The good news: every number Metorik shows you is already sitting in your own WooCommerce database, so nobody is gatekeeping your data. An agent can pull orders, customers and products through the Woo REST API into a local store and give you revenue charts, cohort and repeat-purchase views, product breakdowns and CSV exports in a weekend. The gap is everything that is not a chart: abandoned cart tracking needs a script on your storefront plus a capture endpoint, email automations need a sending domain and deliverability you do not have, and segment-driven campaigns need a rules engine that is a project of its own. Large stores also punish naive syncs, Metorik has spent years making that part boring. Build the dashboard, keep paying for the email side if that is why you signed up.

# Metorik indie build

## Goal

Build the smallest trustworthy replacement for the core Metorik workflow for one developer or a tiny team.

## Scope

Syncs your WooCommerce orders, customers and products into a local database on a schedule and serves a dashboard with revenue, product, cohort and repeat-purchase reports plus CSV export.

## Quick start

1. Install the documented dependencies.
2. Copy `.env.example` to `.env`.
3. Run the development command chosen during implementation.
4. Complete the acceptance checks in `BUILD_PLAN.md`.

## Honest limits

This build deliberately does not replace:
- Abandoned cart tracking and cart recovery emails, which need storefront instrumentation plus real email sending
- Automated email flows tied to customer segments, with templates, throttling and unsubscribe handling
- Battle-tested incremental sync for stores with hundreds of thousands of orders
- Subscriptions, refunds and tax edge case handling that Metorik has already hit and fixed
- Mobile-friendly polish, live order feed and the everything-in-one-place feel

If those capabilities are essential, use Metorik instead of pretending the gap is solved.

why people still pay

Because a store owner wants the abandoned cart email that actually sends, not a chart they built themselves. Reports are the easy half and they are the half you can replicate; the automation half means a warmed sending domain, unsubscribe compliance, segment rules and someone to blame when the flow misfires during a sale. Metorik also absorbs the pain of WooCommerce version drift, plugin conflicts and gigantic order tables, which is unglamorous work that quietly eats your weekends if you own it.
