Three steps to production email.

Create an account, send your first email to a test address, then verify your own domain. Each step takes a few minutes.

From zero to sending in an afternoon.

Follow these three steps and you'll have email running on your own domain.

  1. 01

    Sign up for Bird.

    Create your account and get an API key. The free tier includes enough volume to build and test your integration before you commit.

  2. 02

    Send your first email.

    Send a test email to a sandbox address with one API call. No domain to verify yet, the sandbox lets you try sending, webhooks, and suppression immediately. Read the quickstart →

  3. 03

    Register your sending domain.

    Add your domain, publish the DNS records Bird generates, and every message is signed with DKIM, SPF, and DMARC. Most domains verify within minutes. Sending domains guide →
