What you can automate today

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

Trigger personalized email campaigns from real-time user events in Kafka

Listen to product usage, purchase, or engagement events streaming through Kafka and instantly add subscribers to targeted Mailchimp segments or trigger drip sequences. Marketing responds to customer behavior in real-time, not hours later from batch syncs.

Build dynamic Mailchimp audience segments from Kafka clickstream and behavior data

Stream clickstream events, page views, feature usage, and conversion signals from Kafka directly into Mailchimp custom fields and tags. Segment audiences based on actual product behavior without exporting event logs or building custom integrations.

Push Mailchimp campaign performance and engagement events back into Kafka topics

Stream email opens, clicks, unsubscribes, and conversion events from Mailchimp into your Kafka data pipeline for real-time analytics and downstream processing. Close the loop between marketing campaigns and your event-driven architecture.

Enrich Kafka event streams with Mailchimp subscriber status and engagement history

Append email subscription status, campaign engagement scores, and audience segment data from Mailchimp to user events flowing through Kafka. Every downstream system gets a complete picture of customer engagement across channels.

Auto-update Mailchimp subscriber fields from real-time transactional events in Kafka

Keep subscriber profiles current with purchase history, feature tier changes, account status updates, and behavioral metrics streaming through Kafka. Customer data stays synchronized across your stack without scheduled batch jobs or manual imports.

Archive Kafka email event data to Mailchimp for campaign attribution reporting

Route conversion events, revenue signals, and attribution data from Kafka back to Mailchimp to measure true campaign ROI. Marketing teams see the full customer journey from email click to conversion without switching between analytics platforms.

Live in four steps

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

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Kafka and Mailchimp 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 AI understands Kafka's event schemas and partition structures alongside Mailchimp's audience fields, tags, and merge fields—no custom mapping configuration required.

AI that reads Kafka topics and Mailchimp audience schemas

Redbird automatically parses your Kafka message formats—whether JSON, Avro, or Protobuf—and maps event properties to Mailchimp subscriber fields, tags, and segments. The AI understands timestamp formats, nested event payloads, consumer group offsets, and Mailchimp's merge field constraints. Point Redbird at your topics and audiences, describe what should sync, and it builds the transformation logic without writing a single line of code.

Auto-parse Kafka JSON, Avro, and Protobuf schemas
Map event properties to Mailchimp merge fields and tags
Handle nested payloads and array transformations
Respect Mailchimp rate limits and batch operations

faster than building custom Kafka consumers and Mailchimp API integrations

No Kafka Connect plugins, custom deserializers, or API client libraries to maintain

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Kafka and Mailchimp simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Kafka or Mailchimp.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Kafka into Mailchimp, or from Mailchimp back into Kafka. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.
