The stack behind the sends

Universal Audio sends with SendGrid and publishes a DMARC quarantine policy.

Sends with

SendGrid

Domain authentication

DMARC: quarantine

Mail failing authentication is sent to spam rather than delivered.

SPF also authorizes Microsoft 365 to send as this domain, which usually means other tools sit alongside SendGrid.

How this is measured

Every figure comes from real Universal Audio emails captured in Inbox Archive, not from a survey or a vendor report. Medians and the campaign mix appear once a brand has 12 campaigns archived, and the day and time charts once 12 of them are scheduled sends. “Typical E-commerce & Retail brand” is the median across the 24 E-commerce & Retail brands that clear the same bar, each counted once however much it sends. Campaign types are sorted automatically. Discounts are read from subject lines, and a copyable code counts only when one appears in the email, so offers applied at checkout are missed.
