About
What is SendGrid?
SendGrid is an email delivery service owned by Twilio. Twilio sells it for sending automated email at high volume, plus a separate product for marketing campaigns. Software hands it messages such as order confirmations or password resets, and it delivers them. Companies use it to send automated customer emails and campaigns from their own domain, once that domain is verified with SendGrid. The catch is setup. Plugging the Email API into your own process means writing code, so a rep who wants a contract reminder or an onboarding sequence usually waits for an engineer to get to it.
Use cases
What you can do
- Send a branded “quote sent” email to a customer from your own domain, using your template, the moment a rep marks the quote as sent.
- Email contract reminders to customers whose signature is still missing, with the deal name and the date filled in automatically.
- Send renewal notices on a schedule you define, with each account’s renewal date and owner included.
- Start an onboarding email sequence for a customer when a deal moves to closed won.
- Notify a rep by email when a quote is about to expire, a discount approval is waiting or a renewal date is getting close.
Setup
How it works
An admin pastes a SendGrid API key once, on Genipy’s Integrations page. Genipy checks the key with SendGrid, then the admin chooses which tools may send with it. Your SendGrid account and templates stay as they are. Describe the tool to your AI, for example: “Build a closed-won tracker: when I mark a deal as closed won, send the customer our welcome email through SendGrid and email the account manager.” When it’s ready, you click Publish. Every version passes automatic checks before your team can open it. Invite the team by email: Editors and Owners can send, Viewers only read.
