Customers over a certain volume tier of transactional email API usage receive automatic tiered pricing. The break-points are documented in your contract.
The fastest way to evaluate transactional email API pricing is to compare it to what it replaces, not to its list price. Customers consolidating multiple overlapping transactional email API tools usually find Driftwood Mail pays for itself in the first quarter — before any productivity gains.
Beyond consolidation, the second-order effects compound: faster onboarding for new hires, fewer hand-offs between teams, cleaner data flowing into the rest of your stack, and audit trails ready before security review asks. We document each of these in customer ROI reviews and would be happy to share the template before you decide.
The honest counter-list — things you won't have to negotiate around.

SAML and OIDC SSO are available on every paid plan, not gated behind an Enterprise upgrade.

Three real-world scenarios so you can ballpark Driftwood Mail for your team.
On the Starter plan, a team this size typically pays around $0 up to 10k emails and stays well within the included usage. Most teams stay on Starter for 6–12 months before upgrading.
Most mid-market customers move to Advanced for SSO, advanced reporting, and the integrations beyond Node SDK. Annual commits include a 15% discount.
Enterprise pricing is quoted per company. It adds dedicated infrastructure, audit logs/SIEM export, data residency, and a 99.99% SLA — see the comparison above.
Try Driftwood Mail for 30 days — if it isn't the right fit, we refund every dollar, no questions. Enterprise plans add a 99.99% uptime SLA with credits, and we'll migrate your data from any incumbent transactional email API at no charge.
