Executive summary

A single executive view that connects finance, payments, CRM, marketing, and analytics tools, computes the KPIs and trends leaders care about, and writes a plain-English summary with prioritized recommendations — on demand, not once a quarter.

Business problem

Business data lives in silos — QuickBooks, Stripe, Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Analytics. Owners lack a unified, current picture, and building reports by hand is slow, so decisions lag the data.

Architecture

AWS services

Amazon API Gateway

Networking
  • Dashboard data endpoint

AWS Lambda

Compute
  • Pull + normalize connector data
  • Compute KPIs and trends

Connector adapters

Integration
  • QuickBooks, Stripe, Salesforce, HubSpot, GA4 (OAuth)

Amazon Bedrock

AI / ML
  • Executive summary
  • Prioritized recommendations

Amazon DynamoDB

Database
  • Cached snapshots
  • Historical trend storage

Amazon CloudWatch

Observability
  • Refresh logs, metrics, alarms

Data flow

  1. 1

    The executive opens the dashboard and selects sources and a time range.

  2. 2

    Lambda pulls metrics from each connected system (via OAuth adapters), normalizing them into common KPIs.

  3. 3

    KPIs, deltas, and trend series are computed and cached in DynamoDB.

  4. 4

    Bedrock writes an executive summary and severity-tagged recommendations grounded in the numbers.

  5. 5

    The page renders KPI cards, trend charts, the summary, and recommendations.

Security considerations

  • Connector credentials in Secrets Manager; least-privilege access.
  • Read-only connector scopes wherever possible.
  • Cached data encrypted at rest; tenant isolation.
  • No financial data used to train public models.

Cost considerations

  • Self-managed metric storage in DynamoDB avoids a heavy analytics platform.
  • Bedrock summary generation is the main per-refresh cost.
  • Scheduled refreshes (e.g., nightly) control both cost and freshness.

Scalability

  • Add data sources as new adapters without changing the dashboard.
  • Scheduled + on-demand refresh via EventBridge.
  • Multi-entity roll-ups for franchises/multi-location.

Deployment roadmap

Phase 1 — Connect sources

Weeks 1–2
  • OAuth to the client's tools
  • Map fields to common KPIs

Phase 2 — KPIs & narrative

Weeks 3–4
  • Compute trends and deltas
  • Tune the AI summary + recommendations

Phase 3 — Deliver

Weeks 5–6
  • Ship the dashboard + scheduled digests
  • Iterate on the metrics that matter

Future enhancements

  • Forecasting and anomaly alerts.
  • Scheduled email/Slack digests.
  • Drill-down from KPI to source records.
  • Goal tracking and variance-to-plan.
