Chatwork on WhatsApp: manage messages, tasks and rooms with an AI agent
Flann turns Chatwork into something you can message. Ask on WhatsApp, by text or voice note, and Flann does the work in Chatwork for you. Customers write in whatever language they think in. With Chatwork connected, Flann reads each message, works out what the person needs and drafts an answer in their language, while giving you a summary in your own language of what they actually asked. You check it. Then it goes.
30 actions in Chatwork. 15 only look things up, and 15 create, update, send or delete. You connect with your API key.

Where Flann saves you time in Chatwork
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Chatwork is connected.
Passing a case to the right person
Today
Handing a conversation to a colleague means assigning it in Chatwork and then explaining the whole story again in a separate message.
With Flann
“Give the wholesale enquiry from this morning to Dana with a summary”
Finding the enquiry in Chatwork, Flann writes Dana a short summary of what the customer wants and what has been said so far, then prepares the assignment. Dana gets the context without the thread.
What you stop doing: Re-telling a customer's story every time you delegate is over.
Warning customers about a delay
Today
When a delivery slips or you have to close early, you need to find everyone affected and tell each of them individually through Chatwork.
With Flann
“The van is late today. Let affected customers know and apologise”
Working out who is affected from today's orders and bookings, Flann drafts a short apology for each through Chatwork and shows you the recipient list first. Nobody outside that group is contacted.
What you stop doing: Finding everyone affected, and telling them individually, is no longer on you.
