Monitor email revenue and deliverability for ConvertKit (API), catch broken automations early, and keep lifecycle marketing accountable to store outcomes.

## Monitor performance

31 performance signals. Signals with an alert band can raise Nerve Centre alerts; every signal supports a merchant-configured watcher.

| Signal                                 | Outcome             | Alert behaviour      | What it tracks                                                                                             |
| -------------------------------------- | ------------------- | -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Email Share of Total Store Revenue** | Protect revenue     | Merchant rule        | Healthy creator brands range 20-30%. Below 15% = email under-leveraged; above 40% = paid-acq atrophy risk. |
| **Sequence-Driven Recovery Value**     | Protect revenue     | Watch only           | \$/30D recovered by welcome/nurture sequences. Goes to zero if the sequence is on hold (CK-SEQ-001).       |
| **Active Subscribers (Est.)**          | Run operations      | Merchant rule        | Estimated subscribed, reachable contacts.                                                                  |
| **Bounce Rate**                        | Protect revenue     | Alert band 2 / 5     | Share of sends that bounced. Rising bounces hurt sender reputation.                                        |
| **Campaign Status Breakdown**          | Grow revenue        | Watch only           | Broadcasts grouped by status (sent, draft, scheduled).                                                     |
| **Checkout-to-Order Rate**             | Grow revenue        | Merchant rule        | Share of started checkouts that became paid orders.                                                        |
| **Checkouts Started**                  | Customer experience | Merchant rule        | Checkouts begun from email clicks, where the commerce sibling reports it.                                  |
| **Click-to-Open Rate**                 | Grow revenue        | Alert band 10 / 3    | Clicks as a share of opens - engagement quality independent of open-rate inflation.                        |
| **Conversion Rate**                    | Grow revenue        | Alert band 3 / 1     | Orders as a share of emails sent - ties send volume to revenue.                                            |
| **Delivery Rate**                      | Protect revenue     | Alert band 98 / 95   | Share of sends accepted by the inbox provider. Below 95% needs attention.                                  |
| **Email Click Rate**                   | Grow revenue        | Alert band 3 / 1     | Share of delivered emails that earned a click - the clearest engagement signal.                            |
| **Email Health KPIs**                  | Protect revenue     | Watch only           | Delivered, bounced and unsubscribed at a glance - your deliverability vitals.                              |
| **Email Open Rate**                    | Run operations      | Alert band 25 / 15   | Apple Mail Privacy inflates this - pair with click-to-open for a truer signal.                             |
| **Engagement Funnel**                  | Protect revenue     | Watch only           | Sent → Delivered → Opened → Clicked. Drop-offs expose deliverability vs content weakness.                  |

| **Spam Complaint Rate**                | Protect revenue     | Alert band 0.1 / 0.3 | Spam complaints per send. Above 0.1% puts deliverability at risk.                                          |

## Audit risks and opportunities

A fix status appears only where the action, inputs, approval, verification and recovery controls are mapped. Candidate remediations are never executable.

### Build your own automated fixes

12 checks report findings on ConvertKit (API) today. Turn any finding into an automated fix with a Vortex IQ workflow: **13,885 read and write operations across 229 connectors** are available as building blocks, with approval, verification and rollback on every change.

## Automate approved work

Vortex IQ is integrated with **8 read** and **1 write** operations across sequences, accounts, broadcasts, broadcaststats, forms, sequencesubscriptions on ConvertKit (API). Combine them with anything from the **13,885 operations across 229 connectors** to automate the work in your own words.

Changes follow the merchant's configured approval policy: the target, proposed change, affected records, risk, reversibility and verification plan are shown before execution. Read-only operations do not modify the connected system.
