Developers using services like Resend find transactional emails still route to spam folders even after completing domain verification. This undermines user onboarding and notification reliability for SaaS products. The gap between deliverability tooling and actual inbox placement remains a persistent pain point.
Email verification is bolted on, not built into the send workflow
Developers building email tooling must integrate verification as a separate step rather than having it embedded in the send path, causing bounce rates, reputation damage, and deliverability issues from invalid, disposable, and stale addresses.
AWS SES sandbox blocks legitimate email senders indefinitely
Developers trying to send transactional email via AWS SES are trapped in the sandbox tier with no clear path to production approval. The opaque review process leaves users unable to send to unverified addresses. Alternatives like Mailgun, Postmark, and Resend have emerged to fill this gap.
Updating shared sections across multiple email templates requires manual work
SaaS teams managing 10+ email templates have no clean way to update shared sections like footers and headers without editing each template manually.
Upwork email authentication fails SPF/DMARC checks via MailGun
