Ai Email No Human Interaction Needed

Quick Start

1. Get an API Key

text

POST /v1/api-key/create
Content-Type: application/json

{}

Returns { "api_key": "ak_..." } — save this, it's your only authentication.

2. Create a Mailbox

text

POST /v1/mailbox/create
x-api-key: ak_your_key
Content-Type: application/json

{}

Returns { "mailbox_id": "mbx_...", "email": "[e-mail]", "status": "active" }.

Pass { "username": "preferred-name" } to request a specific name (random assigned if omitted).

3. Use the Email

Sign up for any service using the email address. Then read incoming mail via API.

4. Read Messages

text

GET /v1/mailbox/{mailbox_id}/messages
x-api-key: ak_your_key

5. Wait for a Specific Email (Long-Poll)

text

GET /v1/mailbox/{mailbox_id}/wait?timeout=30&from=[e-mail]
x-api-key: ak_your_key

Hangs until a matching message arrives or timeout. Use this instead of polling.

6. Extract Verification Codes

text

GET /v1/mailbox/{mailbox_id}/codes
x-api-key: ak_your_key

Auto-extracts OTP codes, verification codes, and confirmation links.

Authentication

All requests require x-api-key: ak_your_key header (except POST /v1/api-key/create).

Alternative: Authorization: Bearer ak_your_key

3. Rate limit: 60 requests/minute.
4. Message retention: 30 days.
