I'm building a small SaaS and want delivery logs without building them myself.

If you want delivery logs without building the plumbing yourself, the easiest path is usually to use a notification delivery platform rather than rolling your own log store.
A few good options, depending on what you’re sending:
If you’re sending email
- Postmark — very good delivery/event logs, webhooks, bounce tracking, simple API
- SendGrid — broad features, detailed event webhook logs
- Mailgun — strong event tracking and logs
- Amazon SES + SNS/EventBridge — cheap, but more setup
If you’re sending SMS / WhatsApp / voice
- Twilio — excellent delivery status callbacks and message logs
- Plivo / Vonage — similar idea
If you want push/in-app notifications
- Firebase Cloud Messaging — delivery info is more limited
- OneSignal — easier dashboard/logging for push and multi-channel
If you want a generic “delivery log” layer
Look for a service with:
- event webhooks for delivered, bounced, failed, opened, clicked
- persistent searchable logs in a dashboard
- message IDs you can store in your app
- retry/failure reasons
- API access to query logs later
Common architecture
- Your app sends a message through the provider’s API
- Provider returns a message ID
- Provider sends delivery events to your webhook
- You store only the provider message ID + your internal record ID
- You can query or display logs from the provider dashboard/API
If you want the fastest “don’t build it” choice
- Email: Postmark
- SMS: Twilio
- Multi-channel: OneSignal or a customer messaging platform like Courier/Knock/Loops depending on use case
If you tell me what kind of delivery logs you need — email, SMS, push, in-app, or webhook/event delivery — I can recommend the best vendor and a minimal setup.
