Email audit

Email audit is for teams that need a practical quality review before messages reach a large audience. It helps answer whether an email is ready from a content and operational perspective, not just whether the HTML technically exists.

What an email audit should answer

  • Are the important links valid and reachable?
  • Are the images loading the way we expect?
  • Does the message appear complete and trustworthy?
  • Are there obvious issues that should stop a release or campaign launch?

When to run audits

Use email audit:

  • before a release that changes transactional email templates
  • before a marketing or lifecycle campaign goes wide
  • when QA needs a repeatable quality review step
  • after a captured campaign sample reveals something suspicious
  1. Capture or select the message you want to review.
  2. Check links, images, and visible content quality.
  3. Review any issues that would affect trust, conversion, or support load.
  4. Re-run the audit after fixes before approving the send.
