Paubox is a HIPAA compliant, HITRUST certified email infrastructure company serving healthcare organizations in the United States. Its products encrypt outbound email without recipient portals, passwords, or plugins, and work alongside Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. The developer surface is three REST APIs on api.paubox.com — the Paubox Email API for transactional email (send, bulk send, message receipt, Handlebars dynamic templates, templated messages) with an SMTP relay alternative at smtp.paubox.com:587; the Paubox Marketing API for HIPAA compliant campaign mailings, drip campaigns, subscribers, subscription lists, tracking links and campaign analytics; and the Paubox Forms API for building, hosting and processing secure patient intake forms with public respondent endpoints and scoped management endpoints. Paubox publishes OpenAPI 3.0 definitions for all three, official SDKs for ten languages, a Node-based CLI, delivery webhooks, an llms.txt, an A2A agent card, a published Agent Skill, and a hosted MCP server at mcp.paubox.com exposing 30 tools across email, forms and marketing.
