To start sending emails

Complete Platform

Send, schedule
& receive

Transactional emails, scheduled delivery, inboundwebhooks, and React templates — all self-hosted.

Features

Everything you need
for email infrastructure

Transactional Email

Send emails via a simple REST API powered by AWS SES with high deliverability out of the box.

Scheduled Sending

Schedule emails for future delivery and cancel or modify them anytime before they are sent.

Inbound Processing

Receive and process incoming emails via webhooks with full attachment and header parsing.

Email Templates

Create and manage reusable templates with dynamic variables built on top of React Email.

Team Workspaces

Collaborate with role-based access control to invite team members and manage permissions.

Self-Hostable

Deploy on your own infrastructure with Docker for full control over your data and email flow.

How It Works

Three steps to
start sending

01

Connect your AWS SES

Add your SES credentials in the dashboard. Posthawk handles the rest — SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configuration guides included.

02

Send via REST API

A single POST request to send transactional emails. Schedule for later, use templates, or send raw HTML.

03

Receive via webhooks

Configure inbound email processing. Posthawk parses incoming mail and forwards structured data to your webhook endpoint.

API Example
curl -X POST https://api.posthawk.dev/v1/send \  -H "Authorization: Bearer ck_live_..." \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{    "to": "user@example.com",    "subject": "Welcome aboard!",    "html": "<h1>Hello {{name}}</h1>",    "variables": { "name": "Alex" },    "scheduledAt": "2025-02-15T09:00:00Z"  }'

Testimonials

Loved by
developers

Posthawk replaced three different services for us. Sending, receiving, and scheduling all in one clean API.

Sarah Chen

CTO at Nextera Health

We migrated from SendGrid in a single weekend. Posthawk's API is simpler and we cut email costs by 80%.

M

Marcus Rivera

Lead Engineer at Stackwise

Inbound email processing is a game changer. We built our entire support ticket system on Posthawk webhooks.

Aisha Patel

An email platform that doesn't try to lock you in. We self-host with Docker and have full control over our data.

Jonas Eriksson

DevOps Lead at Cloudbase

Scheduled emails were always painful to implement. With Posthawk it was just a single API field. Incredible.

P

Priya Sharma

Full-Stack Developer at LaunchKit

React Email template support is brilliant. Our designers iterate on templates with hot reload and ship faster.
