Look at our findings to confirm the customer added your rules correctly.

4
Give Help

If settings are missing, show the user exactly what DNS record they need to add.

Overview

Protect your reputation by making sure every customer domain is correctly set up before they send their first email. Veldica gives you an API-driven method to check security settings in seconds.

Problem
Protecting Your Reputation

Allowing customers with broken DNS settings to send mail from your servers can hurt your reputation and cause emails to fail for all your users.

Friction
Slow Support Work

Customers often say they "fixed their DNS" when their settings are actually still broken. This leads to extra support tickets and delays.

Solution
Automatic Checks

Block sending until a domain passes our expert security check. No more manual reviews or guessing if a domain is ready.

The Verification Cycle

Add Veldica to your domain setup page to automate your verification process.

  1. Collect: The user enters their sending domain in your setup page.
  2. Check: Your app runs a quick Veldica audit in the background.
  3. Verify: Check our findings to make sure the customer added your required security rules.
  4. Respond: If settings are missing, show the user the exact DNS text they need to add.
  5. Activate: Only approve the domain once our API gives it a "Strong" security result.

Why Manual Checks Fail

Relying on basic tools or manual reviews slows down your users and leads to errors.

  • Hidden Errors: Basic tools miss complex rule limits that only cause problems during real email delivery.
  • Guesswork: Customers often misconfigure SPF includes or DKIM selectors, which are difficult to debug without expert help.
  • Long Wait Times: Users want to send mail now. Waiting for a support person to approve their domain leads to a poor experience.

Helpful Results

Use our findings to show helpful text directly on your user's screen.

Missing Security Rule
{
  "findings": [
    {
      "id": "spf.missing_include",
      "severity": "high",
      "evidence": "Your domain is missing our required security rule.",
      "fix": "Add include:spf.your-platform.com to your SPF record."
    }
  ]
}

Verification Logic

Use the audit results to decide when a domain is ready.

  • Score: Use a minimum score (like 90) as a requirement to approve a domain.
  • Risk Level: Only allow "Low" risk domains to send high volumes of email.
  • Findings: Use our findings to show custom help tips like "How to add DKIM in GoDaddy."
  • Evidence: Show our evidence text to help your users understand what is wrong with their DNS.
