Meet Your AI Assistant: Run Your Email Marketing by Just Asking

A built-in AI assistant that answers questions about your account and makes changes with your OK, plus an MCP Server that connects Claude, Cursor and other AI tools to your campaigns, lists and leads.

Checking how a campaign did, finding a list, making sure a domain isn’t blacklisted: each one is a few clicks through a few screens. On a busy day those clicks add up.

Now you can just ask. We’re launching two AI features today. The AI Assistant lives inside your account and answers questions about your email, campaigns, lists, SMS and leads. The MCP Server connects the AI tools you already use, like Claude and Cursor, directly to your account.

The AI Assistant: answers and actions inside your account

Look for the Ask AI button on any screen. Type a question the way you’d ask a coworker, and the assistant looks up the answer in your account. It’s powered by Claude, and it knows which part of the platform you’re in, so it suggests questions that fit.

Here’s what you can ask it:

  • Email marketing: “How are my recent campaigns doing?” “Are any of my IPs or domains blacklisted?” “How do I warm up a new domain?”
  • SMS: “How many SMS credits do I have left?” “Do I have any new SMS replies?” “What is my 10DLC registration status?”
  • Leads and CRM: “Show my newest leads.” “What lead labels do I have?”
  • List verification: “How many verification credits do I have?” “How do I clean a list before sending?”
  • Clients and resellers: “Which clients have auto renew turned off?”
  • Support: “What is the latest reply on my ticket?” It also answers how-to questions from our help center.

Nothing changes without your OK. The assistant can also make changes for you, like pausing a campaign, creating a list or adding a lead. Before anything runs, it shows you exactly what it’s about to do and waits for you to approve it.

It can only do what you can do. The assistant follows your account’s features and each user’s permissions. A team member who can’t delete lists in the app can’t delete them through the assistant either. Every approved or declined change is logged.

The MCP Server: bring your own AI tools

Many of you already work in Claude, Cursor or ChatGPT’s Codex every day. The MCP Server lets those tools work with your account directly, so you don’t have to copy numbers back and forth.

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol, an open standard that lets an AI assistant use an app as a set of tools. Once you connect, your assistant gets 147 tools across email campaigns, lists and subscribers, SMS, leads, list verification and support. It can also reach the rest of the platform API when it needs to.

That means you can ask for work that spans several steps:

  • “Compare the open and click rates of my last five campaigns and tell me which subject lines did best.”
  • “Are any of my sending IPs or domains on a blacklist right now?”
  • “Add this week’s new leads to my newsletter list.”

It works with Claude Desktop and Claude.ai (as a custom connector), Claude Code, Cursor and the Codex CLI.

Your API key stays in charge. The MCP Server uses the same API keys and rate limits as our regular API. We recommend creating a separate key just for your AI tools, and you can revoke it at any time from the Get API Key page.

Getting started

AI Assistant: log in and click Ask AI. Start with one of the suggested questions, or type your own.

MCP Server:

  1. In your account, open API, then MCP Server.
  2. Create a separate API key for your AI tools on the Get API Key page.
  3. Copy the setup line for your tool (Claude, Claude Code, Cursor or Codex) and add it.
  4. Fully restart the tool so the new tools show up, then ask your first question.

The AI Assistant and MCP Server are here to take the busywork off your plate, so you can spend your time on the campaigns themselves. Log in and give them a try. If you have questions, our support team is happy to help you get set up.

🚀 Introducing Hypermail SmartRelay: Smarter Email Delivery, All in One Platform

Email deliverability has never been more complex. Between multiple SMTP providers, IP reputation management, and balancing cold outreach with nurturing campaigns, marketers often find themselves juggling too many tools. That’s why we built Hypermail SmartRelay — a unified solution that connects all your SMTPs and IPs, rotates them intelligently, and ensures the right emails are sent from the right servers.

🔎 What is SmartRelay?

SmartRelay is designed to help you get more emails into the inbox. Instead of relying on a single provider, you can connect any SMTP — with built‑in support for Amazon SES, InboxRoad, Mailgun, PostMark, Sendgrid, SMTP.com, and SMTP2Go — or integrate your own custom SMTPs and IPs.

From there, SmartRelay gives you the power to:

  • Rotate traffic across multiple servers to keep your reputation healthy.
  • Set flexible rules to decide which SMTP to use for each list, domain, or campaign.
  • Track performance in a single dashboard with real‑time deliverability insights.

It’s all about giving you more control and better results.


📈 Why SmartRelay Improves Deliverability

SmartRelay isn’t just about convenience — it’s about optimizing inbox placement. Here’s how:

  • Rotate IPs & SMTPs: Prevent overload on a single provider and spread volume intelligently.
  • Smart Rules: Route Gmail users via one SMTP, Yahoo users via another, or balance traffic across all.
  • Warm Up New IPs: Gradually build trust with ISPs by controlling send volume.
  • Optimize Performance: Match the right SMTP to the right audience for maximum impact.
  • All‑in‑One Dashboard: Monitor every SMTP’s performance without switching tools.

❄️ Cold Outreach + Warm Nurture, Together

Unlike most platforms, Hypermail doesn’t force you to separate cold and warm audiences. With SmartRelay, you can:

  • Send cold campaigns safely using dedicated SMTPs/IPs for prospecting lists.
  • Identify engaged prospects by tracking opens, clicks, and replies.
  • Move them to premium SMTPs for nurturing, follow‑ups, and promotions.
  • Protect your reputation by keeping cold traffic away from trusted IPs.

This means you can run both outreach and relationship marketing in one place — without risking your sender reputation.


💵 Pricing Made Simple

SmartRelay scales with your needs:

  • Up to 500k sends – $199/month (+$25 setup)
  • Up to 1M sends – $299/month (+$25 setup)
  • Up to 5M sends – $599/month (+$25 setup)

All plans include unlimited contacts, unlimited SMTP relays, and full ESP/SMTP rotation.


⚙️ How It Works

  1. Connect your SMTPs – Add your own accounts or servers.
  2. Set your rules – Choose how to split or rotate traffic.
  3. Send your campaigns – Hypermail handles the routing in the background.
  4. Review results – See deliverability metrics for each SMTP and adjust.

👥 Who Benefits from SmartRelay?

  • Agencies: Manage multiple brands, each with their own SMTP setup.
  • Marketers: Improve inbox rates by rotating IPs and using the best SMTP for each domain.
  • Cold Email Senders: Prospect on one IP, nurture engaged leads on another.
  • High‑Volume Senders: Spread millions of sends across multiple providers.

✅ Why Choose Hypermail SmartRelay™

  • Use your own SMTPs — no lock‑in.
  • Handle both cold and warm sending in one system.
  • Protect and grow your sender reputation.
  • Scale sending capacity with ease.
  • Get all your deliverability data in one place.

Hypermail SmartRelay is the smarter way to manage email deliverability. Whether you’re an agency, a high‑volume sender, or a marketer balancing cold outreach with nurturing campaigns, SmartRelay gives you the flexibility, control, and insights you need to succeed.

Introducing True Click trust your click data again

Inbox security tools are great at stopping bad links—but they also “click” every URL in your emails, bloating reports and tripping automations you only wanted real people to trigger. True Click (Beta) is Hypermail’s new account‑wide option that helps cut down those bot-driven clicks whenever link tracking is turned on.

What True Click does

  • Adds a quick verification hop: Every tracked link briefly routes through a Hypermail verification page that runs a few security checks.
  • Preserves your destination: After the checks, the visitor is sent to the original URL you included.
  • Counts the click after verification: A click is only recorded on the second redirect, helping filter out many automated scanners.

Why it matters

  • More accurate engagement metrics: See a truer picture of who actually clicked.
  • Cleaner automations: Fewer false triggers for click-based journeys, scoring, and goals.
  • Better decisions: Optimize content and targeting with data that’s less skewed by bots.

How to enable True Click

  • Go to Email Marketing then in the sidebar click System Settings in your Hypermail account.
  • Check the box for “True Click (Beta).”
  • Click Save.

Once enabled, any tracked link will include the extra verification step automatically. No template or URL changes required.

How it flows

  • Recipient clicks a link in your email.
  • Hypermail sends the visitor to a lightweight verification page.
  • Checks run to help distinguish bots from humans.
  • If passed, the visitor is redirected to your original URL.
  • The click is counted only after that second redirect.

What to expect

  • Likely fewer total clicks in reports as bot activity is reduced.
  • Minimal impact on subscribers at most a very quick additional redirect.
  • Works only when click tracking is enabled for the send.

Best practices

  • Compare before/after metrics to understand the impact on your audience.
  • Review click-triggered workflows; you may notice improved precision.
  • Let stakeholders know that reported clicks may decrease due to better filtering.

Good to know

  • Beta status: We’re actively tuning detection and welcome your feedback.
  • Not a silver bullet: Advanced bots may still appear, but the goal is meaningful reduction.
  • Account-level control: Turn it on or off anytime in System Settings.

FAQs

Does True Click change my links? No. The final destination remains exactly what you set; True Click simply inserts a brief verification hop.

Will subscribers notice? Most users won’t notice anything beyond a near-instant redirect to the intended page.

Do I need to edit my templates? No. Enable True Click at the account level and it applies to tracked links automatically.

Can I disable it? Yes. Uncheck “True Click (Beta)” in System Settings and Save.

New in Hypermail: Turn Unsubscribes Into Marketing Insights

Email marketers often view unsubscribes as the end of the conversation. With Hypermail’s new Unsubscribe Survey, they can become the start of a learning opportunity instead.

We’ve added a simple way to capture feedback whenever someone leaves your list—so you can understand why they opted out and use that knowledge to improve future campaigns.


What Happens When Someone Unsubscribes

Now, when a subscriber clicks “unsubscribe,” they’ll be asked to choose one of the following reasons:

  • No longer want emails (Default)
  • I never signed up for this email list
  • The emails are inappropriate
  • The emails are spam
  • Other (with space to type in a custom reason)

If they select Other, they can tell you exactly what drove their decision in their own words.


See the Story Behind the Numbers

Inside Hypermail, you’ll now find a visual breakdown of unsubscribe reasons right in your dashboard. Each opt-out shows the chosen reason, and a pie chart view makes it easy to spot patterns at a glance.

  • Too many “spam” complaints?
  • Lots of “not relevant” responses?

With clear data in hand, you can tweak your sending frequency, improve segmentation, or refresh your email content strategy to match what your audience actually wants.


Why This Matters for Your Marketing

Unsubscribes are inevitable—but losing people without knowing why is a missed opportunity. Hypermail’s Unsubscribe Survey helps you:

  • Protect your sender reputation by spotting issues before they escalate.
  • Refine your email strategy based on real subscriber feedback.
  • Keep your list healthy by removing disengaged contacts proactively.

Available Now in Hypermail

The Unsubscribe Survey is live in all Hypermail accounts today. Check your dashboard after your next campaign to see real feedback and start turning opt-outs into insights.

Hypermail is one of the very few providers that offer this service. Hypermail allows sending to B2C and B2B emails.
