What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Sync Semrush keyword ranking data into staging models for transformation

Pull daily keyword position tracking, search volume, and SERP features from Semrush into your warehouse as raw staging tables. Automatically trigger dbt runs to transform this data into clean, tested analytics models. Build historical ranking trends with full lineage documentation.

Load competitor backlink profiles into dbt models for competitive analysis

Extract competitor domain authority, backlink counts, and referring domains from Semrush at scheduled intervals. Feed these into dbt staging layers where you can join with internal performance data. Create tested models that benchmark your SEO performance against competitors.

Push dbt-modeled content performance metrics back to Semrush custom reports

After transforming multi-source content data in dbt—combining CMS metrics, traffic, conversions, and SEO signals—send aggregated performance scores back to Semrush. Enable marketing teams to view holistic content ROI alongside native SEO metrics without switching tools.

Alert SEO teams when dbt model tests fail on critical ranking tables

Monitor data quality tests in dbt models built on Semrush ranking imports. When unique key violations, null checks, or freshness tests fail on SEO performance tables, automatically notify marketing ops in their workflow. Prevent broken dashboards from stale or malformed search data.

Enrich dbt customer segment models with Semrush traffic source attribution

Append organic search landing pages, keyword intent categories, and traffic estimates from Semrush to your dbt customer models. Combine first-party behavioral data with SEO intelligence to understand which segments discover you through search and what queries drive high-value users.

Automate dbt documentation refresh when Semrush project configurations change

When you add new tracked keywords, domains, or competitor projects in Semrush, automatically trigger dbt documentation regeneration. Keep data dictionaries and lineage graphs current as your SEO monitoring scope evolves, ensuring analytics engineers always reference up-to-date source definitions.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize dbt and Semrush with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands dbt's data transformation layer—models, tests, snapshots, and seeds—and Semrush's marketing analytics structure, from keyword databases to domain authority metrics.

AI that speaks both data engineering and SEO analytics

Redbird maps Semrush API endpoints—Position Tracking, Backlink Analytics, Domain Overview, Keyword Magic Tool—to dbt staging conventions automatically. It recognizes your warehouse schemas, identifies appropriate incremental strategies for daily ranking snapshots, and suggests data quality tests specific to search metrics. The AI understands when to use dbt snapshots for tracking ranking changes over time versus incremental models for cumulative backlink growth, preserving historical SEO performance without manual configuration.
