Every OverSkill app can send emails right out of the box. Welcome messages when someone signs up. Confirmations when they place an order. Weekly summaries every Sunday morning.
You don't have to sign up for anything or paste in an account key. Just ask.
How to add email
In the chat, describe what you want the email to do. A few examples:
Email me whenever someone submits the contact form.
When a customer places an order, send them an order confirmation with their order details.
Every Monday morning, email me a summary of the new signups from the previous week.
The AI sets it up. You'll get back a quick preview (Here's what the email will look like — is this good?
) and confirmation that it's wired up.
What you can do with email
- Welcome messages — when users sign up
- Confirmation messages — when they take action
- Receipts — when they pay
- Notifications to you — when something important happens in your app
- Scheduled summaries — daily, weekly, monthly digests
- Forgot password / magic link — already handled if you have user sign-in turned on
What it looks like to your customer
Emails come from a friendly address that includes your app's name (e.g. [email protected]). They render cleanly on every email client — Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail.
If you want emails to come from your own address (like [email protected]), see Using your own email address
below.
Using your own email address
Connect an email provider with your own account: Resend, SendGrid or Postmark. You verify your domain with them, then ask the builder, for example Connect Resend and send emails from [email protected]
. See Sending email from your own custom domain.
Limits
To keep things working well for everyone, free apps using the default address can send up to 100 emails a day. If you need more, connect your own email provider (Resend, SendGrid or Postmark).
You'll see a clear warning in the editor if you're getting close to the cap.
What you should NOT send
Per our terms — no spam, no mass marketing to people who didn't sign up. Only emails your users actually expect.
