Company
Enveloop
Design and send messages from your app with a simple API.
We built a developer-focused message builder and API that lets you send email and SMS from your app with one simple integration. It handles the complex parts of formatting and delivery so developers don't have to stitch together mailer libraries or different providers.
We live in Birmingham, AL, with some team members remote. Post-YC, we'd remain based here but keep the team distributed as needed.
Birmingham has a strong engineering community and is our home. Being remote-friendly lets us access the best talent without relocating everyone.
