A Smarter Dashboard & Deeper Deliverability Data

This one is all about clarity: understanding how you're doing at a glance, and getting your contacts in without friction. Three upgrades shipping today.

A Rebuilt Home Dashboard 📈

Your home dashboard now answers the question that actually matters — are things trending up?

  • Period selector: View your stats over the last 7, 30, or 90 days (and we'll remember your choice).
  • Previous-period comparison: Every key metric now shows how it compares to the period before, so you can see growth and engagement at a glance.
  • Unified view: Revenue, engagement, and audience growth all update together from a single period selection.

Deeper Deliverability Analytics 🔍

We now capture far more detail on every send, so you can diagnose issues and understand your audience:

  • Device and email client breakdowns
  • Mailbox provider data (Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail, and more)
  • Geographic distribution of opens
  • Bounce diagnostics that tell you why something bounced — not just that it did

This makes it dramatically easier to spot deliverability problems early and keep your sends landing in the inbox.

A Completely Rebuilt CSV Import ⬆️

Importing contacts used to be the most tedious part of getting started. Not anymore:

  • Live preview of your file before anything is imported
  • Automatic column mapping that matches your headers to the right fields
  • One-click field creation for any columns that don't have a home yet
  • Live progress so you always know exactly where the import stands

Bringing your list into Audienceful is now genuinely fast — and a lot harder to get wrong.

Publications & the Subscriber Preference Center

Not everyone on your list wants to hear about everything. Today we're shipping two features that give your subscribers real control over what they receive — and give you a healthier, more engaged list as a result.

Publications 📚

You can now organize your sends into distinct publications — separate newsletters your audience can subscribe to independently.

  • Run a weekly newsletter, a product-updates list, and a founder's blog all from one workspace.
  • Let people opt into exactly the ones they care about.
  • Target any send or automation at a specific publication's subscribers.

Instead of one all-or-nothing list, you get focused audiences who actually want each thing you send.

The Subscriber Preference Center 🎛️

Every subscriber now gets a clean, fully branded preference page where they can manage their own subscriptions — no support email required.

  • Pick and choose publications: Subscribers toggle exactly which newsletters they want.
  • On-brand by default: Your logo, your accent color, your headline and intro copy — with a live preview as you set it up.
  • Downgrade instead of leave: When someone's about to unsubscribe, the preference center lets them dial back rather than opt out entirely — which means fewer full unsubscribes and a healthier list.

Why It Matters

Giving subscribers granular control isn't just nice — it's one of the most effective ways to protect your sender reputation. People who get only what they asked for open more, complain less, and stick around longer. Publications and the preference center make that the default.

New Deliverability Tools: Domain Health, DMARC & Blocklist Monitoring

KS

BT
Brian ToddCo-founder at Audienceful

The best email in the world does nothing if it lands in spam. Today we're shipping a dedicated Deliverability area that takes the guesswork out of inbox placement — and makes sure your emails actually get seen.

Your Deliverability, Graded 🎯

Open the new Deliverability dashboard and you'll get an at-a-glance letter grade for your sending setup, along with exactly what's helping or hurting you. No more wondering why opens are low or whether your domain is set up correctly.

Automatic Authentication Checks ✅

We continuously check the records that mailbox providers use to trust your mail:

  • SPF — Is your sending domain authorized?
  • DKIM — Are your messages cryptographically signed?
  • DMARC — Do you have a policy that protects your domain from spoofing?
  • MX and DNS — Are your records configured correctly?

Each check is clearly labeled OK, warning, or critical, with plain-English guidance on how to fix anything that's off. Getting authenticated — the single biggest lever for deliverability — is now something you can actually see and act on.

Blocklist Monitoring 🚫

We keep an eye on the major blocklists and alert you if your sending domain or IP shows up on one. Catching a listing early is the difference between a quick fix and weeks of tanked deliverability.

Sender Reputation at a Glance 📊

Your reputation score is tracked over time, so you can see the impact of list cleaning, better segmentation, and improved engagement — and spot problems before they cost you.

Free Workspaces Land in the Inbox Too 📬

Setting up your own authenticated domain is the gold standard, but it isn't always where you start. Free workspaces now send through an automated, shared warmed sending-domain pool — professionally maintained and monitored — so your emails have a strong reputation behind them from your very first send.

Combined with our list cleaning tools, this gives you an end-to-end picture of your sender health in one place. Keep your grade high, and keep landing in the inbox.

Date-Based Automation Triggers: Birthdays, Anniversaries & More

KS

Brian ToddCo-founder at Audienceful

Some of the highest-converting emails are the ones that arrive at exactly the right moment. Today we're adding a new trigger type to the automation builder: date-based triggers.

Trigger on Any Date 📅

Start an automation on a recurring or one-time date, including:

  • Birthdays — Send a celebration (and maybe a discount) every year, automatically.
  • Anniversaries — Celebrate signup or first-purchase anniversaries to build loyalty.
  • Renewal and expiry dates — Nudge customers ahead of a subscription renewal or a trial ending.
  • Holidays — Schedule seasonal campaigns once and let them run every year.
  • Any custom date field — If you're tracking a date on a contact, you can trigger off of it.

Fire It Exactly When You Want ⏱️

Date triggers come with the timing controls you'd expect:

  • Lead time: Send on the date, or a set number of days before or after it.
  • Recurring or one-time: Repeat every year, or fire just once.
  • Per-audience scoping: Limit a date trigger to a specific audience, so the right people get the right message.

From there, plug into the full power of automations — branch on subscriber data, wait, tag, and track per-email analytics the whole way through.

Set It and Forget It

Build your birthday flow, your renewal reminder, or your holiday campaign once, and it keeps running in the background — quietly driving engagement and revenue while you focus on everything else.

7 New Integrations: Calendly, Typeform, Eventbrite & More

We've been on an integrations tear. Fresh off native CRM sync, we're adding seven more native integrations that turn real activity on the platforms you use into contacts and automated email flows.

Meet the New Integrations 🔌

  • Calendly — Sync invitees and trigger automations on bookings, cancellations, and no-shows.
  • Typeform — Turn every form response into a segmented contact, and fire an email journey on submission.
  • Eventbrite — Sync attendees and trigger emails on registration, check-in, and refunds.
  • Teachable — Sync students and trigger automations on signup and course completion.
  • Thinkific — Sync students and enrollments, and automate emails on signup, enrollment, and completion.
  • Mailchimp — Auto-import your existing Mailchimp contacts to make switching effortless.
  • Framer — Drop Audienceful signup forms straight into your Framer site with a one-click plugin.

Activity Becomes Automation ⚡

These aren't just contact dumps. Each integration feeds an activity-events layer — so real actions on these platforms can trigger automations and even attribute revenue.

That means you can build flows like:

  • New Calendly booking → send a prep email → follow up after the call
  • Typeform submission → route the contact into the right segment based on their answers → start a tailored sequence
  • Course completion in Teachable or Thinkific → send a certificate, then pitch the next course

Combine any of these triggers with the full automation builder — conditional branching, waits, tags, and per-email analytics included.

One Place to Manage Them All

Every one of these lives in the Integration Hub, so connecting, disconnecting, and mapping fields is the same simple flow across the board.

Native CRM Integrations: HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive & More

Brian ToddCo-founder at Audienceful

Right after launching the Integration Hub, we promised more native integrations were coming. Today we're delivering the biggest batch yet: native, two-way sync with the CRMs you already run your business on.

No more exporting CSVs, no more copy-paste, no more drift between systems. Connect your CRM once and your contacts stay in sync automatically.

Eight CRMs, Connected Natively 🔗

You can now sync contacts directly from:

  • HubSpot
  • Salesforce
  • Pipedrive
  • Attio
  • Zoho CRM
  • Close
  • Capsule
  • folk

Most connect with a single click via OAuth. A few (like folk and Teachable) use an API key you generate in a few seconds — either way, setup takes under a minute.

How the Sync Works ⚙️

  • Continuous contact sync: People and their custom fields flow into Audienceful automatically, and updates keep flowing as they change in your CRM.
  • One-time historical import: Backfill all of your existing contacts in a single pass so you start with your full list.
  • Field mapping UI: You decide exactly which CRM fields map into which Audienceful fields — nothing syncs that you don't want.
  • Two-way unsubscribe suppression: When someone opts out in Audienceful, that status is written back to your CRM — and vice versa. Someone who unsubscribes is suppressed everywhere, so you stay compliant on both sides.

Segment and Automate on Synced Data 🎯

Once your contacts are in Audienceful, every synced field becomes usable in audience segments and automation triggers. Target by lifecycle stage, plan tier, deal status, or any field you track in your CRM — then send newsletters and trigger automated journeys off of it.

More on the Way

This is just the first wave. We're actively adding integrations based on what you're asking for. If there's a platform you'd love to see connected, reach out at support@audienceful.com.
