Email

Transactional email, sent from your own domain

Send sign-up confirmations, invites, password resets, magic links and any email your app needs, from your own verified domain and with your own templates. Workflows send email when a record changes, on a schedule, or when your API calls them.

Email that comes from you

Verify a domain, set a sender and preview a template, all in the Anythink dashboard.

Sending domains

Your domain, verified in a few clicks

Add mail.yourdomain.com, publish the DNS records the Anythink dashboard shows you, and verify. Set hello@ as your default sender and every email goes out under your name.

Templates

Preview with real variables before anything sends

Each template is rendered inside one shared, branded shell. Preview it with sample data, then send it from any workflow step.

Built in

Sign-up, invite, reset and magic-link emails

Authentication sends these for you, from your domain and in your design.

Authentication →

Email that comes from you, not from your backend vendor

Every email your users receive carries your domain, your design and your sender name, without you running a separate email service.

Your own verified sending domain

Add your domain, publish the DNS records Anythink shows you, and verify it. Email then goes out from your addresses, authenticated for your domain rather than ours.

What teams send

01

Order and booking confirmations

A new paid order triggers a workflow that emails the customer a templated receipt, with the invoice PDF from your file store attached, from billing@yourdomain.

02

Status changes your users care about

When an application, ticket or delivery changes status, a workflow filtered on that change emails the right person, with the record's details already in the template.

03

Scheduled summaries

A timed workflow reads the week's new records and emails your team a summary every Monday morning, without anyone running a report.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Anythink send email from my own domain?

Yes. Add your domain in the Anythink dashboard, publish the DNS records it shows you, and verify it. You can then add several sender addresses on that domain and set one as the default.

Which emails does Anythink send for me?

Authentication sends account confirmation, team invite, password reset and magic link emails. Any other email is sent by a workflow's Send an Email step, using your own templates.

Can I customise the email templates?

Yes. Each template can be edited and previewed with sample variables, and all of them share one HTML shell for your branding, so a design change applies everywhere.

Can workflow emails include attachments?

Yes. A Send an Email step can attach files from your project, either as regular attachments or as inline images referenced in the template.

Can I send newsletters or marketing campaigns?

Email in Anythink sends transactional and workflow-driven messages today, from your own verified domain. Mailing lists with unsubscribe handling are on the roadmap.

Get in Touch

More in the same project

Every feature reads from the same data model, so each one you add works with the rest.

Product

Authentication

Add email and password, magic links, and Apple, Google or LinkedIn sign-in to your app, with every native token verified on the server.

Product

Workflows

Automation that runs inside every project. Trigger on a record change, a schedule or an API call, then send email and push, call other services or run a script.

Product

Instant APIs

Every entity you create gets a REST API straight away, with filtering, sorting and pagination built in.

Make each entity public or private. Row-level security decides what each caller sees, every project is rate-limited, and your OpenAPI docs write themselves.

Product

Visual Database Designer

Model entities, fields and relationships in the Anythink dashboard, the CLI or with Claude, and each entity gets a REST API the moment you save it.

Product

Smart File Manager

Store files of any type, serve public ones from a CDN and private ones through short-lived signed links, with size, dimensions and duration recorded for you.

Product

Subscriptions

Model plans, trials and offers once, then take payment through Stripe or Apple in-app purchases without writing receipt-validation code.

Ways to build with it

The dashboard, the CLI, MCP and the SDK, plus guides for moving from other platforms.

Solution

Content Management

Anythink works as a headless CMS: model content types, edit them in the Anythink dashboard, and serve them to your website through a public REST API.

Solution

Flexible Data Views

Switch any entity between a grid, a kanban board, a calendar, a map and charts in the Anythink dashboard, all on the same records your API serves.

Branded dashboard
Solution

Branded dashboard

Brand the Anythink dashboard with your colours, logos, corner radius and menus, and send system email from your own verified domain and sender address.

Solution

TypeScript SDK

The Anythink SDK is an open source React library for sign-in and sessions: an auth client, a provider, a useAuth hook, and a base class for authenticated requests. Data calls go through the REST API directly — there's no hidden query layer to learn.

Solution

Anythink CLI

The open source Anythink CLI runs a whole project from the terminal: entities, fields, data, workflows, roles, users, files, search, secrets and integrations.

Solution

AI & MCP

Build your backend in a conversation, from Claude Code, Cursor or the AI chat in the Anythink dashboard. The same MCP tools reach the whole CLI, from entities and fields to workflows, roles, secrets and payments.

Who it's for

How founders, agencies and enterprise teams use Anythink.

Use Case

For Founders

Anythink gives founders sign-in, a REST API, subscriptions, workflows and an operations dashboard in one project, from first prototype to paying customers.

Use Case

For Enterprise

Anythink gives enterprise teams a managed backend with roles, row-level security and encrypted secrets, on a dedicated Kubernetes cluster if you need one.

Use Case

For Agencies

Anythink gives agencies a project per client, a branded dashboard to hand over, and a CLI that copies your template project into each new client project.
