What you can automate today

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

Sync SPINS retail scan data into Power BI datasets automatically

Pull weekly retail sales performance, velocity metrics, and ACV distribution data from SPINS directly into Power BI semantic models. Redbird maps product hierarchies, retail channels, and time periods so your dashboards refresh with the latest market data without manual imports.

Build automated category trend reports with SPINS market share data

Combine SPINS category growth rates, brand penetration metrics, and competitive benchmarks with your internal sales data in Power BI. Redbird structures SPINS trend data to align with your existing product taxonomy and account hierarchies for seamless cross-analysis.

Alert sales teams when SPINS shows distribution gains or velocity drops

Monitor SPINS ACV growth, units per store, and velocity trends in Power BI. When key performance thresholds are crossed — new account placements, declining turns, or competitive share shifts — Redbird triggers notifications with context from both systems so teams can act fast.

Enrich Power BI dashboards with SPINS consumer insight and demographic data

Layer SPINS shopper behavior, basket composition, and household penetration metrics onto your existing Power BI sales reports. Redbird matches SPINS consumer segments to your brand and SKU hierarchies, giving commercial teams deeper context on who's buying and why.

Archive historical SPINS performance data for long-term trend analysis

Capture weekly SPINS snapshots — sales, distribution, pricing, and promo activity — and store them in Power BI dataflows or connected data lakes. Redbird preserves granular time-series data so you can analyze multi-year category evolution and seasonal patterns without SPINS platform limits.

Automate new product launch tracking across SPINS and internal forecasts

When new SKUs appear in SPINS retail scan data, Redbird flags them in Power BI and cross-references launch plans, velocity targets, and distribution goals from your internal systems. Commercial teams see actual vs. planned performance in unified dashboards without manual reconciliation.

Live in four steps

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

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Power BI and SPINS 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 how SPINS structures retail scan data, market hierarchies, and category taxonomies — and how Power BI organizes semantic models, DAX measures, and report visuals.

AI that reads SPINS schemas and Power BI data models

Redbird maps SPINS product hierarchies, channel classifications, retailer breakouts, and time period schemas to your Power BI datasets automatically. It recognizes when SPINS brand names need to align with internal SKU masters, when ACV metrics should aggregate to account-level KPIs, and when velocity calculations require custom DAX measures. You get clean, analysis-ready CPG data flowing into Power BI without building custom ETL pipelines or writing transformation scripts.

Faster than exporting SPINS CSVs and rebuilding Power BI reports manually

No custom connectors, Python scripts, or weekly data refresh rituals

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Power BI and SPINS 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 Power BI or SPINS.

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 Power BI into SPINS, or from SPINS back into Power BI. 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.
