Wraps – AWS SES made usable (templates, broadcasts, + automations)
Hey HN, I'm Jarod. Spent 2 years at SendGrid watching developers struggle with email infrastructure. Built Wraps to fix the SES setup problem. One command or package (CDK & Pulumi) deploys production email infra to your AWS account: `npx @wraps.dev/cli email init` ~30 seconds to configure SES, DKIM/SPF, event tracking, and sandbox exit. You own everything—we just provide the tooling. Key decisions: - BYOC: Deploys to your AWS, you pay AWS directly for sending - Zero credentials stored: OIDC federation only - Open source CLI/SDK: MIT licensed, free forever - No lock-in: Send…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hey HN, I'm Jarod. Spent 2 years at SendGrid watching developers struggle with email infrastructure. Built Wraps to fix the SES setup problem. One command or package (CDK & Pulumi) deploys production email infra to your AWS account: `npx @wraps.dev/cli email init` ~30 seconds to configure SES, DKIM/SPF, event tracking, and sandbox exit. You own everything—we just provide the tooling. Key decisions: - BYOC: Deploys to your AWS, you pay AWS directly for sending - Zero credentials stored: OIDC federation only - Open source CLI/SDK: MIT licensed, free forever - No lock-in: Send emails and SMS from YOUR AWS account. Dashboard with templates/analytics/broadcasts/automations is $10-149/month, tiered around the number of custom events you send. CLI and SDK are free. Tradeoffs: You need an AWS account. If you want zero AWS involvement, the managed services are solid. Happy to discuss architecture decisions or answer questions.

Hey HN: Kaveh here, the founder of https://www.usage.ai/ We help companies drive down AWS EC2 spend. Why? Because the way it's done now is a pain. DevOps and Software Engineers end up spending time managing costs rather than focusing on business problems. Previous to founding Usage, I worked on high-performance computing research at JP Morgan Chase and as a software engineer at a number of smaller startups. Here's how it works: We are typically brought in by a DevOps manager to cut AWS EC2 costs. The app is entirely self-service and the savings are generated automatically,…

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
