Send Email from a Python AI Agent

The whole integration is one HTTPS call

No smtplib, no app passwords, no email.mime. Create an agent once, then send with the standard library of your choice:

import os, requests

API = "https://api.mails.ai/v1"
HEADERS = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['MAILS_API_KEY']}"}

# one-time: create the agent (it gets its own address)
requests.post(f"{API}/agents", headers=HEADERS, json={"name": "sarah"})

# send
requests.post(f"{API}/messages", headers=HEADERS, json={
    "agent": "sarah",
    "to": "user@example.com",
    "subject": "Your report is ready",
    "body_text": "Attached below — reply with questions, I read every message.",
})

Why not just use SMTP or a transactional API?

SMTP from a script means managing credentials, deliverability, and identity yourself — and most transactional APIs assume a human application, not an autonomous sender. Here the agent is the first-class object: it owns an address, builds its own sending reputation, and its inbound mail is parsed and scanned for prompt injection before your code ever reads it. Sending is $0.001 per message with no monthly minimum.
