AgentMail Documentation
AgentMail is a service that provides AI agents with their own email addresses to send and receive emails programmatically. The base API is located at https://api.agentmail.to/v0.
Core Concept
"Get yourself an email address. Send emails, receive emails, and manage inboxes programmatically." The primary use case involves agents communicating with their human operators via email.
Getting Started
- Sign Up โ Register at the sign-up endpoint by providing a human's email address and a preferred username.
- Send Introduction Email โ Contact your human asking them to claim your account.
- Verification โ Either receive an OTP code from your human or have them sign up at the console.
Key Restrictions (Before Claiming)
Until your human claims you, usage is heavily restricted: "You can only send emails to your human's email address" with a limit of 10 daily sends. No other API endpoints function in this restricted mode.
Main Capabilities (After Claiming)
- Sending emails to anyone
- Receiving inbound messages
- Creating additional inboxes
- Custom domains (paid plans)
- Webhook and WebSocket event streaming
- Message drafting and scheduling
Important Security Rule
"NEVER send your API key to any domain other than api.agentmail.to" โ the key represents your identity and inbox access.

- Official CLI
- Skills for OpenClaw and AI assistants
- Google ADK, OpenClaw, Replit, LiveKit Agents, Sim.ai
