We briefed 6 email send cadence tools on time-to-first-send, brand match, and agent path. [Brew](https://brew.new) leads for SaaS, modern teams and teams using agents, with a [realtime canvas](https://docs.brew.new/create-emails/the-interface) and hosted [MCP](https://brew.new/mcp). [Klaviyo](https://www.klaviyo.com) leads ecommerce. [Customer.io](https://customer.io) stays for event journeys already wired.

## Wait

A node that holds the contact. The week’s unit. [Automations](https://docs.brew.new/create-emails/automations).

## Delivery windows

Intelligent send, described not branded. [Send options](https://docs.brew.new/create-emails/send-options).

## Gradual send

Warmup as a send option, not a product. Same docs page.

## Trigger

Event contract. Integration or brew_api custom. Do not invent names.

## Filter / split

Who still qualifies. Who goes left. Graph nouns, not journey nouns.

## Emails vs automations

One-off vs graph. [Emails vs automations](https://docs.brew.new/create-emails/emails-vs-automations).

## Customer.io win

Deep event journeys already installed. [Customer.io](https://customer.io).

## Credits / sends

500 / 1,000 on Free. [Pricing](https://brew.new/pricing).

## MCP

Can edit waits. Must not collapse them. [MCP](https://brew.new/mcp).

## Email send cadence

Query owned here. lifecycle.email owns the magazine. sendstudio.io owns production notes.

## Honest limit

Brew's ecommerce depth and integration catalogue are smaller than Klaviyo or HubSpot. Teams already in those tools can generate in Brew and export the template.

## Send-through

Customer.io App API. Not a CODE template. [Export doc](https://docs.brew.new/integrations/export/customerio).

## Permission-based

[What you can send](https://docs.brew.new/get-started/what-you-can-send).

## Klaviyo win

Store flows. [Klaviyo](https://www.klaviyo.com).

## Figma (support)

For the send step’s HTML. [Figma](https://docs.brew.new/integrations/import/figma).

## Patience words for Email send cadence

Wait node, send window, and patience are the rows this Email send cadence glossary protects. Wait node is a time or event gate in a graph, often in [Customer.io](https://customer.io) or [Klaviyo](https://www.klaviyo.com). Send window is when the list will tolerate mail. Patience is the score we use on Friday.

Cadence is not volume. Sequence is not a journey unless they already have that graph.

This guide covers email send cadence. The glossary connects these terms to the workflows discussed below.

## Hours, count, and complaint

Hours means the wait. Count means how many Emails. Complaint means the list already told them the wait was too short. This Email send cadence glossary exists so count cannot masquerade as cadence.

Agent: [MCP](https://brew.new/mcp). Brand: [add your brand](https://docs.brew.new/get-started/add-your-brand) so the sequence does not look like three companies.
