How It Works

Your agent runs the loop. You review the results.

1

Agent signs up

POST /api/signup returns an API key in 2 seconds. We email you the activation link — start the 7-day trial and the key goes live.

2

Agent deploys domain

API call provisions the domain, creates mailboxes, auto-configures DKIM, SPF, and SSL.

3

Agent sends + tracks

Compose tracked emails via API. Open pixel and click tracking injected automatically.

4

Agent reports back

Fetch open/click data via API. Agent surfaces engagement insights in your workflow.

See It In Action

Your agent runs it in the terminal. You watch it land in the dashboard.

Real eib sessions against a live server — no mockups. Each clip ends in the same dashboard you get. Pick a feature below.

Domain + DNS in one command

Deploy a domain. One eib deploy provisions the mailserver, generates the DKIM key, and auto-writes every DNS record — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX — so mail lands in the inbox. Then it shows up as a healthy, SSL-verified domain in your dashboard.

Mailboxes & aliases. Full CRUD from the terminal: eib box create, eib alias create, eib boxes. Every mailbox and forwarding rule appears live in the Email view, with per-mailbox quotas and activity.

Tracked send. Send through your own domain with eib send — open and click tracking are injected automatically, no third-party ESP. eib analytics surfaces the engagement, and the dashboard charts the opens, clicks, and volume.

Signup & onboarding. eib signup returns an API key in seconds — gated until a human starts the 7-day trial. Nothing is charged during the trial; until it's activated every provisioning call returns the payment link, so an agent surfaces it but never spends on its own.

FAQ

Common questions

Mailchimp is for marketing newsletters and campaign blasts. EmailInABox is your actual email inbox — you@yourcompany.com — with built-in tracking. Think Gmail + Mailtrack in one platform, without the extension. You send real emails from your real address, and we tell you who opened them.
No. Open tracking, click analytics, and the engagement dashboard are all included with every mailbox for $5/month. No browser extension, no add-on subscription, no separate login.
When you compose and send an email from the dashboard, a tiny invisible tracking pixel is embedded and any links are routed through our click tracker. When the recipient opens the email or clicks a link, the event is recorded and visible in your Analytics dashboard. This is the same technique used by Mailtrack, Yesware, and HubSpot — built in at no extra charge. Tracking only applies to emails sent through the Compose & Track feature.
Yes. Connect with any IMAP/SMTP client — Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, your phone. Email tracking only works when you send from the dashboard Compose & Track feature, but your regular email works everywhere.
You pay $5/month for each email address that has its own inbox (a "mailbox"). Aliases like info@, support@, hello@ that forward to a real mailbox don't count — those are free and unlimited. So if you have 3 mailboxes (alice@, bob@, carol@) plus 5 aliases, you pay 3 × $5 = $15/mo.
Google Workspace charges $7/user/mo but bundles Docs, Sheets, Drive, Meet, and a dozen apps you may already use elsewhere (Notion, Slack, Dropbox). And it doesn't include email tracking — that's another $5-29/mo for Mailtrack, Yesware, or Mixmax. We do email hosting + analytics for $5/mailbox/mo. One tool instead of two, one bill instead of two.
Yes. Every domain gets SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configured automatically — the same standards Gmail and Microsoft use. We also enforce strict anti-spam policies and monitor IP reputation 24/7 to keep deliverability high for every customer.
Two ways to start free. The Free tier (1 domain, 3 mailboxes, 100 emails/day) needs no credit card — your agent can self-provision an API key in seconds. The Standard plan comes with a 7-day free trial (card required — this keeps spammers off our IPs and protects deliverability for everyone). Cancel anytime with no commitment.
Yes. You can use any IMAP migration tool to move your existing mail. Your email clients (Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, mobile) connect using standard IMAP/SMTP — just update server settings.
Mailtrack, Yesware, and Mixmax are tracking plugins that sit on top of Gmail — you still need to pay for email hosting separately ($7/mo for Google Workspace) and install a Chrome extension. EmailInABox includes both the email hosting AND the tracking in one platform for $5/mailbox/month. No extension, no separate subscription, no two dashboards, no two bills. A 10-person team saves $839-3,720/yr compared to Google + any of those trackers.
