What pulls against what
- rapid recovery vs. durable diagnosis
- freshness targets vs. historical fidelity
- connector change vs. downstream assumptions
What is at stake
Late inventory signals turn useful lifecycle messages into stale notifications. Restoring freshness protects both conversion timing and customer trust
Why Klaviyo
This matters because lifecycle messaging often depends on commerce events being useful at the moment they arrive.
