New

Auto-Replace detects mailboxes that are burning out or nearing their 1-year expiry and replaces them automatically, no manual work needed. It's live for every Smartlead user now.

Once it's on, Auto-Replace handles the full cycle:

  • Detects at-risk mailboxes automatically

  • Orders and provisions a replacement

  • Warms it up before putting it to work

  • Swaps it into the same campaigns

  • Removes the old mailbox once it's no longer needed

Where to turn it on: Email Accounts β†’ Auto-Replace tab.

A quick setup takes your preferences, then it runs hands-free.

New

Calling just got smarter. SmartDialer now shows you exactly how your outbound calls are performing, and lets you leave a voicemail without waiting through a single ring.

Here's what's New:

  • SmartDialer Analytics - Filter by date range and number to see calls attempted, calls connected, average call duration, and connected rate at a glance. Track total call volume over time, break calls down by disposition status and tags, and keep an eye on your available credits and how they're being spent.

  • Voicemail Drop - Record or upload a voicemail once, then drop it into any call that goes unanswered, instead of waiting through a full ring or repeating yourself live every time. Manage all your saved voicemails from SmartDialer's Preferences tab.

We're continuing to build out SmartDialer. More coming soon.

Improved

Fixed

Buying and managing mailboxes and domains via SmartSenders just got smoother. We've shipped a few new capabilities and cleaned up the issues you flagged.

Here’s what’s New:

  • Add mailboxes to an existing domain - You can now purchase additional mailboxes on a domain you already own

  • Bulk sender-profile management - Update from-name, signature, forwarding domain, and profile picture across multiple mailboxes in one action.

  • 3DS Card Verification - all SmartSender purchases now go through 3D Secure, with retry on failure so you're never charged without an order

  • SmartSenders billing tab - order history, active subscriptions, domain and mailbox billing, and upcoming charges in one place

  • Restore deleted mailboxes - Deleted SmartSender mailboxes now stay in a pending state until a day before your billing cycle ends, so you can restore them.

Key Fixes and Improvements:

  • Payment bug fixes - 3DS cancellations returning success, card purchases failing on invoice total mismatch, and incorrect amounts on the billing summary page.

  • Google OAuth re-auth - Fixed silent token refresh failures on delivered mailboxes.

  • Email forwarding - Fixed bounces on forwarding for delivered mailboxes.

  • Apex domain redirect - Purchased domains now redirect to a live page, preventing reputation damage from dead landing pages.

  • Domain payment status - Fixed NULL status showing for some domains within the same order.

  • Delete / swap / recover mailbox or domain - View full domain history, swap a wrong domain before provisioning completes, and delete mailboxes without errors.

We're continuing to make SmartSenders faster and easier to work with. More coming soon.

New

Now you know the moment something breaks, not when your replies do.

Meet Insights - a live deliverability view inside Smartlead that watches every mailbox in your account and fixes what it can, reconnects, enables warmup, capacity, before you ever have to ask.

To find it, go to Automations in your sidebar under the AI Team tab, click the Insights icon.

Open it and you land on a live view: sends dispatched, a Live badge updating in real time, and a countdown to the next scan.

Here's what's possible:

  • One-click Reconnect fixes every blocked mailbox immediately

  • Every degrading mailbox filterable by issue (No Warm-up, Below 70, Blocked, Misfiring) or provider

  • Tap Summarise on any mailbox card for what's wrong and what to do

  • Switch between Last 7 Days and Last 14 Days, every number on the page re-scopes with you

  • Workforce Impact & Activity: see fixes applied, mailboxes fixed, and send capacity secured, not just today's snapshot

  • Honest, redesigned views that show real zero-send days instead of smoothing them out

Calls are no longer a separate part of your workflow.

Add a call wherever it fits inside the sequence you're already running.

Every sequence call opens with the full thread already in view: emails sent, opens, replies - no tab switching, no digging through history.

What’s More:

βœ… Lead Upload & Direct Calling - Upload leads and start calling right away, without adding them as a sequence step

βœ… Direct Dial - Dial any number manually, no lead upload required

βœ… Number Enrichment from SmartProspect - Pull verified numbers straight from SmartProspect

Adding calls to your email sequence can drive up to 2.5Γ— more positive replies and 30% higher conversion.

Because the best calls are never cold.

New

Now you can create up to 25 admin API keys, each with its own name.

One key for every integration is finally a thing of the past.

Until today, your entire Smartlead account ran on a single admin API key. One key powering your Zapier workflows, your Clay enrichment, your custom scripts, and every teammate touching the API. Rotating it broke everything. Revoking it broke everything. Debugging which integration was eating your rate limit?

What you can do now:

  • Create a dedicated key per integration (e.g., "Zapier Integration", "Clay Sync", "Internal Dashboard")

  • Give each team member their own key instead of sharing one

  • Rename, reset, or revoke any non-primary key without touching the others

  • Recover context on revoked keys from the new Revoked Keys tab

What hasn't changed: Your account's rate limit stays the same. It's now shared across all your admin keys instead of tied to one, so no surprise throttling.

Where to find it: Settings β†’ API Key Management β†’ + Create API Key
