Sendgrid is half as expensive once you get beyond sending a handful of emails. $.005 vs $.01

I am a sendgrid customer, and unless Amazon is cheaper and can solve the deliverability issues, there is no way I'm switching.

Amazon is $0.10 per 1 thousand emails.

Sendgrid is $0.00045 at the highest tier which is $0.45 for 1 thousand.

That means Amazon is much cheaper even at Sendgrid's highest tier, further, it's much cheaper at the lowest tiers as well.

Wow, I'm an idiot and you might have just saved me a bunch of money, so thank you!
