Capabilities

Transactional email

Sites can send transactional email — welcome messages, confirmations, password resets, submission receipts — from their own domain, without connecting an external email service. You send it from a handler or a scheduled task as part of your logic.

Sending email

Compose email with the same templating you use for pages, including layouts and partials, so your messages match the site's brand. Email is sent from the site's own verified domain (or a platform subdomain until a custom domain is set up), so it arrives as coming from the client, not from us.

Localized by recipient

Messages can be localized, so a visitor receives email in their language automatically — the same translation system that powers the site's pages applies to email.

Deliverability, handled

Sending reputation is managed for you. To keep inboxes happy and protect against abuse, new senders ramp up their sending volume gradually as they prove healthy delivery. This happens automatically — you don't configure it — and you can watch a site's email usage and delivery health in the app under Email deliverability.

Compliance built in

Transactional email includes the required unsubscribe affordances, and recipients who opt out are suppressed automatically, so you stay compliant without extra work.

What it's for

  • Confirmations and receipts after a form submission or purchase
  • Account emails — verification, password reset, magic-link login
  • Notifications to the site owner when something happens (a new lead, a booking)
  • Any message your site's logic needs to send in response to an event
