Introducing Projects

You can now create multiple Projects under a single AutoSend account. Each project is a fully isolated workspace with its own API keys, contacts, senders, templates, campaigns, automations, and webhooks. Your subscription and monthly email quota are shared across all projects.
Projects in AutoSend

Why Projects?

  • Keep Production, Staging, and Development environments completely separate
  • Run multiple independent products under one subscription and billing
  • Build multi-tenant platforms (CRMs, Shopify apps, marketing tools) where each customer gets their own isolated project
  • Manage multiple clients as an agency without any data mixing

Two types of API Keys:

Along with Projects, we’re introducing a second API key type:
  • Project API Key (AS_...): Scoped to a single project. Use this for sending emails, managing contacts, templates, and campaigns. The right key for most integrations.
  • Account API Key (ASA_...): Cross-project scope. Use this to programmatically create, update, or delete projects. All requests with an Account API Key require an x-project-id header to specify the target project, except when creating a new project.
Read the Projects documentation to learn more, and the API Keys documentation for details on key types and authentication.

Email Automations v2.0: New Trigger Types + Visual Builder

Email automations just got a lot more powerful. You can now trigger automations based on contact properties, not just list or segment membership.
Email Automations v2.0

Three Trigger Types:

  • New contact is added to: Trigger when a contact joins a specific list or segment. Same as before.
  • Contact property matches with: Trigger when a contact’s property matches a condition you define (e.g., verified equals true). Great for targeting contacts based on their current state.
  • Contact property changes from → to: Trigger when a contact’s property transitions from one value to another (e.g., published changes from unpublished to published). Perfect for reacting to real-time changes. Supports multiple conditions with AND/OR logic.

Brand new visual workflow builder

Build your automation sequences in a completely redesigned visual workflow builder with a cleaner interface and smoother experience. Do try the email drag-n-drop to rearrange emails in your sequence. That’s our favorite part.Read the updated Email Automations documentation to learn more.

NEW: Domain warmup is now built into AutoSend.

If you’ve ever started sending on a new domain and wondered why your open rates were tanking, this is for you.
Quick create menu
We just shipped Gradual Send. It’s a new sending mode that automatically ramps up your email volume over time, so mailbox providers get familiar with you before you hit them with your full list.You pick a starting volume, choose how fast you want to grow, set a start date, and that’s it. AutoSend builds out your daily send schedule and shows you a chart of exactly what will go out and when. If your bounce or complaint rate spikes, it pauses automatically.No manual scheduling. No spreadsheets. No sending five small campaigns just to warm up a domain.You’ll find it under “When to send?” the next time you set up a campaign. Highly recommend it if you’re on a new domain or sending to a cold list for the first time.Read our Domain Warmup guide to learn more about warming up your domain and improving deliverability.

  • Resolved analytics text alignment issues that made numbers hard to read
  • Added SMTP rate limiting API to prevent sending spikes and improve deliverability
