Grouping by Email Type

Sequenzy allows you to filter and group metrics by email type, giving you insights into how different types of emails perform.

Email Types

Type	Description
Transactional	One-off emails triggered by user actions (receipts, etc.)
Campaigns	Broadcast emails sent to a segment or list
Sequences	Automated emails from workflows

Why Group by Type?

Different email types have different benchmarks and purposes:

Transactional emails:
  └── High open rates (80%+) - recipients expect them
  └── Low unsubscribes - requested by user action

Campaigns:
  └── Moderate open rates (20-30%) - promotional content
  └── Higher unsubscribes - less personalized

Sequences:
  └── Higher engagement - triggered by behavior
  └── Variable rates - depends on automation type

Grouping helps you compare apples to apples and identify issues specific to each email type.

Viewing Metrics

Dashboard Overview

Your dashboard shows high-level metrics across all email types:

Total emails sent (last 30 days)
Overall open and click rates
Trend charts showing performance over time
Quick comparison to previous period

Ask From The Dashboard

The dashboard landing page also includes an expandable AI workspace for quick metric checks.

Ask questions like What are my metrics for last 30d?
Ask review-style prompts like Tell me what happened last week
Ask scoped performance prompts like Show my top performing sequence or What is my best campaign?
Sequenzy fetches a live company-level snapshot and shows the latest sends, deliveries, open rate, and click rate
For sequence and campaign performance questions, Sequenzy can point to the specific sequence or campaign instead of only showing the company aggregate
You can keep asking follow-up questions from the floating chat, so prompts like Why did opens dip? or What should I improve next? keep the earlier context
You can jump from that summary straight into the full Metrics page if you want charts and deeper filters

Understanding Your Metrics

Open Rates

Open Rate	Interpretation
40%+	Excellent - highly engaged audience
20-40%	Good - healthy engagement
10-20%	Average - room for improvement
Under 10%	Low - review subject lines and list quality

Open rates can be inflated or deflated due to email client behavior. Apple Mail Privacy Protection pre-fetches images, inflating rates. Some clients block images entirely, deflating rates. Focus on trends rather than absolute numbers.

Click Rates

Click Rate	Interpretation
5%+	Excellent engagement
2-5%	Good - content resonates
1-2%	Average
<1%	Low - review content and CTAs

Bounce Rates

Bounce Rate	Interpretation
<2%	Healthy list
2-5%	Needs attention - clean your list
>5%	Critical - high risk of deliverability issues

Unsubscribe Rates

Unsubscribe Rate	Interpretation
<0.5%	Healthy
0.5-1%	Monitor closely
>1%	Review frequency and content relevance

Using Metrics for Optimization

1. A/B Test Subject Lines

Compare open rates between campaigns to identify what resonates:

Campaign A: "Your weekly update" → 18% open rate
Campaign B: "3 tips to boost your sales" → 32% open rate

→ Specific, benefit-driven subject lines perform better

2. Optimize Send Times

Review when your emails get the highest engagement:

Look at open rates by day of week
Identify peak engagement hours
Adjust your send schedule accordingly

3. Improve Click-Through

If opens are high but clicks are low:

Review your call-to-action placement
Make buttons more prominent
Ensure content matches subject line promise

4. Reduce Unsubscribes

High unsubscribe rates indicate:

Email frequency too high
Content not matching expectations
Wrong audience targeting

5. Clean Your List

High bounce rates hurt deliverability:

Remove hard bounces automatically
Re-engage inactive subscribers
Use double opt-in for new signups

Metrics by Email Type Examples

Transactional Metrics

Best for tracking:

Delivery success for critical emails
Whether users are receiving receipts/confirmations
Any deliverability issues with transactional sends

Campaign Metrics

Best for tracking:

Subject line performance
Content engagement
Audience growth and retention
A/B test results

Sequence Metrics

Best for tracking:

Automation effectiveness
Conversion through the funnel
Drop-off points in sequences
Which emails drive the most action

Best Practices

1. Review Metrics Regularly

Set a weekly or bi-weekly schedule to review:

Overall performance trends
Any sudden drops in engagement
Bounce and complaint rates

2. Benchmark Against Yourself

Industry benchmarks vary widely. Track your own metrics over time to establish your baseline, then work to improve it.

3. Segment Your Analysis

Don’t just look at aggregate numbers. Break down by:

Email type (transactional, campaigns, sequences)
Subscriber segments
Individual campaigns or sequences

4. Act on Insights

Metrics are only valuable if you use them:

Low open rates → Test new subject lines
Low click rates → Improve content and CTAs
High bounces → Clean your list
High unsubscribes → Reduce frequency or improve targeting

Common Queries via API

You can fetch metrics programmatically using the Analytics API. Below are common questions mapped to the right API call.

How many emails did we send in the last 7 days?

curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics?period=7d" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Check stats.sent in the response.

What’s the open rate for a specific campaign?

curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics/campaigns/{campaignId}" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Check stats.openRate in the response.

Which step in my sequence has the highest drop-off?

curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics/sequences/{sequenceId}" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Compare steps[].stats.sent across steps — a large drop between consecutive steps indicates where subscribers disengage.

Who opened or clicked my campaign?

curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics/recipients?campaignId={campaignId}" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Each recipient in the response includes opened, clicked, and unsubscribed fields. See Get Recipients.

Did a specific user engage with any of my emails?

curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics/recipients?email=user@example.com" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Returns all engagement events for that recipient across campaigns and sequences.

How do I sync engagement data to my database on a schedule?

Call /metrics/recipients with a time window matching your cron interval:

# Run daily — fetch yesterday's engagement
curl "https://api.sequenzy.com/api/v1/metrics/recipients?period=24h&limit=100" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Paginate through all results using page and store each recipient’s opened, clicked, and unsubscribed data locally.
