Amplitude export: 52 raw names → 18 clusters

Sample file (not a client export) — the bundled Taxon Amplitude demo CSV. 52 distinct event-name strings; after normalizing casing/punctuation/synonyms they fall into ~18 clusters. Taxon also reads Mixpanel, Heap, PostHog, GA4, Segment, and warehouse exports the same way. Below: one Accept, one Keep separate, then pack paste / next dump.

THE MESS

Same actions under different spellings. A few examples from the file:

  • Add to Cart · AddToCart · add_to_cart · add to cart
  • Button Clicked · button clicked · btn_clicked · Button Clicked
  • cta_clicked · Call To Action Clicked · call_to_action_clicked

01

Cluster → Accept

Four “add to cart” spellings are one action. Accept a single canonical name for the cluster.

Add to Cart / AddToCart / add_to_cart / add to cart → Cart Item Added (example canonical)

Taxon accepting one canonical name for Add to Cart variants
Accept · near-dup cart names → one label

02

Cluster → Keep separate

Not every near-match should merge. Button / CTA / btn variants can be different product intents — keep them apart when the meaning differs.

03

Pack

Preview and edit the pack in-tab, then export markdown + taxon-map.json (and optional CSV map) for the next dump.

04

Next dump

Open the following month’s file — new · on pack · drifted — with sticky counts that jump to the first new or first drifted name.
