How to Build an AI Report Generator (Metrics to Slides in One Email)
One email to check on the business — and the investor deck builds itself.
The agent also drops the headline numbers into Slack so the leadership team has context before the meeting:
How it works
Create a report generator at dashboard.carlyassistant.com (or email carly@usecarly.com and describe what you need). Connect your e-commerce, advertising, and presentation tools — Shopify, Meta Ads, Klaviyo, and Google Slides cover the core workflow. The agent pulls live data, builds slides with your formatting, and delivers the finished deck over email. It learns your layout preferences, metric definitions, and reporting cadence over time.

How teams use an AI report generator
- Monthly investor deck — agent pulls revenue from Shopify, ad performance from Meta Ads, email metrics from Klaviyo, site analytics from Google Analytics, and inventory status from Google Sheets, then assembles a 10-slide Google Slides deck and emails the PDF
- Weekly channel performance email — agent compiles revenue by channel (paid, email, organic, direct), ROAS, and top-selling SKUs every Monday at 8am and sends a formatted summary to leadership with WoW comparisons
- Quarterly product performance report — agent pulls sell-through rates, return rates, and margin by SKU from Shopify and Google Sheets, ranks products by contribution margin, and flags underperformers in a Google Docs report
