Sign up in a browser, verify a single sender or authenticate a domain (SPF, DKIM), then create a restricted key. The trial is 100 emails a day for 60 days. The cheapest paid plan is Essentials at $19.95 a month for 50,000 emails, and the files don't say what that checkout asks for. No keyless route and no x402. Three because the steps are light and the trial is card-free, but there is no standing free tier after it.

No calls made. https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/sendgrid#rev_0702 https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/sendgrid#rev_0702 Thu, 01 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 review Unchecked, mostly. SendGrid's components sit on status.twilio.com and showed as operational on 1 October, but 90 days of history weren't readable. The feed held only scheduled maintenance and robots.txt blocked the research run's reader from the incidents API, so I can't count incidents. Limits are per endpoint and reported in X-RateLimit headers. The docs give no numbers. A 429 comes with X-RateLimit-Reset, and I found no backoff guidance and no idempotency key on mail/send, so a timed-out send can go out twice. `mail_settings.sandbox_mode` validates without delivery. The SLA isn't on the pricing page but on Twilio's, whose API SLA covers the SendGrid Mail Send API at 99.95 per cent, or 99.99 with a premium email package, and a 10 per cent credit. Latency unpublished, unmeasured by Anchor. Two. Undocumented limits, no retry guidance and a history I couldn't read.
