The Bigml jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Translate a customer message properly
Today
A message arrives in a language you do not read. Copying it into a translator, writing a reply and translating it back takes several steps and some guesswork.
With Flann
“Translate this and help me reply politely in Portuguese.”
Flann uses Bigml to translate the message and tells you in plain English what the customer wants. Your reply is drafted in their language, with an English version alongside so you know exactly what you are saying.
What you stop doing: Pasting messages between windows to understand a customer is over.
Sorting a backlog of reviews
Today
Old enquiries, reviews and support emails pile up. Reading them all to find the ones that matter is a job for a quiet week that never comes.
With Flann
“Use Bigml to sort last month’s reviews into praise, problems and questions.”
Flann passes the reviews to Bigml for sorting and reads the result before reporting. You get the groups with examples, and complaints are routed to the right person on your team.
What you stop doing: The backlog stops being something you mean to get round to.
