We love Mechanic! It allows us to automate our post-purchase flow for 10s of thousands of users effectively. They’re team is amazingly responsive, the community of developers around it are incredibly helpful and we wouldn’t be able to run our store without it. Definitely recommend for any small business to enterprise store!
