Cold email infrastructure for AI agents

If an AI assistant or your own agent should buy domains, create inboxes and launch campaigns, you need a documented API and, ideally, an official MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. These products confirm both.

Included if the vendor confirms on its site: a public API and an official MCP server. Ordered by overall score.
