AgentMail is an API-first email platform designed specifically for AI agents. Unlike traditional email providers (Gmail, Outlook), AgentMail provides programmatic inboxes, usage-based pricing, high-volume sending, and real-time webhooks.

Core Capabilities

• Programmatic Inboxes: Create and manage email addresses via API
• Send/Receive: Full email functionality with rich content support
• Real-time Events: Webhook notifications for incoming messages
• AI-Native Features: Semantic search, automatic labeling, structured data extraction
• No Rate Limits: Built for high-volume agent use

Quick Start

1. Create an account at console.agentmail.to
2. Generate API key in the console dashboard
3. Install Python SDK: pip install agentmail python-dotenv
4. Set environment variable: AGENTMAIL_API_KEY=your_key_here

Basic Operations

Create an Inbox

from agentmail import AgentMail

client = AgentMail(api_key=os.getenv("AGENTMAIL_API_KEY"))

# Create inbox with custom username
inbox = client.inboxes.create(
    username="spike-assistant",  # Creates [email protected]
    client_id="unique-identifier"  # Ensures idempotency
)
print(f"Created: {inbox.inbox_id}")

Send Email

client.inboxes.messages.send(
    inbox_id="[email protected]",
    to="[email protected]",
    subject="Task completed",
    text="The PDF rotation is finished. See attachment.",
    html="<p>The PDF rotation is finished. <strong>See attachment.</strong></p>",
    attachments=[{
        "filename": "rotated.pdf",
        "content": base64.b64encode(file_data).decode()
    }]
)

List Inboxes

inboxes = client.inboxes.list(limit=10)
for inbox in inboxes.inboxes:
    print(f"{inbox.inbox_id} - {inbox.display_name}")

Advanced Features

Webhooks for Real-Time Processing

Set up webhooks to respond to incoming emails immediately:

# Register webhook endpoint
webhook = client.webhooks.create(
    url="https://your-domain.com/webhook",
    client_id="email-processor"
)
