Products that do what End-to-end monitoring of email sending systems does
I built wasitsent.com to alert you when automated emails fail to send. It’s built for DevOps, Marketing Ops, and RevOps teams or anyone else responsible for sending email. I am an engineer and engineering leader with over 20 years of experience building and overseeing SaaS applications. This tool solves a pain point that previously required custom-coded solutions. I built [wasitsent.com](http://wasitsent.com/) because recently, two of my customers complained that their emails stopped sending and it caused a major headache for their business. I've faced this problem myself…

Hi all! Excited to share cc.dev after months of work and refinement. The idea for this product came from trying to do email marketing for my side project, CubeDesk, a site where Rubik's Cube enthusiasts can time themselves, race with one another, train algorithms — it's a fun niche! With over 40k users, sending even a single campaign was becoming expensive with MailChimp. I knew AWS SES would be much cheaper, but it’s just an API with none of the other necessities you need for a robust email marketing platform. Beyond cost, I was also frustrated with having to make sure my database was…

Hi all! Excited to share rss2newsletter after completing dev work for the initial release. The idea for this project came out of necessity, as I wanted to share my articles via email newsletter. I was looking for a super minimal, lightweight, and open source solution, and when none existed, I decided to create one. For any sizable number of email recipients, a popular platform like Mailchimp will easily cost you hundreds or even thousands per month in per-contact fees. rss2newsletter, on the other hand, allows you to use Amazon SES, so you can reach your audience at pennies on the dollar.…

Hi all, I've posted a few times here about Maildown, a startup that I've been trying to validate lately. Due to lack of time to focus on this, I've taken the decision to abandon the project as a startup, but to make it available as an open source solution instead. The (still very basic) github repository is here: https://github.com/chris104957/maildown Maildown now exists as a simple CLI wrapper for Amazon SES which bakes in Markdown and styling support, making it much easier to get transactional mails up and running in any project Thanks for looking, Chris

Hi HN :) really excited to share this with you. The one thing AI reliably does is generate noise. Half the tools I see launch are just machines for producing more noise across more channels. And people are starting to see this in the form of emails in their inboxes as spam filters are struggling. There used to be a useful signal in email: the effort a sender put into customizing a message was a rough proxy for how relevant it actually was. AI killed that. Now it's customized slop with the appearance of effort with none of the cost. It is painful that the open internet / open channels…

I'm the founder of AhaSend. We've built a transactional email service specifically for developers, with a Pay-As-You-Go pricing model ($0.50 per 1,000 emails) and up to 70% volume discount for platform partners. While there are many ESPs out there, we focused heavily on the Developer Experience to solve the pain of building and testing email flows: * The CLI: Heavily inspired by the Stripe CLI, we built a tool that lets you develop and debug locally. You can listen to webhooks, trigger events, manage your domains, and send / list / debug messages directly from your terminal. * True…

Hey HN, I was tired of writing HTML emails and one day was going through reddit specifically searching for people who hated writing HTML emails and heard a lot of complaints from solopreneurs and marketers as this is a very boring task and many marketers and solo founders have much more important tasks to take care off. So I decided to build HTML email to solve this. My friends have already saved hours using this product. This is my 11th product and I think this solves a problem many folks are struggling with. Feel free to share your views.

Hey HN, I built this tool a while ago, and it looks like it's finally getting some traction lately -- wanted to post it up again here for anyone who's looking for a dead simple solution for webhooks that email you. For those who say new products are hard to trust ("you never know how long they'll be around!") -- this one has been casually running for just over 13 months now! https://webhooked.email
