Today we're releasing our Knock-powered default email channel, giving all new Knock accounts the ability to start sending emails, without needing to setup a third party provider.

Using the new Knock-powered email channel, you'll be able to send up to 100 emails from your Knock account per-month for free, perfect for testing or for small side projects. The limit is per-account, so includes both your development and production environments. Once the monthly limit is reached your messages will stop being delivered until it's reset on the first of the month.

You'll find the new Knock-powered default email channel waiting for you once you create a new Knock account. From there, you can select the channel as you're building your workflows or broadcasts to start sending emails to your users.
