Inspiration

As founders, we were spending hours every week manually generating KPI reports for investors, struggling to compile metrics from platforms like Stripe, Google Analytics, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Shopify. The process was time-consuming, repetitive, and still lacked the insights we actually needed to make growth decisions. We realized we weren’t alone—and that business teams everywhere face the same challenge.

What it does

FunnelFuel is an AI-powered growth intelligence platform that:

Aggregates KPIs from multiple sources (Stripe, GA, IG, TikTok, LinkedIn, Shopify, etc.) Automates reporting, performance monitoring, and anomaly detection Surfaces trends, identifies top-performing content, and tracks ROI across the full funnel Offers real-time, plain-English insights through NLP (e.g. "Why did engagement drop this week?") Delivers predictive recommendations for content, channels, and campaign success It's like having an AI growth analyst in your corner—24/7.

How we built it

We connected APIs from key platforms (Google Analytics, Stripe, Instagram, Shopify), ran anomaly detection script for real-time alerts, and used LangChain + OpenAI to power the NLP insight engine. For competitor benchmarking, we leveraged Apify for scraping and trend analysis, and used Tavus to auto-generate video KPI updates.

The frontend is built for simplicity and flexibility, with customizable dashboards and Slack/email alerts. We used lightweight orchestration via Python, Flask, and serverless functions.

Challenges we ran into

API limitations and rate limits across platforms (especially social media) Mapping KPIs across platforms into a consistent, intuitive funnel structure Keeping NLP responses fast, relevant, and jargon-free Getting real-time data into the dashboard without delays or stale reporting

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Integrated anomaly detection, NLP, competitor insights, and multi-platform data in a unified tool Created a clean and intuitive dashboard that makes growth insights feel effortless Our demo video using Tavus felt like magic—and got incredible feedback

What we learned

Founders and marketers don’t just want data—they want clarity, direction, and speed Simple questions like “Why is traffic down?” can unlock massive value when answered well There’s a huge opportunity in bridging data aggregation + AI-driven recommendation systems Growth teams are flying blind because they can’t make sense of what’s working fast enough

What's next for Funnel Fuel
