Analytics & Payments

Stripe + Armbrain

Know how a client's revenue is trending without logging into their Stripe. Armbrain keeps one summary per closed month and nothing more detailed.

Totals only

One Stripe connection feeds the one mind you pick.

What Armbrain takes from Stripe

Armbrain writes one summary for each closed calendar month.

  • Gross revenue from successful charges, and how many payments there were.
  • Refunds and net revenue.
  • Paid invoices, count, and amount.
  • Change from the month before.
Left alone

It never stores single charges, invoices, customers, email addresses or card details. Stripe rows are turned into totals as they are read, then thrown away.
