Getting Started
Set up Transmit and send your first email in under 5 minutes.
1Create an Account
Sign up for a free Transmit account. No credit card required.
Create Account2Connect Your AWS SES
Transmit connects to your AWS account securely. We recommend our One-Click Connect flow which uses IAM Roles - it's faster and more secure than managing access keys.
One-Click (Recommended)
Connect in 60 seconds using CloudFormation. No long-lived secrets stored.
View Setup Guide →Transmit handles all infrastructure plumbing (SNS, S3, SES Configurations) automatically.
3Verify Your Domain
Add your sending domain and verify it via DNS. We'll automatically configure DKIM, SPF, and DMARC for optimal deliverability.
4Send Your First Email
Use the API to send a transactional email:
curl -X POST https://api.xmit.sh/v1/send \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"from": "hello@yourdomain.com",
"to": "user@example.com",
"subject": "Hello from Transmit!",
"html": "<p>Your first email is live.</p>"
}'
