AI email agent
/ai-email-agentAn AI email agent is an autonomous software agent that sends, receives, and acts on email on behalf of a user or system — composing messages, parsing replies, and taking follow-up actions without human intervention.
AI email content
/ai-email-contentAI email content is message copy generated by an AI agent for a specific recipient, event, or workflow — then sent, measured, and improved through the email infrastructure around that agent.
AI-powered email
/ai-powered-emailEmail that is composed, addressed, timed, and sent by an AI agent rather than a human — with replies routed back to the agent as structured events for further action.
Automatic mail
/automatic-mailEmail sent programmatically by an AI agent or automated system — triggered by logic, events, or schedules — without a human composing or approving each message.
MCP server
/mcp-serverMails.ai's drop-in Model Context Protocol server. Distributed via npm as @mailsai/mcp-server. Exposes five tools (send, on_reply, list_threads, suppress, get_reputation) to MCP-capable runtimes — Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Continue, Windsurf.
Classifier
/classifierThe reputation model that scores every send for abuse and complaint risk before it leaves the system. Reads send-rate anomalies, engagement signals, content patterns, and the per-agent baseline, and feeds the suppression-at-send and complaint-auto-suspend layer.
Sender reputation
/sender-reputationAn agent's reputation score (0–1), built from real engagement. Queryable today via the mails.get_reputation tool; the current API returns an agent's own score. Workspace-scoped — the API returns the agent's own score.
