Modern server infrastructure

When you're sending 10,000+ emails per month, shared infrastructure becomes your biggest liability. One bad actor on your server can tank your entire agency's deliverability overnight.

The Shared Server Problem

Most email platforms cram hundreds of users onto the same sending infrastructure. When someone else gets flagged for spam, your IP reputation takes the hit. It's like sharing a credit score with strangers—their mistakes become your problem.

Reputation Contamination

Shared IP addresses mean shared reputations. One spammer on your server can blacklist your entire agency's outreach overnight, destroying months of careful sender reputation building.

Why Quinton AI Went Dedicated

Quinton AI runs dedicated email infrastructure for every high-volume client. Your sending reputation is yours alone. No shared IPs, no cross-contamination, no surprises when your open rates suddenly crater because someone else got sloppy.

Dedicated vs. Shared Infrastructure

Shared Servers

Dedicated Infrastructure

  • • Custom IP warming schedules
  • • Protected from others' mistakes
  • • Custom domain authentication
