Getting Started

Unified email and auth ops. One API, one dashboard.

Bounce House is a unified platform for email and auth ops. Monitor domain health, track deliverability across providers, test and automate auth flows, and give AI agents access to email, webhooks, and verification tooling, all through a single API and dashboard.

Get started with Bounce House

Add a domain to find out if your email is landing in inboxes or spam folders, track who's sending as you through DMARC reports, and get specific DNS fixes to improve deliverability. Connect your email sending providers (SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun, or SES) to see bounces, spam complaints, and deliveries across all of them in one place, correlated with your domain health, DNS configuration, and inbound signals that no single provider can see on its own.

For CI pipelines and AI agents, create ephemeral receivers that capture verification emails, webhook callbacks, SMS codes, or OAuth redirects during a test run. Each receiver gets a unique address, blocks until a message arrives, and auto-expires when you're done. Combine them with TOTP generation to handle two-factor login challenges and flow completions to click verification links and fill forms automatically.

The MCP server gives AI agents in Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients access to all of these capabilities directly.

Monitor your email infrastructure

Every domain that sends email needs to prove it's authorized to do so, or messages end up in spam. Bounce House continuously monitors your domains for authentication issues, parses the DMARC reports that Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo send back about your email, scores your overall health, and tells you exactly what DNS records to add or fix. Connect a DNS provider like Cloudflare or Route 53 to apply those fixes directly.

When you connect email sending providers, you get a unified view of what happened to every message: delivered, bounced, opened, complained about. Addresses that bounce or generate complaints are automatically added to a unified suppression list, and you can subscribe to bounce and complaint events to keep your own sending systems in sync in real time.

  • Domains: Email authentication monitoring, deliverability health scoring, and one-click DNS fixes
  • Providers: Unified bounce, delivery, and complaint tracking across SendGrid, Postmark, Mailgun, and SES
  • Suppression: Stop sending to addresses that will damage your sender reputation
  • Events & alerts: Get notified when health scores drop, bounces spike, or configurations change
  • Tag routes: Automatically process inbound operational email like abuse reports and security disclosures
  • Messages: Query everything Bounce House has received across all channels in one place

Build CI and agent workflows

Modern test suites and AI agents need to receive messages from the outside world: verification emails, webhook payloads, SMS codes, OAuth callbacks. Bounce House provides ephemeral receivers that give you a unique address or URL, block until a message arrives (no polling necessary), and auto-expire when you're done.

Combine receivers with TOTP generation to handle two-factor login challenges, flow completions to click verification links and fill forms, and the MCP server to let AI agents drive the whole process.

  • Receivers: Get a unique email address, webhook URL, phone number, or OAuth callback for each test run
  • TOTP: Generate valid two-factor authentication codes without an authenticator app
  • Flow completions: Click verification links, fill out forms, and capture screenshots automatically
  • MCP server: Let AI agents in Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients use all of the above
