The problem it solves

You know traffic matters but logging into your analytics dashboard every week rarely happens. Important shifts in visitors or top pages go unnoticed until something breaks.

Who it fits

Website owners, indie business operators, and marketing teams who want a recurring pulse on site performance.

How it works

  1. Every Monday morning the automation runs on its own
  2. It pulls the past week's visitor, pageview, and bounce data from your analytics account
  3. It identifies your top pages and top traffic sources
  4. A formatted report is emailed to you
  5. A short summary is posted to your Slack channel
What you get

Weekly traffic patterns you notice immediately

You start every week with a clear picture of your site's visitors, top pages, and traffic sources delivered straight to your inbox and Slack.

What you get

A weekly email report and a Slack message summarizing your site traffic.

What you need

A Plausible Analytics account, a Gmail account, and optionally a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
