   We have identified the cause of the issue affecting some services. Our team is working on implementing a fix to mitigate the impact. What you may notice: - Errors or timeouts when accessing or updating contacts in the application and via the Contacts API - Campaign reports showing outdated open statistics, and delayed open-event webhooks - Delays in transactional email delivery - Delayed SMS delivery status updates - Automation workflows involving contacts may run with delays Important: no data has been lost. All emails, events, and status updates are safely queued and will be delivered and processed automatically once service is restored — campaign statistics will backfill on their own; no action is needed on your side. This issue started at 09:34 UTC on August 26, 2026. We sincerely apologize for the disruption. Next update within 30 minutes. We will continue to share updates as we progress toward resolution.

   We have implemented a fix and restored the affected database cluster. Contact operations in the application and API are back to normal, and transactional email delivery has caught up. Remaining queued events are now being processed: campaign open statistics and open-event webhooks are backfilling and may appear delayed for a short while longer. SMS delivery status updates are recovering as well. No data has been lost — all queued emails, events, and updates are being processed automatically, and campaign statistics will complete backfilling on their own. No action is needed on your side. We are monitoring the platform closely to confirm full recovery. Next update within 30 minutes.
