Mixpanel, answered in plain words.
Ask how the funnel moved, who is in the cohort, what an event means. Cedric runs the query in Mixpanel and proposes any change before saving.

- Mixpanel has the answer; the wait is for someone who knows which report to open.
- Ask in plain words: the signup funnel this month against last, week-two retention for the new cohort, how often people use the export.
- Cedric reads the event and property definitions, so "what does checkout_started mean" gets the catalogued answer, not a guess.
- Releases and notable dates go on the charts as annotations, and events or profile updates can be sent in, batches of past events included.
- Data-deletion requests are irreversible, so Cedric names the person and asks first, and large exports are paged within Mixpanel's rate limits.
What can a Mixpanel AI agent do?
Most of what a team wants from Mixpanel is a number with a shape around it. A Mixpanel AI agent runs segmentation, funnel, retention and frequency queries and returns the numbers as an answer in the channel, so the question about drop-off between step two and step three does not wait for a dashboard. Cedric lists and inspects saved cohorts and pulls a cohort's members, and looks up the event and property definitions catalogued for a project, which is how he can explain what is actually being tracked. That is the everyday shape of an AI data analyst.
He writes too, with a proposal first. Cedric records product events with custom properties for a project, including batches of past events when something was tracked late, and creates or updates user profiles and group profiles, setting, incrementing or removing properties. He adds annotations that mark releases or notable dates on the charts, and reads them back, so a dip on a graph can be matched to the deploy that caused it.
For deeper work, Cedric exports raw event data for a date range so it can be analyzed or archived elsewhere. He can also submit data-deletion or data-retrieval requests for a specific person and check on their status, which is what a privacy request needs. Query and export endpoints are rate limited and slow over large date ranges, and dashboards and reports generally cannot be built through the API, so the answer comes as numbers in the thread rather than a new saved report.
Before the release review
The funnel, the cohort, and the annotation.
Yuki Tanaka9:14 AM
@Cedric how did the signup funnel do last week compared with the week before, and who's in the "Trial, no workspace" cohort? Then mark Tuesday's 2.4 release on the charts.
CedricAPP9:15 AM
Signup funnel, last week: 1,840 visits to pricing, 612 started signup (33%), 447 finished (73% of starts). Week before: 1,910, 590 (31%), 402 (68%). The gain is at the last step. "Trial, no workspace" has 128 members today; I can post the full list or the 20 most recently active. Proposed: an annotation on 2 September, "Release 2.4: new signup form", visible on every chart in the project.
Queried
Segmentation, funnel, retention and frequency queries, run in Mixpanel and answered as numbers in the thread.
Explained
Event and property definitions from the project catalog, and the saved cohorts with their members.
Sent
Events with custom properties, profile updates and chart annotations, proposed first and saved on your yes.
Connect Mixpanel with your own key
No setup project, no workflow builder, no field mapping. The flow is the same for every tool Cedric connects to.
- 01
Install Cedric where your team talks
One click. He joins your Slack like any other member, and everyone shares the same Cedric.
- 02
Connect Mixpanel from the dashboard
Open the Integrations page, pick Mixpanel and paste a service account's username and secret from Mixpanel's project settings. You can revoke the connection in one click at any time.
Pick Read-only when you connect if you only want him reading. You can switch it later.
- 03
Ask in plain words
Back in the channel, try it: "how did the signup funnel do last week?" You describe the outcome; Cedric picks the Mixpanel actions the ask needs. There is nothing to configure.
Connect for the whole workspace so the team shares it, or keep the connection personal. Two accounts are fine too; each gets a short name.
- 04
Let it become routine
Schedule the recurring version of the ask, and let Cedric fold Mixpanel into bigger jobs that cross your other tools. Anything that would leave your workspace still comes back as a preview to approve first.
Better in company
Numbers from Mixpanel read best with the revenue in Stripe beside them: ask for the trial-to-paid funnel and the revenue it produced in one reply. A Google Sheets tab can hold the same numbers every Monday without anyone exporting.
A release annotation is only useful if the release is real: pair Mixpanel with GitHub or Linear and Cedric can name the shipped change next to the dip or the lift, and file the issue when a funnel step drops.
Worth knowing
Mixpanel comes from Cedric's catalog of 3,200+ apps. He works from what the Mixpanel connection can read and do, the same list its card shows in your dashboard.
Large queries take time. Mixpanel's query and export endpoints are rate limited and slow over long date ranges, so a year of raw events is paged rather than pulled in one go.
Deletion requests cannot be undone. A data-deletion request removes a person's data for good, so Cedric names who it concerns and asks every time. Dashboards and reports are built in Mixpanel itself.
The Mixpanel connection sets the scope. Cedric sees what it grants. Access is logged, and you can revoke it from the dashboard at any time.
Nothing sends itself. An email, a post, a change to a record: anything with consequences comes back as a preview for a person to approve.
FAQ
Yes. Mixpanel is one of the 3,200+ apps in Cedric's catalog. Connect it once from the dashboard, with a service account's username and secret from Mixpanel's project settings, and ask in plain words. Cedric picks the actions an ask needs from what the connection can read and do, with no fields to map.
Generally no. Dashboards and saved reports are not built through the API, so Cedric answers with the numbers in the thread and can put them in a sheet or a doc. The saved reports your team already has stay where they are.
Yes. He looks up the event and property definitions catalogued for the project, so a question like "what is export_completed" gets the description and properties your team recorded, and he can say which events are not documented at all.
Connect it for the whole workspace and everyone shares it, with one person authorising once. A connection you would rather not share, a personal inbox for instance, can stay personal to you.
Yes, and it starts that way: a key connection is read-only until you turn writes on. Even with writes on, anything that changes or sends waits for an approval.
Every workspace starts with 100,000 free credits (worth $50) on sign-up, no card. Plans start at $19 a month for the whole team, no seats. Each task uses credits in proportion to the work. See pricing.
