Repetitive Braintrust 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.
Research before a decision
Today
Before choosing a supplier or a new product line, you read around for an evening and still feel unsure.
With Flann
“Research three local packaging suppliers and compare delivery times and minimum orders.”
Flann asks Braintrust to gather the information, then checks the sources it returns. You get a short comparison with links you can open yourself.
What you stop doing: An evening of open tabs and scribbled notes is no longer the price of a decision.
Handing a task to an agent
Today
Some jobs have several stages: pull the data, process it, write it up. Running them by hand means checking in at every step.
With Flann
“Have Braintrust prepare the weekly stock report and tell me when it’s ready.”
Flann starts the task in Braintrust, follows its progress and checks the output when it finishes. A short summary lands in WhatsApp, with anything that looks off flagged.
What you stop doing: Babysitting a tool meant to save you effort is no longer necessary.
