|
InsForge Messaging sends transactional notifications from your project: receipts, digests, password-reset codes, notification roll-ups, anything you would otherwise wire SendGrid, Postmark, or Twilio in for. Email is the first channel; SMS and push are on the roadmap and will share the same API surface.
|
|
|
|
<Note>
|
|
**Just sending auth emails?** Magic links, verification codes, and password resets are wired into [Authentication](/core-concepts/authentication/overview) out of the box. You only need this product for transactional messages beyond auth.

## Features
|
|
|
|
### One API, every channel
|
|
|
|
Same `emails.send()` shape for email today, with SMS and push to follow when they land. Switching channels is a field change, not a rewrite.
|
|
|
|
### Managed delivery or bring your own
|
|
|
|
Send through InsForge Cloud (AWS SES for email today) for zero setup, or plug in your own provider when you need to control deliverability and sender reputation. See [Custom SMTP](/core-concepts/messaging/custom-smtp).
|
|
|
|
### Templates
|
|
|
|
Pick a template by name, pass the variables, and InsForge renders and sends. Templates are editable per project; the four auth templates (`email-verification-*`, `reset-password-*`) ship with sensible defaults.
|
|
|
|
### Delivery tracking
|
|
|
|
Send events (`accepted`, `delivered`, `bounced`, `complained`) are recorded per message. Query the audit table in Postgres, subscribe over webhooks, or watch the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
### Rate limits
|
|
|
|
Per-project and per-plan limits keep stray loops from melting deliverability. Configurable from the dashboard, enforced at the gateway.
|
|
|
|
