Get notified: delivery rate anomaly detection

One stop for all your deliverability needs

• Introducing the new Deliverability page under the Analytics tab of your account! This page serves as a hub for deliverability reporting so you can check in on key metrics, send volumes, and more. Learn more about how you can use this page here.

Audience growth tools page

• Find all the ways you can grow your list through Klaviyo––sign-up forms, customized subscribe pages, consent at checkout, SMS list growth tools, and third-party lead capture tools––all in one new location under the Audiences tab. Learn more.

Other notable releases 

Go faster with improved reviews onboarding experience

• With our new guided onboarding experience, we’ll walk you through every step to set up reviews. This includes adding reviews widgets to your Shopify store, setting up a review request flow, and selecting a plan. Learn more.

Build better push notifications with images

• You can now add images to mobile push notifications and drive more engagement for your mobile app. Learn more.

Edit faster in the template editor with image resizing and cropping improvements

• We’ve improved the way you can crop and resize images within the template editor so you can build emails more efficiently:
  • Resize images by specifying the height and width you want the image to be, with options to fill the column and adjust image alignment.  
  • Crop images by dragging a “crop area” to where you’d like your image cropped, with options to adjust the aspect ratio and manually input dimensions. 

See email and SMS usage in real time

• Forecast your marketing budget with the new account usage page under the Billing area of your account. Compare your email and SMS usage over the last three, six, and twelve billing cyclers to better understand how much of your account you’re using compared to your Klaviyo plan.
