Could you build this?
Partial The disposable inbox API and dashboard are simple, but reliably receiving mail at scale and managing spam and abuse is operationally hard.
What it would actually take: Inbound MX handling (for example Cloudflare Email Routing or Workers, or self-hosted SMTP), a mail parser, a REST API with OTP extraction, and webhook signing. The hard parts are deliverability, abuse prevention against spam and blocklisting, and keeping inboxes isolated, which call for email infrastructure and abuse-ops experience.
