Inbox Alert: SendGrid Sends 45B Emails For 60,000 Customers, 20B In 2012 Alone

SendGrid PictureSome may think the end is nigh for email -- with services like Facebook coming to replace it as a one-stop communications hub for consumers -- but going by the numbers out today from SendGrid, the email delivery company, thoughts like that may be a bit premature.The company -- which now works with 60,000 businesses, including buzzy brands like foursquare, Pinterest, Airbnb, Twilio, Spotify and Pandora to send out email communications to their users -- says that it has now sent 45 billion emails since opening for business in 2009 -- and use is accelerating. 20 billion of those emails were sent in 2012 alone -- a sign that no matter what innovations are coming to the web and mobile, many users (and companies) are still looking to email as a solid touchpoint.
