Usage-based pricing

Predictable pricing for email sync at scale

Start for free with your first 100 connected accounts. After that, pay only for active usage and unlock automatic discounts as you grow.

Control total cost without sacrificing coverage

SaaS APIs charge per mailbox forever—even once onboarding is complete. Riposte installs inside your VPC so infrastructure is your only lever: you size Postgres, Redis, and compute the same way you do the rest of your stack.

Teams replacing Cloud-based email APIs regularly see 70–90% savings by swapping $1.50+/account fees for a single Kubernetes deployment. Those savings compound when you factor in data-egress, compliance reviews, and the ability to reuse observability you already pay for.

Because Riposte runs alongside your product you keep costs predictable: pause tenants, right-size workers, or reserve compute without filing a vendor ticket.

Riposte is a self-hosted email and calendar integration platform. Deploy it in your cloud to sync Gmail and Microsoft 365 accounts, expose a unified API, and stream webhooks without sending data to a third party.

Licensing is based on the number of active accounts you connect. Every plan includes core sync services, admin tooling, and support—scale up or down as your customer footprint changes.

We support Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 mailboxes and calendars out of the box. The platform is designed to add additional providers through configuration as new integrations are prioritized.

You deploy Riposte within your own infrastructure. Credentials stay in your secrets manager, payloads are encrypted at rest, and every webhook is signed so you can validate delivery.

Our team guides you through environment setup, provider credentialing, and connecting your first accounts. We also offer architecture reviews, performance tuning, and training for your operations team.
