Founded 2021 by Nils Schneider et al., bootstrapped (whatastartup.substack.com; tracxn.com/d/companies/instantly). Official MCP server (help.instantly.ai). v2 API at developer.instantly.ai. FLAGS: recurring 2026 deliverability/reputation complaints (DFY domains, inflated dashboard heat scores vs real inbox placement) and weak support (Reddit/G2). aiNative omitted — sending/deliverability infra with AI bolted on despite 'chat to AI' repositioning.
