Use cases

What teams actually do with the Mailchimp integration

Post-launch campaign orchestration

Product launches → BeforeQuery drafts announcement copy, personalizes per Mailchimp segment, schedules across channels, and monitors performance vs. baseline. Marketing lead approves each step; execution stays hands-off.

Churn-signal re-engagement

Product signals a churn risk (usage drop, key user inactive) → BeforeQuery triggers a re-engagement flow in Mailchimp tuned to the specific product they use. Personalized, timely, better response than generic saves.

Campaign performance Q&A

Marketer asks "how'd the Q3 webinar campaign perform?" → BeforeQuery pulls Mailchimp data, computes conversion + CTR + attributed pipeline, answers in one message with drill-down links.

Answer questions grounded in Mailchimp

Employees and customers ask Mailchimp-related questions in Slack, Teams, or the widget — BeforeQuery answers with the exact Mailchimp record shown alongside the response. No context switching, no "log into Marketing Automation to check" round-trips.

Mailchimp — Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about connecting BeforeQuery to Mailchimp.

Send actions default to require approval. Small transactional messages (already-approved sequences) can be autopilot; net-new campaigns require approver sign-off with the draft attached.
Standard OAuth 2.0 where Mailchimp supports it, otherwise API-key or bearer-token auth. Credentials are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM) per workspace, never shared across customers, and rotated on request. The connection is scoped to the least-privilege set of scopes each playbook needs — you approve the scope list on install.
No. Your Mailchimp data feeds only your workspace's own agents and answers. Nothing is used to train a shared model, and nothing crosses workspace boundaries. Bring-your-own-model is available on Enterprise if you want to pin inference to your own OpenAI / Anthropic / self-hosted deployment.
Yes. Every Mailchimp integration is scoped at install time — you pick which resources, users, or record types are visible. You can further restrict per-playbook: a single playbook only touches the specific Mailchimp objects it needs. Scope changes take effect on the next sync.
Every write is logged with the acting user, the playbook that fired it, the exact operation, the target entity IDs, and the timestamp — all in the immutable audit log. Writes are rehearsable in simulation mode against a copy of live data before they touch Mailchimp for real.
