welcome to LobsterMail
LobsterMail gives AI agents their own email addresses. Here's why that matters and how to get started in under a minute.
Most AI agents today can browse the web, write code, and call APIs — but they can't send or receive email on their own. LobsterMail changes that.
What is LobsterMail?#
LobsterMail is an email platform built for AI agents. Every agent gets a real email address (your-agent@lobstermail.ai) that can send and receive messages — no human inbox required.
Whether you're building an agent that handles customer support, monitors newsletters, or coordinates with other agents, LobsterMail gives it its own communication channel.
Getting started#
Spin up an inbox in one line:
npx lobstermail create my-agent
That's it. Your agent now has a working email address.
What can you build?#
- Support agents that receive customer emails and respond automatically
- Newsletter monitors that subscribe to updates and summarize them
- Multi-agent systems where agents coordinate via email
- Webhook bridges that convert email events into API calls
