doineed.email answers the questions people keep asking about sending email—"Do I need a dedicated IP?", "Do I need SPF?", "Do I need to buy an email list?"—with a blunt verdict first and the reasoning right below it.
How the verdicts work
Every answer is one of four verdicts: YES, IDEALLY (you'll be better off, but you won't sink without it), NO, or IT DEPENDS—usually with a qualifier that tells you which way it leans, like "most likely no". The longform under each verdict explains the conditions under which it flips, because honest answers have edges.
Who writes this
The answers are written and maintained by the team at Resend, the email platform for developers. The people behind them run email sending infrastructure at scale and carry decades of combined deliverability experience—these are the same answers we give when someone asks us directly.
They are opinionated defaults for typical senders of transactional and marketing email, not legal or compliance advice, and not neutral surveys of every possible position.
Built for machines too
Every answer exists as a page, as raw markdown (append .md to any answer URL), and as JSON via the API. Agents should start at llms.txt or the agent guide.
