterprise SMTP infrastructure with automated DKIM key rotation, SPF & DMARC alignment, complaint feedback loops with major ISPs, and a shared-IP pool that's continuously warmed.

05What about marketing emails?+

We support both transactional (priced per email) and marketing (priced per contact). One unified dashboard, one API, one bill.

06Do you have an SLA?+

Not yet — we're a new platform and won't promise an uptime number we haven't measured. The /status page runs live health checks every 60 seconds. A formal SLA with credit-back is on the roadmap.
