The problem it solves

You have no easy way to know if today's sales are on track without pulling reports by hand, and cancellations can quietly eat into revenue without anyone noticing. By the time you check your dashboard, a slow day or a wave of refunds has already gone unaddressed.

Who it fits

An e-commerce owner or operations manager running a WooCommerce store.

How it works

  1. Every day, the system pulls the last 24 hours of orders from WooCommerce
  2. It separates paid orders from cancelled ones and calculates total revenue, order count, and top-selling products
  3. It compares today's revenue against your target threshold
  4. A Slack message is sent with a sales spike alert or a status update, including how much cancellations cut into revenue
What you get

Today's revenue trend at a glance

You get a daily Slack alert showing how your store's revenue is trending, including how much cancellations are cutting into it.

What you get

A daily Slack message showing revenue, top products, and cancellation impact, with an alert when sales spike.

What you need

A WooCommerce store and 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.
