Implementation Process: 25 Minutes

Minutes 0-10: Connect Data Sources

data_sources:
  postgresql:
    connection: "postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db"
    tables: ["sales", "customers", "products"]
    refresh: "real-time"

  google_sheets:
    spreadsheet_id: "abc123xyz"
    sheets: ["Revenue", "Costs"]
    refresh: "hourly"

  api:
    endpoint: "https://api.example.com/data"
    auth: "bearer_token"
    refresh: "daily"

Minutes 10-20: Define Analysis Rules

analysis_config = {
    "metrics": {
        "revenue_growth": {
            "calculation": "compare_period_over_period",
            "alert_threshold": {"drop": 10, "spike": 50}
        },
        "customer_churn": {
            "calculation": "monthly_churn_rate",
            "prediction": "next_3_months"
        }
    },
    "segments": ["region", "product_category", "customer_tier"],
    "ai_insights": True
}

Minutes 20-25: Configure Reports

reports: {
  daily_dashboard: {
    schedule: "0 8 * * *",  // 8 AM daily
    metrics: ["revenue", "active_users", "conversion_rate"],
    delivery: ["email:team@company.com", "slack:#analytics"],
    format: "pdf_and_interactive"
  },
  weekly_deep_dive: {
    schedule: "0 9 * * MON",
    analysis: ["trends", "predictions", "anomalies"],
    delivery: ["email:executives@company.com"],
    format: "powerpoint"
  }
}

How It Works

Data Sources → Extraction → Cleaning → Analysis → Insights → Reports
     ↓             ↓          ↓          ↓         ↓          ↓
  Real-time    Schema    Transform    AI ML    Generate   Deliver
  Sync      Detection   & Enrich   Models   Commentary  Multi-channel

Natural Language Query Examples

Simply ask questions in plain English:

"What were our top 5 products by revenue last month?"
"Show me customer churn trends over the past year"
"Compare sales performance across regions"
"Which marketing channels have the best ROI?"
"Predict next quarter's revenue based on current trends"
"Alert me if daily active users drop below 10,000"

The AI understands context and generates the right queries automatically.

Code Examples

Python Integration

from draftnrun import DataPipeline

pipeline = DataPipeline()

# Connect to your database
pipeline.add_source(
    type="postgresql",
    connection="postgresql://localhost/mydb",
    tables=["transactions", "users"]
)

# Ask questions in natural language
insights = pipeline.analyze(
    "What are the revenue trends by product category over the last 6 months?"
)

# Generate automated report
report = pipeline.create_report(
    metrics=["revenue", "growth_rate", "customer_count"],
    format="pdf",
    include_predictions=True
)

report.send_to(["team@company.com", "slack:#analytics"])

JavaScript/TypeScript Integration

import { DataAnalyzer } from '@draftnrun/sdk';

const analyzer = new DataAnalyzer({
  sources: [
    { type: 'bigquery', dataset: 'analytics' },
    { type: 'sheets', id: 'abc123' }
  ]
});

// Real-time analysis
const insights = await analyzer.query(
  'Compare conversion rates across traffic sources'
);

// Schedule automated reports
analyzer.scheduleReport({
  name: 'Weekly Performance',
  schedule: 'every Monday at 9am',
  recipients: ['leadership@company.com'],
  format: 'interactive_dashboard'
});

SQL Query Generation

# Natural language to SQL
query = pipeline.to_sql(
    "Show me customers who haven't purchased in 90 days"
)
# Generates: SELECT * FROM customers WHERE
#            last_purchase_date < CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '90 days'

# Execute and analyze
results = pipeline.execute_and_analyze(query)
print(results.ai_summary)  # AI-generated insights
