Private email for founder-run teams.

Custom-domain mailboxes, shared role addresses and managed delivery for founders and the small teams working beside them.

Email infrastructure sized for a small team.

The current business fit is a founder-run company or small professional team with one person who owns the domain setup. Team plans begin from three mailboxes and stay centered on email.

Founders, early hires and contractors get separate mailboxes. Role addresses such as hello@, invoices@ or support@ can reach selected people without shared sign-in credentials.

Small-business email questions.

What size company is the current fit?

The Team plan starts from three mailboxes. The current focus is founder-run companies and small professional teams with a clear domain administrator.

How is business pricing calculated?

Business plans are billed per mailbox, monthly or annually. Adding or removing people during the term changes the bill on a prorated basis.

What happens when a teammate leaves?

An administrator removes the member, updates mailbox access and reassigns shared role addresses or aliases to the people taking over the work.

Does Thelemail have formal compliance certifications?

Thelemail currently has no SOC 2 or ISO certification. The security page lists the implemented controls, visible limits and current audit status in detail.
