Hey there ,=20

We have a big update for Python developers: we now have an official Python =
SDK. We've also got a customer who's sending tens of thousands of transacti=
onal emails through signup forms, and some reads that caught our attention.=
 Let's get into it.=20

**Shipped**  https://github.com/ActiveCampaign/postmark-python   The offici=
al Postmark Python SDK is here=20

Python developers, this one's for you. We've released an official Python SD=
K that's fully async, built on modern Python patterns, and covers the entir=
e Postmark API. Send emails, manage templates, track bounces, and work with=
 webhooks! All with clean, type-hinted code that plays nicely with your exi=
sting async workflows.=20

Install it with pip install postmark-python and check out the GitHub repo h=
ttps://github.com/ActiveCampaign/postmark-python or PyPI page https://pypi.=
org/project/postmark-python/ to get started.=20

We also wrote a deep dive on sending mission-critical emails in Python http=
s://postmarkapp.com/blog/sending-mission-critical-emails-in-python-smtp-or-=
api, covering when to use SMTP vs. API, error handling, and best practices =
for production.=20

**Customer spotlight**  https://grasshoppersignup.com/   This month we're f=
eaturing Brent, the builder behind Grasshopper Signup https://grasshoppersi=
gnup.com/: an ad-free, AI-assisted signup form tool. With magic link authen=
tication, automatic reminders, and thousands of creator-to-respondent messa=
ges, email is at the heart of everything Grasshopper does.=20

How would you describe yourself in one sentence?=20

Builder.=20

Can you tell us a little bit about your experience and the work you do?=20

I built a product called Grasshopper Signup to provide ad-free, AI assisted=
 signup forms. We send a lot of emails!=20

How has Postmark helped you?=20

From day 1 I started with Postmark. Every form submission sends a confirmat=
ion to the creator and respondent, and I use magic links for most authentic=
ation, the service also provide email and SMS reminders, so email is critic=
al to the service.=20

How are you using Postmark on your projects today?=20

10s of thousands of transactional emails, customer invites, lots of message=
s from creators to respondents, thousands of automatic reminders.=20

What advice would you give other folks in your role about implementing and =
managing their email?=20

Find a flexible provider that is easy to use and has great deliverability. =
You just don't want to be wondering if your emails are getting through.=20

Built something cool with Postmark lately?
We'd love to feature you in our Customer Spotlight!=20

**ActiveCampaign AI Lab**  https://autonomous.activecampaign.com/   Our fri=
ends at ActiveCampaign (Postmark's parent company) just launched AI Lab htt=
ps://autonomous.activecampaign.com/: a collection of free AI tools and reso=
urces for marketers. It includes a subject line generator/optimizer, origin=
al research on autonomous marketing, and real workflows from practitioners =
who've figured out how to integrate AI into their day-to-day. Worth a look =
if you're thinking about how AI fits into your marketing stack.=20

**Our latest, greatest finds from around the web**  Structured-Prompt-Drive=
n Development (SPDD)=20

Thoughtworks' internal IT teams developed a methodology that treats prompts=
 as first-class artifacts that are version controlled, reviewed, and improv=
ed over time. Martin Fowler helped shape the article. The core idea: when r=
eality diverges from the output, fix the prompt first, then update the code=
. Read more https://martinfowler.com/articles/structured-prompt-driven/=20

Pi: A lightweight coding agent built for control=20

Mario Zechner introduces Pi, a minimal coding agent designed to give develo=
pers total control over their environment. He warns against what he calls "=
the world of slop", the uncontrolled proliferation of AI-generated code tha=
t leads to technical debt. A call to slow down and keep humans as the gatek=
eepers of quality. Watch on YouTube https://youtu.be/RjfbvDXpFls=20

DeepSeek V4 Pro benchmarks=20

DeepSeek released V4 Pro and V4 Flash 1.6T and 284B parameter models with 1=
M token context windows. V4 Pro is now the #2 open-weights reasoning model =
on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. Worth tracking if you're eva=
luating models for your stack. See the benchmarks https://artificialanalysi=
s.ai/models/deepseek-v4-pro=20

**Meme of the month**  https://x.com/trashh_dev/status/2049301210038260149?=
