Text.email converts emails into SMS messages instantly, providing real-time notifications directly to mobile phones. Its main purpose is to replace the traditional carrier email-to-SMS gateways that have been discontinued, ensuring critical alerts are delivered reliably.
Key features include fast, one-way notifications designed specifically for alerts rather than marketing. The service works with any application capable of sending email, requires no APIs or coding to implement, and includes built-in compliance with A2P 10DLC regulations and STOP/HELP handling. Additional capabilities include multi-carrier SMS routing, deliverability retries, per-message logging, and 24/7 monitoring.
The service operates by allowing users to send emails to customized addresses formatted as [email protected]. Only emails sent to these specific addresses are delivered and billed to the account. Setup involves signing up with an email address, selecting a plan, and choosing a private keyword to begin sending alerts.
Benefits include never missing critical alerts since SMS is more noticeable than email, and the ability to get up and running in under a minute. Use cases explicitly mentioned are server and uptime alerts, security and access notifications, backup failures, application errors, cron job failures, on-call paging, sensors, monitors, IoT devices, and critical warnings.
The product is built for scenarios where something emails you when it goes wrong, specifically targeting needs for reliable alert delivery. It is built by the team behind GMass, an email platform trusted by over 400,000 users worldwide, ensuring enterprise-grade reliability and message privacy by default.
