Overview

SendBunny is an AWS-native, self-hosted email platform for startups and developers who want transactional and marketing email without another recurring ESP bill.

Deploy it into your own AWS account and use Amazon SES for delivery. SendBunny gives you transactional APIs, campaigns, unlimited contacts, templates, analytics, suppressions, multiple sending domains, a team inbox, and MCP support for AI agents.

It is built for teams already using AWS or SES, or those looking for an alternative to Resend, SendGrid, Mailgun, Sendy, Mailchimp, and similar hosted email platforms.

The email platform you own - transactional & marketing, on your AWS.

Who is it for?

Startups, Founders, Developers, Marketers, Enterprises, teams already using AWS or Amazon SES.

Problem

Email platforms can become expensive as contact lists grow, create vendor lock-in, and leave startups exposed to account suspensions or changing platform rules. Raw Amazon SES is cheaper and gives more control, but teams then have to build the entire email layer themselves campaigns, contacts, templates, analytics, suppressions, domains, and tooling.

Solution

SendBunny gives AWS startups the missing product layer around Amazon SES. It deploys into their own AWS account, combines transactional and marketing email, along with MCP, keeps customer data under their control, and removes per-contact platform pricing and vendor lock in.

What makes it unique

Unlike hosted ESPs, SendBunny runs inside your AWS account. You get transactional + marketing email, unlimited contacts, MCP support, and a one-time $199 license while keeping control of your infrastructure and data.
