Repetitive Route4me 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.
Turning a voice note into tasks
Today
Ideas and jobs come to you while driving or walking the floor. By the time you are at a screen to put them into Route4me, some have gone.
With Flann
“Put everything from this voice note into Route4me as tasks for this week.”
Flann transcribes the voice note, splits it into separate jobs, gives each a clear title and suggests a due date and an owner from your team in Route4me. You see the list as one card.
What you stop doing: Remembering jobs until you get to a screen is no longer required.
Answering “where are we with my job?”
Today
Clients ask for updates at awkward moments. To answer, you open Route4me, find their project and piece together what has happened since you last spoke.
With Flann
“Where are we on the Morgan bathroom refit in Route4me? Draft an update for the client.”
In Route4me, Flann reads the project’s finished, current and waiting tasks and writes a plain-English update the client will understand, without internal notes or jargon. You see the draft in the chat.
What you stop doing: Piecing together a client update from the board yourself is over.
