# Introduction

> A self-hosted email marketing platform with campaigns, automation, and multi-tenant billing

Azvian Mailer is a self-hosted email marketing platform: lists and subscribers, a drag-and-drop email builder, campaigns, open/click tracking, marketing automation, and a REST API with outbound webhooks — installed on your own server, multi-tenant from the ground up so you can resell it under your own billing.

## Requirements

* PHP 8.3+, with extensions: `zip`, `mbstring`, `openssl`, `json`, `pdo_mysql`, `fileinfo`, `dom`, `libxml`, `curl`, `iconv`
* MySQL 8+ (or compatible)
* A queue worker (`php artisan queue:work`) — campaign sends, automation steps, and webhook deliveries are all queued jobs
* A cron entry running `php artisan schedule:run` every minute — drives scheduled sends, automation processing, and license checks
* (Optional) A Stripe account, for tenant self-service billing
* (Optional) An AWS SES-configured domain, if a tenant wants real bounce/complaint notifications for their own sending
