Welcome to SendDock

SendDock is an email marketing platform designed for developers, with a BYO-SMTP (Bring Your Own SMTP) model that gives you total control over your sending without vendor lock-in.

What is SendDock?

SendDock allows you to:

📧 Send transactional and marketing emails via API or Dashboard
👥 Manage subscribers with flexible metadata
🎨 Create beautiful templates with our visual drag-and-drop editor
📊 Analyze your performance with open and click tracking
🔐 Use your own SMTP (AWS SES, Resend, Hostinger, etc.)
🚀 Scale without limits with predictable pricing

Why SendDock?

1. BYO-SMTP (Bring Your Own SMTP)

Unlike Mailchimp or SendGrid, we don't send emails from our servers.

✅ Advantages:

You use your own IP → better reputation
No vendor lock-in → change whenever you want
Predictable costs → we don't charge by volume
Total flexibility → multiple SMTP providers

2. Developer-First

The API is the main product, the Dashboard is just a GUI:

# Send an email in 2 lines
curl -X POST https://senddock.dev/api/v1/send \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sdk_..." \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "email": "user@example.com",
    "template": "welcome",
    "data": { "name": "John" }
  }'

Check out the API Documentation.

3. Fair Pricing

Monthly plans + lifetime packages model:

Plan	Price	Subscribers	Sends/month
Free	$0	300	1,200
Starter	$15/mo	5,000	40,000
Pro	$49/mo	20,000	200,000
Business	$99/mo	50,000	600,000

Need more sends one month? Buy additional packages that never expire:

+20,000 sends for $15 (one-time payment)
Never expire until you consume them
