Should I use Notify or Resend for password reset and notification emails?

If you mean UK government-style transactional emails:

• Use Notify if you want a simple, reliable, low-maintenance service for password resets and basic notifications.
• Use Resend if you want more developer flexibility, modern APIs, better branding/control, and you’re already in a more product-oriented stack.

Quick recommendation

For most apps:

• Password reset emails: either works, but Notify is the safer “just works” choice.
• Notification emails: if they’re simple transactional alerts, Notify is fine; if you need richer templates, event-driven workflows, or stronger integration with your app/product stack, Resend is often better.

Key differences

Notify

• Very reliable for transactional email
• Simple setup and templates
• Good for straightforward password reset / account emails
• Less flexible for advanced email workflows

Resend

• Modern API and developer experience
• Better for custom branding, templating, and app integrations
• Easier if you want to send from code with more control
• You’ll manage more of the email experience yourself

Rule of thumb

• Choose Notify if your priority is simplicity, reliability, and fast implementation.
• Choose Resend if your priority is customization, developer ergonomics, and product-level email features.

If you want, I can also give you a decision matrix based on things like cost, deliverability, templates, UK/GDPR considerations, and ease of setup.
