EMAIL API FOR AI AGENTS

Give your agent an address for the task.

One paid HTTP request creates a private inbox for seven days. Your agent receives mail, reads message bodies and attachments, and replies to an authenticated sender without opening a SaaS account.

TASKS

Use email inside an agent run.

Your agent can pass its address to a service, poll over HTTP, and keep the mailbox token in the same secret store as the rest of the run.

01

Verification mail

Receive a code or confirmation link when the other service permits automated and temporary addresses.

02

Files and receipts

Collect generated reports, invoices, raw MIME, and attachments without routing them through a personal inbox.

03

Support threads

Read a vendor response and send a reply tied to that inbound message. Replies are included, and the API cannot start a cold conversation.

HTTP FLOW

The API surface fits in one agent prompt.

  1. 01

    Create

    POST to /api/v1/inboxes. A Stripe MPP or x402 client handles the payment challenge and paid retry, then receives the address and bearer token.

  2. 02

    Read

    List and fetch messages with the bearer token. Parsed text, HTML, raw MIME, and attachment downloads are included.

  3. 03

    Reply or erase

    Reply to an authenticated inbound sender at no extra cost, or delete the inbox and revoke its token.
