Oveyon

For AI agents

Give your agent a real email address. Out by API. In by webhook.

Oveyon is transactional email infrastructure with both directions exposed as plain HTTP. One POST sends. One signed webhook delivers whatever comes back. No IMAP to poll, no browser to drive, no shared inbox to babysit — an address the agent owns, on a domain you control.

01 · The loop

An agent that can write and be written to.

Most “email for agents” stops at sending. The interesting work starts when the answer comes back: a customer replies, a vendor sends the invoice, another agent asks a question. Oveyon closes the loop in the same account — your domain's MX points at us, a route decides which addresses exist, and each message reaches your endpoint as a signed event with the reply headers intact.

Because inReplyTo and messageIdHeader travel with the event, and because you can set your own In-Reply-To and References headers on POST /v1/send, the agent can hold a real conversation: threads stay threads in the recipient's mailbox, and your side keeps a stable id per delivery to deduplicate retries.

What the agent gets, concretely:

  • An identityagent@yourdomain.com, authenticated with SPF, DKIM and DMARC on your domain, not a shared pool address.
  • A memory — every received message is stored and readable later by API (GET /v1/inbound/{uid}, /content, /raw, /attachments/{n}), not only at webhook time.
  • Feedbackaccepted, delivered, bounced, complained come back as signed events, so the agent knows what happened instead of assuming.
  • A brake — suppressions, send policies and rate limits are enforced by the platform at send time, not by the prompt.

02 · Outbound

Sending is one request. Everything else is a parameter.

Authenticate with a Bearer API key. Send JSON. Get a 202 Accepted with a message id. The same request accepts cc and bcc, custom headers, up to 20 attachments (15 MB total, base64), a templateId with data and an optional pinned version, and an idempotencyKey — the same key never produces two messages, which is exactly what a retrying agent needs.

Not sure yet? Add X-Oveyon-Sandbox: 1. The message is accepted, validated and frozen; nothing is delivered. The agent can exercise the whole path before it earns the right to send for real.

03 · Inbound

Receiving is one webhook. Verified once, signed every time.

Every email you receive can be delivered to

  • Another email address
  • Slack
  • Telegram
  • Signed webhook
  • Discordcoming soon

Point your domain's MX at Oveyon and create routes: named addresses (agent@, invoices@) or a catch-all. Attach a channel to each route. For an agent, the channel is a webhook, in one of three modes: summary (metadata only), full (text and HTML), or full+attachments (files inline, with size caps and a URL for anything larger).

A webhook URL is never saved blindly. Oveyon first POSTs a url_verification challenge — with the same three signature headers as real deliveries — and only keeps the URL if your endpoint echoes the challenge with a 2xx. Then every delivery carries x-oveyon-event, x-oveyon-timestamp and x-oveyon-signature. The timestamp is inside the signed material, so a captured POST cannot be replayed with a fresh stamp.

The brakes live in the platform, not in the prompt.

An agent that can send email can also send the wrong email, to the wrong list, at the wrong pace. These are the controls that hold even when the model is wrong.

Suppressions with compliance built in

Bounced, complained, unsubscribed — each with scope and origin. A complaint cannot be deleted: not by the dashboard, not by the API, not by re-adding the domain. GET /v1/suppressions shows the list; the agent cannot send around it.

Send policies, evaluated at send time

Block a destination, allow only a list, force transactional. Rules run when the message is sent — not in a report afterwards — and a simulator (GET /v1/send-policies/decisions) answers “what would happen” before it happens.

Disposable-domain check

GET /v1/disposable?domain=… tells the agent whether an address belongs to a throwaway provider before it invests a message in it.

Rate limits that speak HTTP

Per-IP and per-account limits answer 429 with Retry-After; a suspended account answers 403 so your backoff does not retry in vain; a saturated system answers queue_full. The agent only needs one rule: back off with jitter on 429 and 503, fix the request on 400/422.

Warmup caps per domain

A new domain has a daily ceiling that grows with the days you actually sent. The agent cannot burn a fresh domain's reputation on day one — the platform paces it.

An audit trail that means it

Who did what, when, and what changed — API key, dashboard user or our own support — in a log you read and filter. When the agent is the actor, the trail says so.

05 · Also in the box

The parts an agent ends up needing anyway.

Templates with versions

POST /v1/templates, {{variables}} filled from data, publish to make a version current, and version on send to pin one. The agent renders nothing; it sends data.

NPS and CSAT surveys, inside the email

The score is the click: the recipient answers in the message, no form. POST /v1/surveys/{id}/send at the right moment; GET /v1/surveys/{id}/responses and the survey.response event bring the answers back to the agent.

Migration with a way back

Bring suppressions, domains and webhooks from SendGrid or Postmark — read-only, nothing is switched off at the source, per-domain cutover, one-click rollback.

Stats and message history

GET /v1/stats for the numbers, GET /v1/messages and /v1/messages/{uuid} for the outcome of every message per recipient.

SMTP too

Anything that speaks SMTP can use the same account and domain — useful for the legacy tool next to the agent.

Reputation as routine

SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT and ARF from the factory, not as extras. 100% on the NIC.br and Internet.nl email tests, measured on our own domain.

08 · Questions

Short answers.

Can one agent both send and receive with a single account?

Yes. Sending is POST /v1/send. Receiving is your domain's MX at Oveyon plus a route delivered to a signed webhook. Same account, same domain, same API key.

How does the agent know a reply arrived?

Oveyon POSTs an inbound.received event to your endpoint with the message, the content in the mode you chose, and three signature headers. The same message stays readable later by API.

Does it need IMAP, mailbox OAuth or browser automation?

No. Nothing to poll and no UI to drive: one HTTP request out, one HTTP request in.

How do I verify a webhook?

x-oveyon-signature is sha256= plus HMAC-SHA256 of the channel secret over timestamp + "." + rawBody. Reject if the timestamp is older than 300 s. A URL is only saved after answering a url_verification challenge.

Can I test without delivering anything?

Yes — X-Oveyon-Sandbox: 1. Accepted, validated, frozen, never delivered.

What stops the agent from spamming by mistake?

Suppressions that cannot be deleted, send policies at send time, disposable-domain check, rate limits with Retry-After, warmup caps and a full audit trail.

What does it cost?

Free: 1,000 emails a month, one domain, no card, never expires. Paid from $15 a month for 50,000.

Give the agent its address today.

A thousand emails a month, inbound included, no card on file. The domain is live in minutes; the webhook is verified before it is saved.
