An inbox is an email address Erdo owns and can receive mail at. Create one and you get a unique address; anything sent to it (a verification code, a magic link, a reply) is captured and readable — by you and by the agent that needs it. The most common use: an agent needs to sign up to a service or app to do a job, and that service emails a confirmation code. The agent creates an inbox, uses the address to sign up, then reads the code and carries on — no human relaying emails.

How it works

1

Create an inbox

You (or an agent, on your behalf) create an inbox and get back a unique address like [email protected].
2

Use the address

Enter it wherever an email is required — a signup form, a newsletter, a service that sends a one-time code.
3

Read what arrives

Erdo captures mail sent to that address and surfaces the message — subject, sender, body, and any verification code or links it spots.

​
Private by default

Every inbox is owned by you. Only you — and an agent acting on your behalf — can read its mail. Addresses are unguessable, and Erdo only captures mail sent to an address you actually created; it does not collect arbitrary mail sent to the domain. Delete an inbox and its stored messages go with it.

​
Agents and inboxes

Because inboxes are private and owned, agents can create and read their own freely. A typical agent flow:
“Sign me up for a free trial of that analytics tool and pull my first report.”
The agent creates an inbox, signs up with the address, reads the verification code from the inbox, completes signup, and gets to work — all in one thread.
Inboxes are for receiving mail. To send email (a report, an alert), an agent uses its email-sending tools instead — see Automations.
