Get a Slack alert the moment your domain lands on a blacklist

The system checks your domains and IPs against blacklists regularly and pings Slack the moment one gets flagged.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Exactly one path is taken; runs once per one per domain or ip.

The problem it solves

If your domain or mail server quietly lands on a spam blacklist, your emails start bouncing or landing in junk and you might not find out for days. By then you've already lost deliverability and trust with customers.

Who it fits

A business that relies on email deliverability and wants to catch blacklisting issues immediately.

How it works

  1. On a regular schedule, the system checks your domains and IP addresses
  2. Each one is looked up against known blacklists
  3. If a new listing is found, it's flagged right away
  4. A Slack alert is sent naming the asset and which blacklist flagged it
What you get

Blacklisting caught before it hurts deliverability

You get an instant Slack alert the moment one of your domains or IPs lands on a blacklist, so you can act fast.

What you get

An instant Slack alert whenever a domain or IP gets newly blacklisted.

What you need

A Slack workspace and access to a blacklist lookup service.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
