Short answer

Why did my transactional email fail to deliver?

Your agent investigates the failure by pulling real-time event logs and specific email data from Brevo. It identifies the exact bounce reason or delivery error so you can fix the issue immediately. You'll see the specific error codes and recipient status below.

Where every issue lands.

Troubleshooting outcomes

The AI categorizes your delivery data into actionable insights.

ERROR

Bounce analysis

The agent uses event logs to pinpoint why a message hit a hard bounce or a soft bounce. You get the specific reason provided by the recipient's mail server.

STATUS

Delivery tracking

Your agent checks the current state of a specific transactional message. You'll know if it's pending, delivered, or blocked.

STATS

Trend detection

The agent pulls aggregate statistics to see if a sudden spike in failures indicates a larger reputation issue. You get a clear view of your recent delivery health.

HUMAN

Manual fixes

The AI identifies the problem, but you must decide whether to update your mailing list or adjust your sending frequency. It flags the issues that require your direct intervention.

The workflow

What your AI does when a delivery fails.

Instead of digging through the Brevo dashboard, your agent does the heavy lifting for you.

  1. Identify the failure

    The agent scans recent activity to find specific error events related to your transactional messages.

    list_events
  2. Analyze the error

    It pulls the specific details for a failed message to see the exact bounce reason or SMTP error.

    get_transactional_email
  3. Check delivery health

    The agent looks at broader delivery patterns to see if the failure is an isolated incident or a trend.

    get_email_statistics_events
  4. Summarize findings

    The agent compiles the logs and error codes into a plain English explanation of what went wrong.

    The agent can access transactional email data to troubleshoot delivery, but it only accesses the fields provided by the Brevo API.

    The agent pulls data directly from Brevo's event logs, so you see the most recent delivery events available in your account.
