I just developed and launched my first Stripe "dashboard app" (https://docs.stripe.com/stripe-apps) - which is a way Stripe allows developers to embed custom UIs in the Stripe dashboard and distribute through an app marketplace. I thought this was pretty cool, so I wanted to give it a shot.
The app helps you understand your customers by automatically researching firmographic information and recent news about the companies buying your product - if the customer uses a work email. It uses the new OpenAI Responses API to do the research - so results are not always correct, but working on it! This is especially true for smaller companies that may not have much public information available.
It's basic for now - but it allows you to answer simple questions about who's buying your product, and gives you a starting point to find out more about them.
The app is free, and I have more features planned, including aggregate reporting over all customers, to answer deeper questions like:
* What industries do our best customers come from?
* Do we sell more to large companies or small companies?
* What's our ICP?
* What's the geographic breakdown of our customers this month?
etc...
I'd love to know what people think - I'm open to feedback and would love to tailor the next set of features based on specific requests. So please let me know if there are workflows or insights you'd like to be able to see using this information. Thanks!
