Why people look past Mission Inbox

Lite pauses on overage instead of billing extra. Scale overage is $3 per mailbox and $1 per thousand sends.

What we noted

Lite pauses when you exceed 5,000 sends
No published free trial
Not a Google Workspace reseller

Not the right fit for

Buyers who need unlimited sends on Lite
Teams that only want Google Workspace resale

Worth keeping in mind: REST API, SDKs, SMTP, and webhooks sit beside mailbox plans, so developers can send without a sequencer UI.

What each one does differently

Mailreef

$240/mo API

Why it comes up: Dedicated server with unlimited inboxes from $240/mo plus send fees.

Stands out: Your own mail server and IP, with unlimited free inboxes and developer API access on every plan.

Watch out: The $240 rate needs a 12-month commitment. Month-to-month Agency Flex is $249/mo. Both add $0.001 per send.

Best for

Agencies sending 20k-plus cold emails a month
Teams that want a dedicated IP they control
Senders connecting to Smartlead or Instantly

Infraforge

$4/mailbox/mo API

Why it comes up: Private mailbox slots from $4 with a public REST API.

Stands out: Dedicated servers plus a public REST API at api.infraforge.ai for domains, mailboxes, and sequencer export.

Watch out: Minimum 10 slots. Extra IPs are $99 per month billed quarterly. No free trial. Separate from Mailforge.

Best for

Agencies that want private IPs they control
Teams automating mailbox setup through the API
Senders who follow strict deliverability rules

Inframail

$147/mo

Why it comes up: Flat $147/mo unlimited Microsoft inboxes, no per-send fee.

Stands out: Unlimited inboxes on your domains for a flat monthly fee, with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC set automatically.

Watch out: Microsoft-backed infrastructure, not Google Workspace. You still need a sequencer such as Instantly or Smartlead to send.

Best for

Agencies that want unlimited Microsoft inboxes
Teams tired of per-mailbox Google bills
Senders who will bring or buy domains

EmailBison

$599/mo API

Why it comes up: High-volume outbound sending if you want a sequencer plus inboxes.

Stands out: One $599 price with no seat fees, dedicated IPs, warmup, and a private Slack channel.

Watch out: Buying is a demo, not self-serve checkout. Extra volume is extra monthly buckets above 500,000 emails.

Best for

Agencies sending serious volume on dedicated IPs
Teams that refuse per-seat sequencer pricing
Shops that want API and unlimited workspaces included
