In short

How do I know quickly if Supercast subscriber churn is spiking?

WebRun checks Supercast every morning for yesterday's new subscribers and cancellations, saves the report to a dated Google Drive folder, and texts you if cancellations run well above your recent average. Podcasters catch a churn problem the next morning instead of finding out at the end of the month.

  • Churn spikes get flagged the morning after they happen
  • Subscriber activity is archived automatically every day
  • No need to check Supercast daily to catch a bad trend

Questions, answered

Does it try to win back canceling subscribers?

No. WebRun only reports on the numbers. Any win-back outreach or offer is still something you decide and send yourself.

What counts as a churn spike?

A day's cancellations landing well above your show's recent average, so the text only fires when something is genuinely unusual.

Where can I see the underlying numbers?

Every day's report is saved to its own dated folder in Google Drive, so you can review the detail behind any alert.
