The problem

No-code builders leverage powerful tools like Zapier, Make (formerly Integromat), or n8n to create intricate workflows, often involving sending automated emails from a custom domain for everything from internal alerts to customer confirmations. When these critical emails fail to deliver due to DMARC authentication issues, entire automated processes break down, leading to missed opportunities, operational inefficiencies, and a loss of trust in your systems. Debugging these silent failures without proper visibility is incredibly frustrating.

The complexity arises because your no-code platform often acts as an intermediary, sending emails through another service (e.g., SendGrid, Gmail SMTP). This chain of sending can make DMARC alignment tricky to configure and even harder to diagnose when issues arise. Raw DMARC reports are unreadable, offering no clear indication of which part of your Zapier or Make workflow is causing authentication failures, leaving you with unreliable automations and wasted time trying to troubleshoot.

How Aligned solves it

Parses your DMARC aggregate reports to reveal the authentication status of emails sent via Zapier, Make, or n8n.

Pinpoints specific sending services linked to your no-code workflows that are failing SPF or DKIM alignment.

Provides actionable insights to ensure your automated emails consistently pass DMARC, securing and stabilizing your workflows.
