Latenode

Email alerts to SMS

Use Mailhook (or an email-to-webhook bridge you control) so Latenode receives structured email payloads.

JavaScript extracts the signal you care about—order IDs, thresholds, keywords—and formats an SMS body. ClickSend delivers the text. The workflow is honest about moving from email-shaped events to SMS without naming unrelated automation brands.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runs in credits: 1 credit = 30 seconds of processing. Minimum charge per run depends on your plan. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.
