Use cases

Built for teams that send event-driven email

Whether you are onboarding new users, recovering abandoned carts, or sending transaction alerts — Synapse turns your business events into personalized email sequences.

SaaS

Turn signups into active users

Your product already tracks signups, feature activations, and trial expirations. Synapse turns those events into automated email sequences that guide users to value — without your engineering team writing or maintaining template code.

Onboarding drip campaigns

Trigger a welcome sequence on signup. Personalize each email based on plan, company size, or signup source.

Trial-to-paid conversion

Send reminders as trial expiration approaches. Include usage data to show value already built.

Feature adoption nudges

Trigger emails when users have not used a key feature within their first week.

Re-engagement sequences

Use flow triggers on inactivity events. Segment by last login date.

Onboarding conditional

{if the user's Plan is premium}
  Your premium account is ready. Here are 3 features to try today.
{else}
  Welcome to the free plan. Here is how to get the most out of it.
{end if}

Trial conversion

You have sent {count of the user's Emails Sent, pluralize "email"} and
activated {count of the user's Features Used, pluralize "feature"} during
your trial.

Feature adoption

{if the user's First Flow Created is not set}
  You have not created your first flow yet. It takes 5 minutes.
{end if}

Cart abandonment

You left these items in your cart:

{for item in the Items from the trigger event, show first 5}
  {item.Name} -- {item.Price, as "currency"}
{end for}

Total: {the Cart Value from the trigger event, as "currency"}

Product recommendations

{for item in the user's Recommendations, where "category" is "electronics", show first 3}
  {item.Name} -- {item.Price, as "currency"}
{end for}
E-Commerce

Recover carts. Delight buyers.

Cart abandonment, order confirmation, shipping updates, and review requests — e-commerce runs on event-driven email. Synapse lets your marketing team build and personalize these flows without waiting on engineering.

Cart abandonment recovery

Trigger a flow when the cart_abandoned event fires. Include actual items, prices, and cart total.

Post-purchase follow-up

Send confirmations with line items, then follow up with review requests on a timed delay.

Personalized recommendations

Use contact properties to include recommendations based on purchase history.

Win-back campaigns

Segment by last purchase date to target inactive customers with personalized offers.

Fintech

Send the right alert at the right moment

Financial communications demand accuracy. A half-rendered transaction alert or a missing reference number erodes trust instantly. Synapse's required modifier and strict formatting give your team the precision financial email requires.

Transaction confirmations

Send immediate confirmation when a payment processes. Multi-currency formatting built in.

Balance alerts

Trigger emails when a balance drops below a threshold using numeric operators.

Account activity summaries

Aggregate transaction data in periodic digest emails.

Compliance and audit emails

Every send recorded in the audit trail with timestamps and error details.

Start building fintech flows

Transaction confirmation

Payment confirmed: {the Amount from the trigger event, as "currency VND"}
Reference: {the Reference Number from the trigger event, required}
Date: {the Transaction Date from the trigger event, as "long date"}

Balance alert

{if the user's Balance is less than 100}
  Your balance is {the user's Balance, as "currency"}.
  Top up to avoid service interruption.
{end if}

Activity summary

This month you made {count of the user's Transactions, pluralize "transaction"}
totaling {sum of the user's Transaction Amounts, as "currency"}.

Seller onboarding

Hi {the user's First Name, or "there"},

Your seller account is ready.

{if the user's Listings Count is 0}
  Create your first listing to start selling.
{else}
  You have {the user's Listings Count, pluralize "listing"} live.
{end if}

Buyer order details

Your order from {the Seller Name from the trigger event}:

{for item in the Items from the trigger event}
  {item.Name} by {item.Seller} -- {item.Price, as "currency"}
{end for}
Marketplace

Notify buyers and sellers independently

Marketplaces send email to two distinct audiences — buyers and sellers — from the same platform. Synapse's multi-tenant architecture isolates data between tenants, and templates personalize each side independently.

Seller onboarding

Guide new sellers through listing setup and payment configuration with a drip sequence.

Buyer notifications

Order confirmations, shipping updates, and delivery notifications with seller and product data.

Two-sided review prompts

Trigger separate flows for buyer and seller reviews after a transaction completes.

Performance analytics per side

Compare email engagement across buyer vs. seller segments.

Deployment

Ship email campaigns without the risk

Every template, flow, and segment starts in a fully isolated test environment. Send real emails to verified addresses, iterate until everything is right, then clone your entire workflow to production with one click. No re-creating resources, no missed configurations, no surprises in production.

Design in test mode

Build templates, create flows, define segments — all in an isolated environment with its own contacts, events, and analytics.

Test with real emails

Send actual emails to verified team addresses. Catch rendering issues, broken personalization, and deliverability problems before they reach customers.

Clone to live

One-click clone moves templates, flows, segments, and reports from test to production. Everything transfers exactly as designed.

Iterate without risk

Modify and re-test in the test environment at any time. Live flows continue running undisturbed while you prepare the next version.

Start building in test mode

Test mode API key

POST /v1/events
X-API-KEY: psk_test_a1b2c3...

# Events go to the test environment.
# Flows, contacts, analytics — all isolated.

Live mode API key

POST /v1/events
X-API-KEY: psk_live_a1b2c3...

# Events go to the live environment.
# Production data stays separate from test.
