Torpedo

Torpedo is a transactional messaging API. Send emails and SMS messages from a single API — we handle AWS SES, SMPP delivery, DNS verification, bounce processing, delivery tracking, and webhook delivery on your behalf.

​
How it works

1

Verify your domain

Add DNS records to prove you own your sending domain. Torpedo sets up SES DKIM verification and generates the SPF and DMARC records you should publish in DNS.
2

Get an API key

Create a workspace and generate an API key scoped to your verified domain.
3

Send emails or SMS

POST /api/v1/emails for transactional email via AWS SES, or POST /api/v1/sms for SMS to Mozambican numbers via SMPP.
4

Track delivery

Receive real-time delivery, bounce, and complaint events via webhooks.

​
What Torpedo is not

  • Not a marketing tool — no campaigns, no newsletters, no unsubscribe management. Torpedo is for transactional messages triggered by developer code.
  • Not a shared IP pool — your emails go out under your verified domain, not ours.
  • SMS is Mozambique-only — the SMS API only accepts +258 numbers and routes via SMPP to local carriers.
