Introduction
What is AgentMail?
AgentMail is an API platform for giving AI agents their own inboxes to send, recieve, and act upon emails. We handle the infrastructure so can focus on building email agents.
Email agents can:
- Have conversations with users in their inboxes
- Automate email-based workflows for enterprises
- Authenticate with third party applications
- Act as first-class users on the internet
The Problem with Traditional Email
Exisiting email infrastructure was built for humans. Legacy providers such as Gmail and Outlook have several limitations for agentic use cases:
Legacy providers lack API support for creating new inboxes on-demand.
They charge monthly subscriptions per inbox($12/inbox/month !!), which is costly for agents.
They impose restrictive rate and sending limits not suitable for automation.
Overall, they offer a poor developer experience for building on top of email. The Gmail API sucks!
