THE GLUE

The story is in pieces. The Glue keeps it whole.

One living model across your digital and physical customer journeys. People, steps and results, in order, each with its source. Your team works from the same record. Ask in plain words in the Glue Console and get the answer with its evidence.

Bring one decision. We'll find where its data lives today.

[01]WHERE THE STORY BREAKS
  1. 01 · SALES
    The CRM has her name. It doesn't have the nine days before it.

    So the first call starts from zero.

  2. 02 · OPERATIONS
    Four exports, one spreadsheet, every Monday.

    Out of date by the time it's shared.

  3. 03 · AI / TRANSFORMATION
    We pointed the assistant at the CRM. It answered from one system.

    Without the visits, the bookings or the emails.

You don't need more data. You need the data you have, glued.

[02]IN PLAIN ENGLISH

A warehouse stores facts. A connector moves them. The Glue keeps what they mean: whose they are, what happened in what order, and where each one came from.

We call it the Glue. It holds people, the steps they took, the systems those steps happened in and the results that followed. What was observed stays apart from what was estimated. Web signals come from Stick. App installs, store visits, drive-through orders and car park visits come from your source systems through an API, warehouse or scoped integration. Trusted identifiers determine which steps can be linked. The next decision builds on the same model.

[03]ONE PERSON, IN ORDER

Ten steps. Six systems. One record. From the first ad click to the payment her CRM recorded.

Each value on the record names the step and the system it came from.

Sarah is a demo of a sales journey. App installs, store visits, drive-through orders and car park visits can join through your source systems, API or warehouse as part of the build. Links require trusted identifiers; an offline visit alone does not identify a person.

[04] · WHAT THE GLUE HOLDS

People, steps and results. Each with its time, its system and its source.

  • 01

    People, matched on evidence

    Records join on details you already trust: emails, accounts, customer ids. No CRM link is made silently. Each one carries its state: confirmed, candidate, conflict or unmatched.

    The CRM lifecycle, in order

    Pipeline stages, call results, bookings, reschedules, cancellations, deals, payments, refunds and pauses, as your CRM records them. They arrive through your warehouse and land on the person's timeline.

    Company, email domain, location and device facts are added on their own. Each one says where it came from and how it was found.

SUPPORTED ROUTES

Stick captures web signals. Booking and email systems can contribute records. CRM history joins through your warehouse or API; lead delivery is mapped in the build. Postgres, signed webhooks and the REST API provide further routes.

AS PART OF THE BUILD

App installs, store visits, drive-through orders, car park visits, support records and offline sales join from your existing systems through the API, warehouse or a scoped integration. Source availability, consent and match keys determine what can be linked.

Integrations we run today. Vendor names belong to their owners and imply no endorsement.

[05]YOURS TO KEEP

Your evidence stays yours. Cloud storage, your Postgres or a self-hosted data service. We agree the setup and coverage in the build.

DataGlue Cloud
Managed storage is the default. Account access, workspace settings and orchestration stay in DataGlue Cloud whichever data option you choose.
Your Postgres
Connect your own Postgres for supported sessions, events and identity links. Replay files remain in DataGlue Cloud in this mode. We map the reads, writes and warehouse streams covered by your setup.
Self-hosted data
Run a dedicated data service for supported journey tables and replay files. After registration, health checks and a verified data move, we can enable it for replay capture, playback and exports. Other application data and workflows keep their existing stores.
Portable evidence
Export sessions, events and identity links on request. Counts are checked first, then the files leave with a manifest and checksums behind short-lived signed links.

If you leave, the evidence in your warehouse stays there.

[06]WHAT CHANGES

Stop rebuilding the story. Start the next decision from the same record.

  1. 01

    Stop rebuilding the answer

    The Monday spreadsheet becomes a record that stays current, with the source on every step.

  2. 02

    One record for every team

    Sales, marketing, operations and finance read the same steps, in the same order.

  3. 03

    History that outlasts a tool

    The model sits on top of your systems. When a tool changes, its history stays, and the new one joins through the build.

START WITH ONE DECISION

Bring the decision your systems disagree on. We'll glue only what it needs.

Talk it through with our team. In the Outcome Build, a dedicated team glues the sources behind that decision into the Glue, then extends the same model to the next one.

DECISIONS TEAMS BRING
  • Which customers to prioritise this quarter.
  • Where the handover from marketing to sales breaks.
  • Which result counts as a won customer.
  • Which number the leadership meeting uses.

You don't need the answer, only the question.
