Notify is a minimal, developer-focused transactional email API. It’s built for product teams that need to send account and product-triggered emails—like password resets, verification links, receipts, and basic onboarding—without running their own mail infrastructure or adopting a full marketing platform.
What Notify is
- A small transactional email API – One main HTTPS send endpoint, domain verification, and basic delivery logs/webhooks. The design goal is to stay small and focused on transactional use cases. notify
- “Minimum email infrastructure” for developers – You write and own the HTML/templates; Notify handles sending, domain authentication (SPF/DKIM/DMARC), retries, and logging. notify
- API-only, no marketing suite – It deliberately avoids campaigns, automation builders, and complex template studios, so it doesn’t drift into marketing-cloud territory. notify
Typical use cases
- Password reset and magic-link emails
- Email verification / welcome messages
- Simple onboarding steps (e.g., “confirm your account”, “launch-day access”)
- Receipts and basic billing notifications
- High-signal product notifications (e.g., new follower, mention) where you want email, not a newsletter
What it’s not
- Not a full ESP or marketing platform (no campaign builder, segmentation, or complex automation). notify
- Not an email-validation or deliverability-testing suite; it’s primarily for sending and logging transactional mail. notify
In short, Notify is for teams that want a tiny, predictable “send + logs” layer for transactional email and are comfortable keeping templates and higher-level logic in their own codebase.
