Introduction

Introduction to Postscale

Postscale is a complete email infrastructure platform that combines transactional email delivery, inbound email processing, and privacy-focused masked emails in a single, unified API.

Why Postscale?

Building email functionality typically requires multiple services:

  • Sending: SendGrid, Postmark, or Mailgun for transactional delivery
  • Receiving: Custom SMTP servers or inbound parsing services
  • Privacy: Separate alias services like SimpleLogin or Firefox Relay

Postscale brings everything together in one platform with a single API, one dashboard, and one billing relationship.
