How it works

Configure Delays

Set delays between emails (immediately, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, etc.).

3

Enroll Contacts

Automatically enroll new subscribers when they sign up via API or webhook.

Capabilities

Multi-Step Drips

Conditional Branching

Branch sequences based on user behavior (opened, clicked, unsubscribed).

Analytics

Track open rates, click rates, and completion rates for each sequence.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many emails should a welcome sequence have?
Most welcome sequences work best with 3 to 5 emails sent over 7 to 14 days. Start with an immediate welcome email, then follow up with value-added content.
Can I customize welcome emails per user?
Yes, use template variables like {{name}}, {{email}}, and custom fields to personalize each email based on user data.
What happens if a user unsubscribes mid-sequence?
The user stops receiving further emails in the sequence. Unsubscribe status is respected immediately.
