In their own words
EmptyInbox
EmptyInbox provides disposable email inboxes for AI agents and developers through a REST API, an MCP server and a web inbox. A new address can be created for each task or agent run. Messages can be polled, or received through the MCP wait_for_message flow, which can extract verification codes. The web inbox uses passkey sign-in and displays extracted codes and links alongside messages. Each inbox creation uses one credit; receiving, listing and reading messages are free. Messages are deleted automatically after seven days. EmptyInbox receives email only and has no sending endpoint or SMTP credentials. Listed integrations include MCP-compatible agents, OpenAI GPT Actions, LangChain, CrewAI and OpenAPI-compatible frameworks; workflow guides cover Playwright, Cypress, n8n and LangChain. The free plan includes five inbox credits and REST API and MCP access. One-time top-ups start at 1.00 USD for 10 credits, payable by Bitcoin or USDT. The project is open source under the MIT license, and questions go through GitHub issues.
