Resend CEO explains designing an email API for AI agents
Start here
Resend co-founder and CEO Zeno Rocha said on the Latent Space podcast that the company designs its email API to be selected by coding agents, citing an AEO study in which Claude Code chose Resend first in 64 of 102 email recommendations. He described how Resend's earlier product, React Email, a template tool developers could use with any email provider, left Resend code in some repositories before those developers switched providers. The account is Resend's own framing of why agents pick its API; the 64-of-102 figure comes from the study Rocha cited, not from an independent benchmark.
