Short answer

How can I send emails using my AI?

You tell your AI what to send, and it uses Mailjet to execute the request. It can fire off simple plain text messages or pull from your existing Mailjet templates. You get immediate delivery without leaving your coding environment.

Where every email lands.

Email delivery outcomes

Your AI translates your intent into specific Mailjet actions.

TEXT

Plain text delivery

The AI sends a direct, unformatted message. This is best for quick alerts or simple logs.

TEMPLATE

Branded templates

The AI selects a specific template from your Mailjet account and fills in the variables you provide.

LIST

Template discovery

The AI looks through your Mailjet library to find the right template ID for the job.

HUMAN

Manual review

You decide when a message is ready. The AI waits for your command before hitting send.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for an email.

The AI acts as the bridge between your natural language and the Mailjet API.

  1. Identify the template

    If you want a branded look, the AI searches your Mailjet account to find the correct template ID.

  2. Prepare the content

    The AI maps your instructions to the required template variables or drafts the raw text.

    list_email_templates

  3. Execute the send

    The AI triggers the actual delivery to the recipient's inbox.
