The Problem
Why teams leave SendGrid (Twilio)
Volume-based pricing becomes expensive at scale
Marketing and API email are separate products
Post-Twilio acquisition price increases
Deliverability requires IP warming and management
Limited automation compared to marketing platforms
What We Build Instead
Your custom marketing tool
Transactional and marketing email from one platform
High-volume sending on your own infrastructure
Deliverability management with dedicated IPs
Email analytics with open, click, and conversion tracking
Template management and dynamic content
