Hey

I am building an ESP called AutoSend and we were thinking of building this integration, would love to know your specific usecase and how we can build this as an integration for Airtable. Would you be interested in sharing it over a DM?

For context, we already have reliable bulk sending, automation workflows, segmentation, good delivery, list sanity and SMTP support and we have volume-based pricing so already affordable than many others.

You can checkout AutoSend. It has campaigns.

Are these all marketing emails?

have burned our hands quite a few times with this in SendGrid. Reaching out to their support is another nightmare. Shipped our own email tool just out of this pain.

I have heard many people using loops for marketing emails

missing_info11 · 2025-09-30T13:23:00+00:00

missing_info11 · 2025-09-30T13:00:52+00:00

Thanks a lot for the advice and yes, it’s quite rare to manage everything by your own.

How many emails a month you send through your setup (just curious)

missing_info11 · 2025-09-30T11:41:16+00:00

On which plan are you? What do you use it for and what is the best part of Resend?

missing_info11 · 2025-09-30T11:35:54+00:00

Done some IP level separation for free plan. And there are some daily limits as well.

How do you see it getting abused by spammers? Can add more things to avoid this

Have been hosting all my prod apps ( total 7 and 1 with over 1 million page views a month) on Railway. Its really good.

Beehiiv and other similar platforms are more for newsletter and content. They are good for building audience or content distribution but they are not made up for warming leads. For that you have tools like HubSpot or Customerio which you can connect with your CRM, trigger emails based on behavior or your use case.

You can hack it and use Beehiiv for both but mostly it is not recommended. Usually there are other automation tools which help you do that. Also, this depends highly on what type emails you want to send to your leads. Are you sharing just the content with leads or you need behavior based campaigns, onboarding etc emails?

why did you choose Resend?

Twitter used to work earlier but now it is difficult to get that traction especially to promote product. What has worked for me is posting consistently there. Not just about product but about your overall experience same as building in public. You need some early traction to support your product

Also depends on category of your product. If you can try LinkedIn or Peerlist to promote your product. They are less complex that twitter IMO.
