the problem

How do you get one set of numbers you can trust?

GA4 says one thing, Stripe says another, and your booking system disagrees with both. Matching them by hand takes hours, and the answer is still fuzzy.

How askotter handles it

askotter reads GitHub and Mailchimp side by side, so it can combine your accounts into one clean report you can ask questions of.

A person checks the result before it reaches you. This is part of our website design for small business work.

matching the records

How GitHub and Mailchimp records line up

GitHub and Mailchimp share no customer or visit identifier. askotter puts them on one timeline instead, so a change in GitHub deployments can be read against what Mailchimp recorded in the same hours.

What combined reporting uses from each

Combined reporting needs a shared identifier or a shared time grain.

From GitHub that means deploy timestamps. From Mailchimp it means subscriber emails.

Mailchimp is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.

What each tool sees on its ownShow less

GitHub on its own

GitHub knows what code changed and when. It cannot tell you whether that change cost you leads or sales.

Timing. GitHub timestamps every commit, merge and deployment to the second.

Access. A GitHub App or token with read access to the repositories you choose.

Mailchimp on its own

Mailchimp sees who received and clicked. It cannot see what the reader did after landing on the site.

Timing. Mailchimp reports opens and clicks per campaign. Apple Mail Privacy Protection inflates opens, so clicks are the steadier signal.

Access. The Mailchimp Marketing API with an OAuth connection.
