- Description: Your product runs on email - does it work? Get sending data from 400B+ emails, deliverability benchmarks, and an EU requirement most EMEA teams haven't clocked yet.
- Author: Product-Led Alliance

A data-driven look at what's really happening behind the emails your product sends, from account activation to payment confirmations, based on sending data from 400+ billion emails, including findings EMEA teams can't afford to miss. 

# Silent product failures, hiding in your inbox

Account activation, password resets, payment confirmations. These are the emails your product depends on, and this report uses real sending data to show where that experience is quietly breaking down. 

It covers what "delivered" actually means versus what lands in the inbox, and where a new EU requirement is about to catch teams off guard. Activation and retention live or die on details like these and this report has the data.
