§ 01 — the honest split

Two users. One stack.
Nobody pretends otherwise.

Most email platforms paper over the gap between the person writing POST /send and the person dragging a hero image into place. We don't. Pick your tab — both live in the same dashboard.

send_email.ts
// one function. no DSL.
import { chorizo } from "@chorizo/mail"

await chorizo.send({
  from:    "hola@acme.mx",
  to:      "maria@acme.mx",
  subject: "Tu pedido está en camino",
  template: "order/shipped",
  data:    { order_id: "A-7412", eta: "48h" },
  tags:    ["transactional", "shipping"],
})
// → { id: "msg_0x4f...", accepted: true, queued_at: 1734... }

Webhooks that don't forget

Delivered, opened, bounced, complained — every event signed, retried on your schedule. Up to 72h of replay.

🔑
SMTP if you must

Drop-in relay on :587 with app-scoped creds. Migrate from SendGrid without changing a single line.

🛡️
Idempotency, real

Pass X-Chorizo-Idempotency-Key. Send the same request 100 times. Your user gets one email.

Why chorizo?

Because email is about heat. Hot leads. Hot launches. Receipts that need to land before your customer closes the tab.

A good chorizo is spicy, fast, and travels well. So does a good email relay. We named it after the thing we wanted it to be.

No cold opens. No cold IPs. Just your message, delivered while it's still warm.

§ 02 — reputation, operationalised

Deliverability isn't a dashboard. It's a discipline.

No cold opens. No cold IPs. Warm-up schedules, suppression hygiene, complaint feedback loops, IP rotation — the unglamorous work that decides whether your email lands in the inbox or nowhere. We do it on your behalf. You see one number.
