About the company

AgentMail is the email inbox API for AI agents. It gives agents their own email inboxes, like Gmail does for humans.

Unlike other email APIs, AgentMail provides fully-managed, persistent inboxes that handle parsing, threading, labeling, searching, and replying so agents get the same email experience as humans.

Email is critical to identity and communication on the internet. Much of the context that people use for their work exists within email. AgentMail enables AI agents to meet people where they work and use the internet like humans do.

Our team is from Optiver, Nvidia, and Accel and we are backed by Y Combinator, General Catalyst, Paul Graham, Paul Copplestone, and Karim Atiyeh.

Technology

Built on AWS, utilizing services including API Gateway, Lambda, Dynamo, S3, and SQS.

Infrastructure is configured entirely with Pulumi. Code is written entirely in Typescript.

We think deeply about system architecture as we are designing for a new class of users: AI agents.
