I've been using Resend to power transactional emails in my SaaS and it's been refreshingly simple. Verification emails, password resets, welcome messages, match notifications — all going out reliably without me babysitting the deliverability.
What won me over: SMTP compatibility meant zero lock-in. I use nodemailer and just pointed it at Resend's SMTP server. No SDK migration, no rewriting templates — it just worked.
The dashboard is clean, logs are useful, and I've never had to debug a "why didn't this email send" situation. For a solo developer running a multi-language app with emails in 7 locales, that reliability is everything.
If you're building anything that sends email — skip the pain of configuring your own mail server and just use Resend.
whats the methodology to avoid landing in spam? and this is applicable for all sort of cold outbound emails?
Interesting, how does Resend avoid the spam folder?
Does it allow cold emailing or transactional and newsletters only ?
We have a Zap doing a bad version of this right now. What happens when an agent and a human both reply on the same thread? Who wins?
With agents in a shared inbox, a clear handoff to a person feels essential. It should be easy to see whether a thread is waiting on me or the agent.
