Transactional email on Amazon SES

Mail that
gets there.

Sendboy is an email API for the messages your product can’t lose: receipts, sign-in codes, password resets. One request sends it. Every delivery, bounce and complaint comes back to you.

A simple API.

One authenticated POST sends an email, and every resource works the same way: domains, API keys, webhooks, batch and scheduled sends. Coming from Resend? The request and response are the same, so you change the base URL and the key.

After you hit send.

  1. Accepted

    We check the key, the sender domain, your plan and the suppression list, and answer right away.

  2. Queued

    Your email waits its turn under the Amazon SES rate limit, so a burst never gets throttled.

  3. Sent

    Signed with your domain’s DKIM key and handed to Amazon SES.

  4. Delivered, or not

    SES reports deliveries, bounces and complaints. We check the signature on every report before we act on it.

  5. Reported to you

    Each event goes to your webhook, signed, and is retried for 28 hours if your server is down.

Reputation, guarded.

Hard bounces and complaints go on a suppression list, so you never mail a dead address twice. Teams whose bounce or complaint rate climbs are paused before they drag down delivery for everyone else.

Five million letters a day.

That was New York’s tube post in 1926: put a letter in, and it came out where it was going. Sendboy is the same idea for email. It runs on Amazon SES and grows by adding workers, not by being rebuilt.
