What it does

Listens for the precise event when a trial bumps against a usage ceiling and immediately sends an upgrade email that names the limit, shows what they were trying to do, and links to the plan that removes the cap.

When to use it

Use this for limit-driven conversion, where the strongest buying moment is the second a user is blocked. Reaching them in real time, with the specific friction named, converts far better than a delayed digest.

How it works

  1. 1A webhook receives the `limit_reached` usage event from your product in real time.
  2. 2A logic step confirms the account is on a trial and identifies which limit fired (seats, runs, or storage).
  3. 3An action looks up the account owner and the smallest plan that lifts that specific limit.
  4. 4A Gmail message goes out immediately, naming the blocked action and recommending the unblocking plan.
  5. 5The flow records the prompt against the limit type so the same ceiling isn't nagged repeatedly.
