Getting Started

Go from zero to sending emails with RemindMe in under 10 minutes.

Quick-start guide

Follow these four steps to get up and running:

1

Create a RemindMe account

Sign up at remindme.me/sign-up. No credit card required to start.
2

Add and verify your domain

Go to Dashboard → Domains and click Add domain. Enter your domain name and follow the DNS instructions to verify ownership.
3

Create a mailbox

Once your domain is verified, create a mailbox under Dashboard → Mailboxes. For example, hello@yourdomain.com.
4

Send your first email

Use the dashboard composer, the REST API, or the remindme npm package to send.

Creating your account

Visit remindme.me/sign-up and sign up with your email or Google account via Clerk. After signing in you will land on the dashboard. Your account starts on the free plan with support for one domain and up to 200 emails per day.

You can upgrade to a paid plan at any time from Dashboard → Settings → Billing.

Adding your first domain

You must own and control the domain you want to send from. RemindMe does not provide domain registration.

1. Go to Dashboard → Domains and click Add domain.

2. Enter your domain (e.g. acme.com) and click Continue.

3. RemindMe will show you DNS records to add to your domain registrar. These include TXT records for SPF and DKIM. Add them all.

4. Click Verify. DNS propagation can take up to 48 hours but usually completes within minutes.

Once verified the domain status changes to Active. See Domain Setup for the full DNS reference.

Sending your first email

Once your domain is verified and a mailbox exists, you can send immediately.

Using the npm SDK

npm install remindme-sdk
# or
bun add remindme-sdk
import { RemindMe } from 'remindme-sdk';

const client = new RemindMe('dm_live_your_api_key');

await client.send({
  from: 'hello@yourdomain.com',
  to: 'recipient@example.com',
  subject: 'Hello from RemindMe!',
  html: '<h1>It works!</h1>',
});

Using cURL

curl -X POST https://api.remindme.me/v1/send \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer dm_live_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "from": "hello@yourdomain.com",
    "to": ["recipient@example.com"],
    "subject": "Hello from RemindMe!",
    "html": "<h1>It works!</h1>"
  }'

Your API key is available in Dashboard → Developer. See the API Reference for the full endpoint list.
