Repetitive Archive.org work Flann takes off your plate
These are the jobs that come back every day or every week. Message Flann instead, and keep the decisions for yourself.
Reading the long contract for you
Today
Supplier agreements and leases run to pages of dense clauses. You skim them late at night, or sign without properly reading the renewal terms.
With Flann
“What does the new linen supplier contract in Archive.org say about notice and price rises?”
Every page of the contract in Archive.org gets read, not just the first few. You get the notice period, the renewal date, any automatic price rise and anything unusual, each with the clause it comes from.
What you stop doing: Skimming clauses late at night before you sign is over.
Logging the day’s takings
Today
At closing you are meant to add takings, card totals and petty cash to a spreadsheet in Archive.org. Tired, you skip it, and the gaps show up at month end.
With Flann
“Here’s the till slip. Add today’s totals to the takings sheet in Archive.org.”
Cash, card and refund totals are read off the slip and matched to the columns already in your takings sheet in Archive.org.
What you stop doing: Typing up the till slip after a long shift is off your list.
