Resend
new.email, Resend's standalone AI tool for generating email templates from natural-language prompts, is being shut down, with its capabilities folded into the main Resend product
departs 7 Aug 2026
What this means for you
new.email was a standalone product from Resend: describe an email in plain language and it generated a template you could export. Resend is closing it on 7 August 2026. Until that date the site still works and you can export your templates; after it, the platform stops accepting new prompts and sends. This is a narrow shutdown — the AI-template capability is not disappearing, it is moving into Resend's main email editor — but anyone who built templates in new.email and has not pulled them out has a hard deadline to do so. The one thing genuinely at risk is unexported work: the notice is explicit that access ends on the date, so treat 7 August as the last day to retrieve anything you want to keep.
Where to go
Export your templates from new.email before 7 August 2026 — the notice frames export as the action to take before access ends. The functionality itself continues inside the main Resend product, whose editor now offers brand extraction from a URL, AI block rewriting, LLM content review and generation through the Resend MCP server, so ongoing template work moves there rather than to a third party. Resend says teams that need help migrating can contact them directly. If you only ever used new.email to produce a template and then sent through your own stack, the only migration step that matters is the export; if you relied on it as a live tool, plan to shift that workflow into the Resend editor.
- Resend's main email editor (the named successor; AI block rewriting, brand extraction, MCP-based generation)
Resend is shutting down new.email, its standalone AI tool for turning natural-language prompts into email templates. The official announcement sets the date plainly: the service remains available for template export until 7 August 2026, after which the platform will no longer accept new prompts or sends.
This is a product being closed rather than a capability being withdrawn. Resend is folding new.email’s AI features into its main product: the Resend email editor now does brand extraction from a URL, AI-powered block rewriting, LLM content review, and generation through the Resend MCP server. So the “generate an email from a description” workflow does not vanish on 7 August — it moves house, into the tool most new.email users were already sending through.
The part with a real deadline is your data. Anything you built in new.email and want to keep needs to be exported before the date, because the notice ties the end of access to 7 August rather than promising a read-only grace period afterward. Resend adds that anyone who needs help migrating can reach out to them.
For most people the practical exposure is small: if new.email was a one-off way to produce a template you then owned, the only task is the export. If it sat in a live workflow, the successor is Resend’s own editor, and the migration is a move rather than a search for a replacement.
