Wraps is an open-source operations and email-sending layer built on Amazon SES, designed for teams that want to keep their AWS account, sending reputation, and email data under their control without assembling the infrastructure by hand. A single CLI command deploys SES-related resources, including Lambda, EventBridge, DynamoDB, and scoped IAM roles. The central argument is that sending through SES is only the beginning: teams also need tools to protect the account’s ability to send. Wraps checks bounce and complaint rates hourly against AWS’s review thresholds - 5% and 0.1% - alerts account owners, and holds scheduled broadcasts if rates reach AWS’s pause thresholds. It also suppresses bounced and complained-about addresses, records message events in the customer’s DynamoDB table, and audits domain authentication, mail infrastructure, and blacklists.
The platform includes a TypeScript SDK, templates and workflows stored as code, broadcasts, audience tools, and analytics; a command-line domain check can inspect public DNS and blacklist data without installing anything. Wraps says it stores no AWS credentials, instead using a revocable IAM role, and that the deployed resources are new and can be removed without affecting existing AWS infrastructure. It cannot obtain SES production access on a customer’s behalf, requires an AWS account, and is not SOC 2 certified or suitable for BAAs. The software is AGPL-3.0; platform plans range from free to $29 or $199 monthly, while AWS sending and infrastructure charges are separate.
