Automated Stack Overflow Activity Reports
Every Monday, WebRun signs into your Stack Overflow account, reviews the past week of questions, answers and comments along with views, tags and reputation earned, posts a short scorecard to Telegram, and drafts a Gmail digest for the wider team to review before it goes out.
How do I track my team's Stack Overflow activity each week?
WebRun scores your Stack Overflow presence every Monday. It reviews the past week of answers, questions and comments on your account with their views, tags and reputation earned, posts a scorecard to Telegram with every comment still awaiting a reply, and drafts a Gmail digest for the team.
- Comments waiting on a reply are surfaced weekly instead of being missed
- You can see which answers earned views and which tags to write for next
- Reputation and answer counts build into a visible weekly trend
Built for developer advocates · devrel teams · engineering managers · open source maintainers

WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it post answers or comments on Stack Overflow for me?
No. WebRun only reads your account activity. It never posts an answer, a question, a comment or a vote, so nothing appears under your name on Stack Overflow that you did not write yourself.
Does it email the team without my approval?
No. The Gmail digest is left as an unsent draft for a human to review and send. Only the internal Telegram scorecard posts on its own, so nothing reaches an inbox until someone has read it.
How does it find comments I still owe a reply to?
It reads the comments left on your posts in the past week and checks whether you have responded to each one, then lists the outstanding ones oldest first with a link, so an unanswered comment does not sit for weeks.
