How the Event Factory Works

Real-world examples of how businesses plug their services into the Event Factory API and receive machine-inferred, contextual content creation from combined webhook signals.

Key Insight: Individual webhook events are often low-signal and insufficient on their own. Combining multiple events over time creates contextual meaning, enabling automated, scalable, and repeatable content generation.

E-Commerce Product Launch

Retail
Online retail platforms emit events from inventory systems, checkout flows, and customer interactions.

Individual Webhook Signals

  • product.created

    New SKU added to catalog

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: Just another product in the database. No indication of importance, demand, or launch strategy.

  • inventory.updated

    Stock levels changed

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A number changed. Could be a restock, correction, or automated update. No story on its own.

  • sale.completed

    Purchase transaction

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: One transaction among thousands. No context about velocity, customer profile, or significance.

Contextual Intelligence (Combined Interpretation)

When a new product is added with high initial stock, followed by rapid sales velocity within the first hours, the Event Factory recognizes a product launch pattern. It infers urgency ('Only 23 left in first batch!'), social proof ('147 customers purchased in 6 hours'), and momentum narratives that no single signal contains.

SaaS User Onboarding & Feature Adoption

Software
SaaS platforms track user behavior through application events, feature flags, and milestone trackers.

Individual Webhook Signals

  • user.signed_up

    New account created

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A form was submitted. No indication of user intent, source, or likelihood to engage.

  • feature.activated

    User enabled premium feature

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A toggle was switched. Could be accidental, experimental, or intentional. Context is missing.

  • milestone.reached

    Usage threshold crossed

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A metric passed a number. No narrative about journey, progression, or achievement.

Contextual Intelligence (Combined Interpretation)

By combining signup source, time-to-first-feature-activation, and milestone velocity, the Event Factory identifies power users, confused users, and success patterns. A user who signs up from a blog post, activates analytics within 10 minutes, and hits 100 queries in one day becomes a 'rapid adopter' story—perfect for case studies and onboarding optimization.

Automated Content Outputs

Content Creator Performance Analytics

Media & Entertainment
Platforms for creators emit events from video uploads, engagement metrics, and audience growth milestones.

Individual Webhook Signals

  • video.published

    New content uploaded

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A file was uploaded. No indication of performance, quality, or audience response.

  • engagement.threshold

    View/like/comment milestones hit

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A counter incremented. Could be organic growth, viral spike, or paid promotion. Context unclear.

  • subscriber.milestone

    Follower count achievements

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: Vanity metric changed. No story about why, who, or what it means for the creator.

Contextual Intelligence (Combined Interpretation)

The Event Factory detects patterns like 'tutorial series momentum' (3 videos + 10K views + 500 new subscribers in 48 hours) and transforms raw metrics into narratives. It identifies viral spikes, sustained growth periods, and audience engagement trends that single events cannot reveal.

Event Management & Ticketing

Hospitality & Events
Event platforms emit signals from registration systems, ticket sales, and post-event feedback collection.

Individual Webhook Signals

  • event.created

    New event scheduled

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: An event exists in the database. No indication of demand, promotion strategy, or significance.

  • ticket.sold

    Registration completed

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: One ticket sold. Could be an early bird, last-minute buyer, or bulk purchase. No velocity context.

  • event.completed

    Event ended with attendance data

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: Event is over. Attendance numbers alone don't reveal satisfaction, highlights, or outcomes.

Contextual Intelligence (Combined Interpretation)

The Event Factory identifies patterns like 'early momentum' (100 tickets in first hour → scarcity messaging) and 'post-event success' (high attendance + positive feedback → thank-you campaigns and future promotion). Combined signals create stories that individual events cannot.

Automated Content Outputs

Text-Based

  • Early bird urgency posts
  • Countdown content
  • Last-chance alerts
  • Thank-you messages
  • Post-event highlights

Long-Form

  • Event recap blog posts

Fitness & Wellness Tracking

Health & Wellness
Fitness apps emit events from workout logging, goal tracking, and progress milestones across devices and user actions.

Individual Webhook Signals

  • workout.completed

    Exercise session logged

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A workout happened. No context about difficulty, consistency, or achievement.

  • goal.achieved

    Personal record or target met

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A number was surpassed. Could be first time or hundredth time. No narrative of effort or journey.

  • streak.updated

    Consistency milestone

    Why this signal alone is insufficient: A counter incremented. Could be meaningful commitment or lucky coincidence. Context missing.

Contextual Intelligence (Combined Interpretation)

When 7 consecutive workout days combine with a new personal record and a goal achievement, the Event Factory infers dedication and momentum. It creates motivational narratives ('You crushed your weekly target AND hit a new PR!') that isolated events cannot generate.

Variations & Endless Content Generation

The same event signals can produce content with different:

  • Tones: Professional, playful, urgent, inspirational, educational
  • Audiences: Customers, internal teams, public marketing, investors
  • Formats: Post, recap, report, highlight, tutorial, announcement
  • Time windows: Real-time, daily, weekly, milestone-based, annual
  • Perspectives: Growth story, success story, insight report, comparison

This enables endless content generation without repetition—the same data can tell hundreds of different stories.

You Control How Content is Generated

The Event Factory is automated, but not rigid. You have full control over how your signals are interpreted and what content is created.

Custom Instructions & Interpretation
Define how the Event Factory understands your signals

You can provide custom instructions that control:

  • How signals are combined (e.g., "3 sales in 1 hour = viral momentum")
  • What patterns trigger content generation (e.g., "Wait for 100 sign-ups before creating recap")
  • Tone and voice preferences (e.g., "Always use casual, friendly language")
  • Brand guidelines and terminology (e.g., "Call users 'creators', not 'customers'")
Content Orders
Define exactly what you want generated and when

Create "content orders" that specify:

  • Signal combinations: Which events must occur together
  • Interpretation rules: How to understand those signals
  • Output formats: Blog post, PDF, social post, email, etc.
  • Frequency: Real-time, daily digest, weekly recap, milestone-based

Prompt Engineering Your Event Stream

Think of the Event Factory as a programmable content engine. You can:

  • 1.
    Define signal requirements: Specify which events are required before content is generated (e.g., "Don't generate until we have signup + activation + first milestone")
  • 2.
    Control creative direction: Set tone, length, format, and style for each content type (e.g., "Keep social posts under 280 characters, use emojis, always include a CTA")
  • 3.
    Set thresholds and triggers: Define when content should be generated (e.g., "Create urgency post when inventory drops below 20%")
  • 4.
    Iterate and refine: Adjust your instructions based on output quality, just like prompt engineering an LLM

The Event Factory is automated but flexible—you maintain full creative and strategic control while eliminating manual content creation.
