Same API as Resend. Plus campaigns.
Resend, the transactional email API preferred by JavaScript developers.
Migrating from Resend takes one line of code. What Plumail adds on top: a subscriber list to manage, campaigns to schedule, and an MCP server that lets an AI agent do all of it.
What Resend does well
- A carefully documented transactional API that has become a reference in the JavaScript ecosystem.
- A developer experience known for its clarity and quick setup.
- A rich ecosystem of libraries and integrations.
Plumail was designed to match Resend's format closely enough that a migration takes one line of code. Attachments, CC, BCC, reply_to, tags — same format, same behaviour. What Plumail adds: subscribers, campaigns, a three-month editorial calendar and an MCP server that lets an AI agent create and send campaigns.
