Weekly KPI digest
Ceven gathers the week's numbers from every tool, drafts a plain-language digest, and holds it for an owner to approve.
Why the weekly numbers take half a day to assemble
The weekly KPI readout is the same gather-and-format chore every week. Someone exports pipeline from Salesforce, revenue from Stripe, product usage from Mixpanel, and financials from NetSuite, drops it all into Google Sheets, and writes up what moved and why. The numbers are not hard to find, they are just scattered across tools that do not share a view, and pulling them into one story takes a capable person half a day. By the time the digest goes out, it is describing a week that has already ended, and next week the same person does it again. The work is pure assembly, which is exactly the kind of thing that should not need a human every time.
How the workflow builds the digest
You describe the outcome in plain language, and Ceven builds a workflow that pulls the week's figures from Salesforce, Stripe, Mixpanel, and NetSuite, lands them in Google Sheets, and drafts a plain-language digest that says what changed, by how much, and against what baseline. An AI step writes the narrative and calls out the moves worth attention, while every figure stays tied to the system it came from. The finished digest can be delivered to the team in Slack on a schedule you set. Those source systems stay the record, because Ceven runs around them rather than becoming one.
A hosted dashboard behind the digest
A weekly digest answers the moment it is sent, but people ask follow-up questions all week. Behind the digest, Ceven can build and host a no-code dashboard that shows the same KPIs live and refreshes as the workflow reruns, so anyone can open one link and see the current numbers without pinging the analyst. It reads from Salesforce, Stripe, Mixpanel, and NetSuite without becoming a system of record, so your tools stay authoritative while the view stays current. The digest tells the story each week; the dashboard answers the questions in between.
A person approves before it posts
Even a readout gets a human check before it goes out. The drafted digest lands in front of an owner, who can correct a number, reword a takeaway, hold it, or approve it to post. Once approved, the workflow delivers it to Slack and logs the run to the audit trail, so there is an exportable record of what was reported and who approved it. That keeps a fast, automated digest from ever posting an unreviewed claim to the whole team.
Getting started
You can start free with no credit card. Connect Google Sheets, Salesforce, Stripe, Mixpanel, NetSuite, and Slack, describe the metrics you report each week, and Ceven builds the digest workflow, and the dashboard behind it, across its library of more than a thousand tools. Everything runs around the systems you already use, so your data never leaves the tools that own it. What used to take half a day of assembly becomes a quick approval of a draft that is already written.
Frequently asked
Does the digest post to the whole team automatically?
No. Ceven drafts the digest and holds it at an approval gate. An owner reviews and approves, and only then is it delivered to Slack.
Which tools does it gather from?
It connects across more than a thousand tools, including Google Sheets, Salesforce, Stripe, Mixpanel, NetSuite, and Slack, so it can pull metrics from wherever they live and deliver wherever your team reads.
Where does the data stay?
In your existing systems. Ceven runs the digest and the dashboard around those tools rather than becoming the record of truth, and every run is written to an exportable audit trail.
Can we get a live view instead of just a weekly note?
Yes. Ceven can build and host a no-code dashboard that refreshes as the workflow reruns, so the weekly digest is backed by an always-current view of the same KPIs.
