Opensend: Self-hosted transactional email, newsletters, and campaigns with SES

OpenSend launched as a self-hosted platform for transactional email, newsletters, and campaigns built on Amazon SES, distributed via the GitHub repository R44VC0RP/opensend. The project uses Google-only sign-in with no passwords or teams, and exposes a single public API shared by its dashboard, SDK, and MCP server, with the opensend-js package installable from npm. Setup is offered through Docker or Cloudflare, or by pasting a guided prompt into a coding agent that reads api/README.md first.

Self-hosted transactional email, newsletters, and campaigns with Amazon SES. One installation, Google-only sign-in, and one public API shared by the dashboard, SDK, and MCP server. No passwords, teams, or browser-side API-secret setup.

Clone the repo:

git clone https://github.com/R44VC0RP/opensend.git
cd opensend

Open the repo in your coding agent and paste:

Help me set up OpenSend for my use case. Explore this repo and read
api/README.md first. Ask what I want to send, whether I prefer Docker
or Cloudflare, and what infrastructure I already have. Recommend the
simplest setup and explain the plan before making changes. Use my own
accounts and resources, keep secrets out of git, and start with simulated
sending. Ask before provisioning, deploying, or sending real email.

Prefer a manual setup? Start with Docker or Cloudflare. For development, see the local setup.

Install opensend-js from npm:

npm install opensend-js

See the SDK guide for usage examples, or connect an MCP client.
