What Yoto sends
Product Launches is the campaign Yoto sends most, at 33%; no type is a majority. Welcome, cart and order emails were set off by our own signup, so they do not count toward that.
The stack behind the sends
Yoto sends with Braze and publishes a DMARC none policy.
Sends with
Domain authentication
Failures are monitored but still delivered, so the policy is not enforced yet.
The median Yoto campaign carries 14 images.

How this is measured
Every figure comes from real Yoto 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 31 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.
