For solopreneurs
Custom domain email for every project you run, all inside the Gmail you already use. No Workspace subscription per domain.
Solopreneurs juggle projects. Each one needs professional email. None of them need a $7/mo/user subscription.
A SaaS product, a consulting practice, a newsletter, a course. Each has its own domain. Workspace wants $84/yr per mailbox for each one.
You don't want five email accounts. You want one Gmail with a dropdown to switch between hello@saas.com, hi@consulting.co, and contact@course.io.
DNS records, SMTP relays, DKIM key rotation - you have a business to run. The email plumbing should be invisible.
Here's what a typical solopreneur setup looks like with SendMailAs.
| Domain | Addresses | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| yourname.com | hello@, contact@ | Personal brand |
| yoursaas.io | support@, hello@ | SaaS product |
| yourcourse.com | learn@, help@ | Online course |
| consulting.co | hi@, invoices@ | Consulting |
All addresses forward to one Gmail inbox. Switch between them with Gmail's “From” dropdown when composing.
Google charges per user, per domain. When you run four projects, the bill gets absurd.
| Email setup | Workspace | SendMailAs |
|---|---|---|
| yourname.com (2 addresses) | $168/yr | Free |
| yoursaas.io (2 addresses) | $168/yr | $0 |
| yourcourse.com (2 addresses) | $168/yr | $0 |
| consulting.co (2 addresses) | $168/yr | $0 |
| Annual total | $672/yr | $29/yr |
You save $643/yr with SendMailAs Pro
Workspace bundles tools you already have for free. Here's what you actually keep.
Gmail search is better than most paid email clients. Find any email from any domain in seconds. Filters and labels keep everything organized across all your addresses.
Google Workspace bundles Calendar, Drive, and Meet to justify the price. But your free Google account already includes all three. You're paying $84/yr for email routing.
The Gmail app on iOS and Android handles multiple 'Send as' addresses natively. Switch between domains with a tap when composing. No third-party mail app needed.
Every tool that connects to Gmail - Notion, Zapier, Calendly, Stripe - keeps working. SendMailAs doesn't change how Gmail operates, just what address appears on your emails.
Every new project gets professional email the same day you buy the domain.
Enter the domain name. SendMailAs provisions DNS on Cloudflare and configures MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records automatically.
Add hello@, support@, invoices@ - whatever you need. Each address forwards to your Gmail inbox.
Paste the SMTP credentials into Gmail's 'Send mail as' settings. One verification click and you're sending from your custom address.
Repeat for each new domain. The second one takes about 3 minutes because you already know the flow.
“I run a SaaS, a newsletter, and a consulting practice. That was $252/yr on Workspace for email I could get from Gmail. SendMailAs is $29 for all three.”
- Solopreneur, 3 domains
You keep Gmail. SendMailAs just lets you send and receive as you@yourdomain.com from your existing inbox. No new app, no migration. Gmail stays your email client - you just get a professional address on top of it.
Yes. Add as many domains as you want under Pro ($29/yr). Each domain gets unlimited addresses, and they all route through your single Gmail inbox. Switch between them when composing with Gmail's 'From' dropdown.
No - because you're not replacing Google. You keep your free Google account with Calendar, Drive, and Meet. SendMailAs only handles email routing and authentication. Everything else stays exactly the same.
SendMailAs configures SPF, DKIM, and DMARC automatically for every domain. These are the three authentication standards that determine whether your email lands in inboxes or spam. New accounts start with progressive send limits that increase as you build a clean sending history.
Yes. Your existing emails stay in Gmail. Set up SendMailAs, update your domain's MX records (SendMailAs pre-generates the exact records and you paste them at your existing DNS host, then it verifies them automatically), and cancel Workspace. New emails route through SendMailAs while your history stays in Gmail.
The Pro plan includes 500 sends/day, which covers most solopreneurs. If you're sending at higher volume, you likely need a dedicated email marketing tool like Resend or Mailgun for bulk sends, and SendMailAs for your day-to-day business email.
First domain free. Pro: $29/yr for unlimited.
