How Raycast migrated to Resend

Resend is a sending partner that gets DX, reducing complexity so we can spend time building our product.

At Raycast, we care deeply about DX. But our own email sending was full of friction. Resend is a sending partner that gets DX, reducing complexity so we can spend time building our product.

Working with our previous provider felt cumbersome and nerve-wracking, especially for broadcasts to large audiences. The interface was complicated, the developer workflow involved too many steps, and every send carried that lingering fear: Is something going to break?

Switching over to Resend from SendGrid marked a significant improvement in our email management. We started with a small test - waitlist emails for our iOS and Windows apps. Within 30 minutes, we were done.

Resend's ease of use and comprehensive documentation allowed us to quickly expand to marketing emails and investor updates. Today, Resend handles all our iOS and Windows invite emails, waitlist communications, and targeted broadcasts.

The biggest difference Resend brought was confidence, and that confidence boiled down to two things: a clean, intuitive user interface and crystal-clear documentation.

It's nice to see Resend approaching something that is supposed to be simple… in a simple way. Migrating wasn’t just about swapping providers, but building a faster, cleaner workflow that matched the way we build everything else.
