About Vanish

Email shouldn't always follow you around.

Vanish is a simple temporary email service built for situations where you need an inbox for a short period of time without handing over your primary email address.

Why Vanish exists

Your main email address is useful, but it doesn't need to be used everywhere.

Signing up for a website, testing a service, downloading a resource, joining a temporary community, or receiving a one-time confirmation can sometimes create another stream of messages that you never wanted in your primary inbox.

Vanish was created around a simple idea: give people a quick temporary inbox when they need one, without making them create another account or hand over unnecessary personal information.

Built around a few simple principles

Keep it quick

A temporary inbox should take seconds to create, not another registration form.

Ask for less

Vanish does not require a traditional account just to create a temporary address.

Keep it simple

The interface focuses on the things that matter: your address, your inbox, and the messages you're waiting for.

Set expectations

Temporary email is useful for low-stakes situations, but it isn't a replacement for a secure permanent mailbox.

How Vanish provides email

Vanish uses the Mail.tm API to provide temporary email functionality. Vanish acts as the user-facing interface while the underlying email infrastructure is provided by the third-party service.

This means Vanish can focus on providing a clean and straightforward experience without operating its own email server infrastructure.
