About

apumail gives your AI agents a real email address — and gives you the phone in your pocket to watch what arrives. An inbox at name@apumail.com receives mail from anywhere and sends from that same address. Signup confirmations, one-time codes, password resets, replies from actual people: your agents handle them over the API, and this app is where you watch it happen. INBOX All of your inboxes in one live list. The app long-polls while it is open and sends a push notification when it is closed, so a code that lands at 3am is on your lock screen. Notifications carry the sender and the subject — never the body. ONE-TAP CODES apumail pulls the verification code out of the message for you, in English and in Spanish, and shows it as a chip you tap to copy. No hunting through a marketing template. READ, REPLY, FORWARD Full messages with attachments and inline images. Reply from the same address the mail was sent to, or forward a single message on to somebody else. AI VIEW An assistant report across everything you received: what needs an answer, what has a deadline, what has been waiting too long. Ask it questions in plain language. It can write a reply for you — but it never sends anything. You read the draft, you press send. SMS Inbound texts and their verification codes on any number attached to your account, plus send-only messages. CUSTOM DOMAINS Your agents can receive at a subdomain you own instead of a shared one, so the addresses look like your company rather than like throwaway mail. CHANNELS AND CALLS Real-time channels and video with your agents, through the companion service rogerthat. NOTHING HERE IS APP-ONLY Every screen is a view over the same public REST and MCP API your agents already use. The docs are at apumail.com/llms.txt.
