FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does Improvado connect to Circle?

Improvado connects through scheduled exports: your team exports Circle member, post, and payment data for the communities and spaces you choose, and the files reach Improvado automatically by email, SFTP or S3. Historical member activity, posts, and payment records load from the exports you provide.

What Circle data does Improvado pull?

Improvado extracts Communities, Members (ID, email, name, join date, status, engagement score), Spaces (discussion forums, events, courses), Posts and Comments, Activity logs (views, likes, replies), and Payments (subscription tier, payment status, churn date). It also pulls custom segmentation tags and member behaviors. Data refreshes on your export schedule.

How often does Circle data refresh?

Circle data refreshes on your export schedule. Each time a scheduled Circle export runs, the files reach Improvado by email, SFTP or S3 and load automatically, so new members, posts, and payment events are as current as your latest export.

Can the AI agent write data back to Circle?

No. Improvado receives Circle data as scheduled file exports, so the agent does not change anything inside Circle. It can report on member tags and segmentation fields, flag members for status changes (e.g., mark inactive, promote to VIP tier) for your team to make in Circle, send digests to Slack or email, and set alerts. Every query is logged in Improvado's audit trail with the agent's prompt, member IDs involved, and timestamp. Role-based access controls let you restrict data access to specific agents.

Is Circle data secure with Improvado?

Yes. Improvado is SOC 2 Type II certified, HIPAA-compliant, and GDPR-ready. SFTP and S3 delivery credentials for Circle exports are stored in encrypted credential vaults and never logged. All data in transit uses TLS 1.3, and data at rest is AES-256 encrypted. You control data retention policies, and Improvado supports IP whitelisting and SSO for enterprise security requirements.

How does Circle connect with other platforms in Improvado?

Improvado maps Circle member data to its Common Data Model, unifying community engagement with email (ActiveCampaign, Mailchimp), CRM (HubSpot, Salesforce), and ad platforms (Google, Meta). You can correlate Circle member churn with email open rates, compare community engagement by paid acquisition source, or identify which discussion topics drive the highest subscription conversions across your entire marketing stack.
