SendGrid bundles transactional APIs, marketing campaigns, and deliverability tooling—often with annual commits. Reloop is API-first, Apache 2.0, and self-hostable, with campaigns and transactional sends in one codebase. Reloop Cloud Free is 3,000 emails/month (200/day).

Reloop is the email service / infrastructure (ESP + MTA). It is not a multi-ESP connector that sits on SendGrid, Mailgun, Resend, or SES.

## FAQ

### Can Reloop handle SendGrid-scale volume?

Hosted Pro ($10/mo, 50,000 emails), Growth ($20/mo, 100,000 emails), and Enterprise target growing throughput; overage is $0.50 per 1,000. Self-hosted Reloop scales with your Kubernetes or bare-metal footprint.

### What about dedicated IPs?

Growth includes 1 dedicated IP and Enterprise is optional/custom. Self-hosted deployments can attach your own IPs directly to your MTA layer.
