Connect OSV to WhatsApp with an AI agent
Flann turns OSV into something you can message. Ask on WhatsApp, by text or voice note, and Flann does the work in OSV for you. Devices, logins, servers and the small apps your team built all leave a trail in OSV. Flann can read that trail for you. Ask by text or voice note and the answer comes in sentences, not error codes.
5 actions in OSV. All of them only look things up, so nothing in OSV is ever changed. It needs no login.
What you can ask Flann to do in OSV
You do not need the exact wording. These are the kinds of messages Flann turns into OSV actions.
“Look up vulnerabilities in OSV.”
“Look up the vulnerability in OSV.”
“Show me my import findings in OSV.”

Where Flann saves you time in OSV
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once OSV is connected.
Passing a fault to the right person
Today
When something breaks, you forward a screenshot to your developer with a vague description. They then ask the questions you could not answer.
With Flann
“Send Dan the details of this error so he can look at it.”
Flann gathers what Dan will need from OSV: when the error started, how often it happens and which part of the system is affected. It drafts a clear message to him with those facts.
What you stop doing: Your role as messenger between customers and developer comes to an end.
Fridge and sensor check-ins
Today
Fridges, sensors and connected equipment report into OSV, but nobody looks unless something has already spoiled.
With Flann
“Are the fridges and freezers all at the right temperature?”
Flann reads the latest readings from OSV and tells you whether anything sits outside its normal range. A unit that has been drifting is named, with how long it has been drifting.
What you stop doing: Walking round checking displays just to feel sure is no longer needed.
