Agents scale, Email doesn't

Previously, we were building email agents but they never quite worked the way we wanted them to. After talking to devs for months, we realized our agents were never the problem, it was their email infrastructure.

The problems with email today

  • Inboxes are expensive: Typical Workspace and Outlooks inboxes cost around $14 on average.
  • Provisioning is manual: There isn't a simple API that can spin up inboxes across customers and use cases.
  • Hard send limits and rate limits: Agents are designed to scale workflows, but email providers add restrictive rate/send limits that hinder their throughput.
  • "Email APIs" are not inboxes: Agents are only as good as their context - for best performance, it needs a real inbox with threads and storage, not just a webhook.

What AgentMail is

Email for AI agents. AgentMail is an API which makes it easy to create inboxes programmatically. With AgentMail, your agent can now have its own inbox to send, receive, and remember messages from. Here are the highlights

  1. Provision at scale. Create inboxes instantly via API calls.
  2. Built for throughput. Flexible rate and send limits.
  3. Deliverability by default. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are handled out the box for you.
  4. Persistent, queryable history. Threads, attachments, and events are durable and accessible, so agents can remember context and hand off seamlessly.

Example Use Cases for AgentMail

You're testing a fleet of voice agents that confirm appointments and send recaps, and you need one address per agent, customer, or even session.

You want a sales agent to own an email thread with a prospect, retain the entire conversation history, and escalate to a human without losing context.

You need to spin up multiple inboxes for workflows like verification, sourcing, or follow‑ups.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

AgentMail is an API that makes it easy to create email inboxes programmatically for AI agents. It allows agents to send, receive, and remember messages from their own dedicated inboxes.

Traditional inboxes like Google Workspace or Outlook cost around $14 on average, require manual provisioning, and impose restrictive rate and send limits that prevent agents from scaling effectively.

AgentMail automatically configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC out of the box, so you do not need to manage those records yourself.

Common use cases include giving voice agents their own inboxes for appointment confirmations, letting sales agents own full email threads with prospects, and spinning up multiple inboxes for workflows like verification, sourcing, or follow-ups.

Yes, threads, attachments, and events are stored durably and remain queryable, so agents can retain context and hand off to humans without losing any conversation history.
