Short answer

How can I track my plugin sales and payouts?

Your AI client pulls sales history and payout records directly from Craft CMS. You can ask for specific dates, plugin names, or total amounts to get the data you need. Here is how it works.

Data outcomes

What your AI finds

Your queries turn into specific financial data points.

SALES

Revenue history

The AI retrieves transaction records based on your request. You'll see exactly what was sold and when.

PAYOUTS

Payment tracking

Get a clear list of historical payouts. Your AI identifies the amounts and dates for every payment sent.

TRENDS

Revenue patterns

Ask for comparisons between months or quarters. The AI looks at the data to show you how sales are moving.

HUMAN

Manual updates

The AI only reads data. You still need to use the Craft CMS dashboard if you want to change a price or refund a customer.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask a question.

The AI acts as the interface between your chat and your Craft CMS data.

  1. Fetch sales

    When you ask about earnings, the AI pulls the relevant transaction records.

  2. Check payouts

    If you ask about money sent to your account, the AI looks up your payment history.

    list_payout_history

  3. Filter data

    The AI uses the retrieved records to narrow down results by date or plugin name.
