Why OpenEFA Beats Commercial Systems

Enterprise-grade email security without the enterprise price tag.

Blazing Fast Performance

Dashboard loads in 24-30ms. Quarantine queries in 26-32ms. Redis caching, HTTP compression (60-80% bandwidth savings), and optimized database indexing deliver speed commercial systems can't match.

Intelligent Learning System

Machine learning that adapts to YOUR feedback in real-time. Mark an email as spam or ham, and the system immediately learns from your decision to improve future filtering.

Powerful Search & Control

Search by message ID, date range, sender, subject, or any field. Release, delete, or train the system on quarantined emails with a single click. Your data, your rules.

SMS Notifications

OpenSpacy-branded SMS alerts keep you informed of critical email events. Know when important messages are quarantined so you can take action immediately.

Complete Transparency

See exactly why every email scored the way it did. Per-module headers show SPF, DKIM, DMARC results, spam scores, and AI analysis. No black boxes.

Advanced Security Features

Per-domain scoring, SPF/DKIM/DMARC validation, phishing detection, and AI-powered threat analysis. Real protection that actually works.

Open Source. Self-Hosted. Under Your Control.

Commercial email security systems charge thousands per month and lock you into their ecosystem. OpenEFA is completely free, fully transparent, and runs on your infrastructure. No per-user licensing. No vendor lock-in. No surprise price increases. Just powerful email protection you control.
