## Handwritten emails, by AI

Skyp's AI researches every contact before writing -- their role, recent news, tech stack, open positions. Each email is written from scratch for that person. No templates, no merge fields, no detectable patterns.

## Full control over every send

Preview any email before it sends. Edit tone, length, or CTA per campaign. Set sending windows, daily limits, and reply handling rules. Skyp runs the program -- you stay in the loop on what matters.

Done-for-you domain setup, professional Google inboxes, inbox warmup, SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and custom tracking domains. Skyp maintains a 96.2% platform delivery rate. You never touch the infrastructure.
