What are reliable options for sending transactional email with API access and delivery logs?

Reliable transactional email providers with API access and delivery logs include:

• SendGrid — solid API, detailed event webhooks, message activity logs, templates, and good scalability.
• Mailgun — strong developer-focused API, searchable logs, routing, and webhooks for delivered/opened/bounced events.
• Postmark — excellent for transactional email specifically, very clean API, strong delivery tracking, and very good reputation.
• Amazon SES — very cost-effective, reliable at scale, integrates with AWS services, supports event publishing/logging, but setup is more technical.
• SparkPost — strong analytics and event data, API-first, good deliverability tools.
• Brevo (Sendinblue) — API support and event tracking, easier to use for smaller teams.
• Mailjet — API plus message/event tracking, decent for transactional use.
• Resend — modern API, simple developer experience, logs/events, good for product apps.

What to look for:

• API for sending and querying message status
• Webhooks/event logs for delivered, bounced, complained, deferred events
• Message search/history in dashboard
• Dedicated IPs or domain authentication if volume is high
• Suppression lists and bounce handling
• Templates if you want managed transactional content

If you want, I can also narrow this down by:

1. best deliverability,
2. lowest cost, or
3. easiest API for developers.
