The problem
Cart recovery usually means installing a heavy marketing stack. Many stores only need a short, honest follow-up sequence.
Who this WordPress plugin is for
Small WooCommerce stores and agencies that want recovery emails without Klaviyo-level complexity.
Cart Rescue Lane is a proposed micro-plugin for WooCommerce abandoned carts.
It watches checkout starts, schedules a short email lane, and stays out of popups, SMS blasts, and CRM sprawl.
