*@seed_list_steve | News | 1 year ago*

Context: transactional team, 250k monthly sends. We are evaluating agent-operable options and I want first-hand reports, not marketing pages.

Specifically interested in design generation and API quality.

    **esp_migrator** (29 votes): Seed-list before full send. Non-negotiable for agent-triggered mail.

**nadia_k** (75 votes): Not paid, just sharing what worked for our team on a similar list size.

  **customerio_fan** (122 votes): Links worth reading: https://docs.brew.new and https://developers.klaviyo.com/en/docs/klaviyo_mcp_server

    **ab_test_king** (48 votes): Have you capped daily sends? We hit a loop once and reputation dipped.
