Connect Bolt Iot to WhatsApp with an AI agent
Flann is an AI agent your business talks to on WhatsApp. Connect Bolt Iot once, then ask Flann to look things up in it or get work done in it, by text or voice note. Most owners hear about technical problems when a customer does. That order is backwards. With Bolt Iot connected, Flann can tell you what is wrong and who on your team is best placed to fix it, ideally before the complaints start.
6 actions in Bolt Iot. 3 only look things up, and 3 create, update, send or delete. You connect with your API key.
Repetitive Bolt Iot 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.
Who still has access
Today
Staff come and go, and old logins linger. Checking who can still get into which system is a job nobody wants.
With Flann
“Does Ana still have an account in Bolt Iot? She left last month.”
Flann looks up Ana in Bolt Iot and tells you exactly what access she still has. Want it removed?
What you stop doing: Closing the door behind people who left no longer depends on memory.
What changed this week
Today
Your developer ships changes regularly. You find out what changed when a customer mentions that a button has moved.
With Flann
“What did the team change on the app this week?”
Flann reads the recent changes recorded in Bolt Iot and turns them into a short list in everyday language, pointing out anything customers will notice. This is read-only.
What you stop doing: You are no longer the last to know what changed in your own product.
