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

No changes are made without the configured approval policy. Read-only operations do not modify the connected system; schedules, access scopes, API usage and data handling remain governed by Vortex IQ controls.

## Monitor performance

18 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                                                                                            |
| -------------------------------------- | --------------- | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Abandoned-Cart Recovery Value**      | Protect revenue | Watch only           | \$/30D recovered by the abandoned-cart campaign. Goes to zero if the campaign is in draft (CIO-CAMP-001). |
| **Email Share of Total Store Revenue** | Protect revenue | Merchant rule        | Healthy DTC ranges 20-30%. Below 15% = email under-leveraged; above 40% = paid-acq atrophy risk.          |
| **Active Subscribers (Est.)**          | Run operations  | Watch only           | Estimated subscribed, reachable customers (total minus unsubscribed).                                     |
| **Bounce Rate**                        | Protect revenue | Alert band 2 / 5     | Bounced / sent. Bounce >5% trips ISP throttling. Audit CIO02 fires here.                                  |
| **Campaign Status Breakdown**          | Grow revenue    | Watch only           | Newsletters and broadcasts grouped by status (sent, draft, scheduled).                                    |
| **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     | Converted / sent - ties send volume to the campaign goal.                                                 |
| **Delivery Rate**                      | Protect revenue | Alert band 98 / 95   | Delivered / sent. Below 95% needs attention.                                                              |
| **Email Click Rate**                   | Grow revenue    | Alert band 3 / 1     | Clicked / delivered - the clearest engagement signal.                                                     |
| **Email Open Rate**                    | Run operations  | Alert band 25 / 15   | Opened / delivered. 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.              |
| **Flow Count Summary**                 | Grow revenue    | Watch only           | How many campaigns exist on the workspace.                                                                |
| **Flow Status Breakdown**              | Grow revenue    | Merchant rule        | Campaigns split by state (running, draft, stopped).                                                       |
| **Flows List**                         | Grow revenue    | Watch only           | Every campaign (triggered journey) and its current state.                                                 |
| **Segments Overview**                  | Run operations  | Merchant rule        | Saved segments and their member counts. Audit CIO04 fires below 3 segments.                               |
| **Spam Complaint Rate**                | Protect revenue | Alert band 0.1 / 0.3 | Spammed / delivered. Above 0.1% Gmail starts marking sender domain. CIO03 fires.                          |
| **Total Sends**                        | Grow revenue    | Watch only           | Total emails sent across campaigns and newsletters in the window.                                         |
| **Unsubscribe Rate**                   | Protect revenue | Alert band 0.5 / 2   | Unsubscribed / delivered. A spike signals list fatigue or off-target content.                             |

## 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.
