About Us

It's About

Experience

We've been building, deploying, and supporting high-performance MTAs for years, and one thing we've learned along the way is that large-volume sending traditionally relies on products with commercial licenses, proprietary products, and overworked support teams.

Our roots are in Open-Source, and we know from experience that an Open-Source business model is better for users, the product, and the community.

When we succeed, we should succeed as a community. That's our philosophy, and we're building around it every day. Join us and explore how Open-Source can fulfill your mission-critical email needs.
