Redbird AI bridges cloud storage and event streaming, so your teams stop manually polling folders for changes, exporting CSVs to trigger data pipelines, or building custom scripts to turn document updates into real-time events. Automate the flow between file storage and your event-driven architecture.
Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.
Automatically detect when data files land in designated Drive folders and publish their contents to Kafka topics. Redbird parses file formats, chunks large datasets, and handles schema validation so downstream consumers receive clean, structured events without manual ETL.
Monitor specific Drive folders for report completion—when analysts drop final deliverables or scheduled exports finish, Redbird publishes events to Kafka to kick off downstream workflows. Eliminates manual notifications and ensures real-time awareness across data pipelines.
Automatically write Kafka message batches to Google Drive as structured files—JSON, CSV, or Parquet—organized by date, topic, or partition. Perfect for compliance, auditing, or enabling non-technical teams to access streaming data without Kafka clients.
Consume Kafka topics containing metrics, analytics, or monitoring data, then write formatted reports to Google Drive on schedules or event triggers. Redbird handles aggregation, formatting, and folder organization so stakeholders get auto-updating Sheets and Docs without manual exports.
Track permission changes, file shares, deletions, and moves in Drive, publishing structured events to Kafka for centralized audit logs. Enables real-time compliance monitoring and security workflows without querying Drive APIs repeatedly.
When events flow through Kafka, Redbird fetches referenced files or configuration documents from Drive to enrich payloads with metadata, lookup tables, or business context. Keeps event streams self-contained while centralizing reference data in familiar Drive folders.
No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.
Authorize Google Drive and Kafka with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.
Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.
Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.
Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.
Redbird understands Drive's file structure, permission models, and MIME types alongside Kafka's topics, partitions, message schemas, and serialization formats—bridging human-readable documents and machine-optimized event streams.
Redbird's AI parses CSV headers, JSON structures, spreadsheet schemas, and document metadata from Google Drive, then intelligently maps them to Kafka message formats—Avro, JSON, Protobuf. It handles pagination for large files, detects schema changes, manages serialization, and routes data to the correct topics and partitions. On the reverse, it batches Kafka messages into readable file formats with proper organization, naming conventions, and sharing permissions.
faster than building custom file watchers and Kafka producers
Redbird can pull from Google Drive and Kafka simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.
Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Google Drive or Kafka.
SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.
Push data from Google Drive into Kafka, or from Kafka back into Google Drive. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.
Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.
Start automations from any file event in Google Drive or any message in your Kafka topics—no custom integrations needed.
Trigger when any file or specific file types are uploaded to monitored Drive folders.
Detect when existing files are edited, with options to filter by file type or folder path.
Trigger when files are shared externally or permissions are modified for audit workflows.
Write new files to specified Drive locations with automatic naming and organization.
Modify Sheets, Docs, or data files in place with new content or appended rows.
Generate sharing links with specified access levels and expiration settings.
Trigger on messages published to specified Kafka topics with optional key or value filters.
Detect when consumer lag exceeds thresholds for alerting or workflow adjustments.
Trigger when a defined number of messages or time window is reached for batching operations.
Write events to Kafka topics with proper serialization, keys, and partition routing.
Publish collections of events efficiently with transaction support and ordering guarantees.
Register or evolve schemas in Kafka's schema registry for Avro or Protobuf formats.
Stop building custom bridges between file storage and event streams. Redbird connects Google Drive and Kafka in minutes, turning document workflows into real-time data pipelines without writing producers, consumers, or API polling scripts.
