Connect SendGrid to Ceres — your AI Growth Officer — so its specialist agents work from your real SendGrid data. Send transactional and marketing email for newsletters and outreach.
What Ceres does with SendGrid
Delivery and engagement metrics for email you've sent through SendGrid.
Draft newsletters and outbound emails and, after your approval, send them through SendGrid. Every send is gated on your review of the draft.
What Ceres reads from SendGrid
- Delivered count — emails SendGrid confirmed actually reached a recipient's inbox
- Open rate — how many recipients opened each newsletter or outreach email, where tracking is enabled
- Click activity — which links recipients clicked and how often, where tracking is enabled
- Bounces — hard and soft bounce counts, so dead addresses don't drag down your sender reputation
- Spam reports — recipients who marked your email as spam, an early warning on deliverability
- Unsubscribes — how many people opted out of a given send
- Aggregate stats over time — totals and trends by day so you can compare one send to the next
How Ceres uses SendGrid
Ceres connects to SendGrid and, on a schedule, reads the delivery and engagement metrics for email you've already sent — delivered counts, opens, clicks, bounces, spam reports, and unsubscribes. On the writing side, the connection is approval-gated: your agents draft newsletters and outbound emails, but every send waits on your review of the draft. Ceres proposes the email and the recipients; nothing leaves your SendGrid account until you give explicit one-click sign-off. There is no autonomous send.
Two specialists put this to work. Your Newsletter Editor uses SendGrid to draft broadcasts and, once you approve, send them to your list — then reads back the open, click, and unsubscribe numbers to learn what your audience actually responds to. Your Sales Development Manager uses the same connection for outbound: drafting cold emails grounded in your real delivery and bounce history, then sending only the sequences you've approved. Each agent treats the engagement data as feedback, tightening the next draft against what landed last time.
The honest value is a standing email capability that runs for you instead of a tool you have to remember to open. Ceres watches your sender health and engagement between sends, flags a bounce spike or a deliverability dip before it costs you, and brings every recommendation back with the SendGrid numbers attached. You stay the approver on every message — the work of drafting, measuring, and proposing the next move happens on its own, evidence-cited.
In practice
The Newsletter Editor drafts this week's issue, you approve it, and only then does Ceres send it through SendGrid — with the unsubscribe link and your address already in place.
