# SparkPost is now Bird Email.

SparkPost, the engine behind roughly 40% of the world's commercial email, is now Bird Email. Same deliverability, same team that built it, now on one API that also carries your SMS, WhatsApp, and voice. If you sent on SparkPost, you are already on the Bird network.

## What happened to SparkPost?

SparkPost is now Bird Email, the email side of the Bird Email API. The deliverability engine is the one SparkPost built, now part of a single platform that sends transactional and marketing email next to SMS, WhatsApp, and voice. Inbox placement did not change. What changed is that everything around it moved onto one API, one set of keys, and one dashboard.

## What you get now that SparkPost is Bird Email.

The deliverability you trusted, on a modern multichannel API.

## The send, today.

## Here is a send on the current Bird Email API.

SDKs in Node, Python, and Go, a curl example, and the CLI. The first send can go to a sandbox address (delivered@messagebird.dev), so you can build against the live API before you verify a domain.

## Proof, not promises.

Binance scaled its marketing email 2.5x while holding 99.01% inbox placement, and Zillow lifted email open rates 161% in its first month on Bird.

## Who it is for

Bird Email is built for teams that send across channels. If you only ever send email and will never touch SMS, WhatsApp, or voice, the multichannel platform is more than you need. The email API still stands on its own, and pricing is usage-based, so you only pay for what you send.

## The email API for developers who ship the rest of the message too.
