Where Flann saves you time in Scrapingant

Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Scrapingant is connected.

Looking up a record mid-conversation

Today

A customer on the phone asks when their membership renews or what they ordered last time. Finding the record in Scrapingant means a laptop, a login and a search screen.

With Flann

“When does Priya Shah’s membership renew? Check Scrapingant.”

Within the chat, Flann searches Scrapingant for the record and replies with the renewal date, plan and last visit. If two records match, it asks which one you mean. Looking up changes nothing, so it happens straight away.

What you stop doing: Opening a laptop to answer a simple customer question is unnecessary now.

Keeping an eye on competitors

Today

Checking what nearby competitors charge means visiting several websites and writing it all down. So it happens once a year, if that.

With Flann

“Use Scrapingant to check what the gyms near us charge for a monthly membership.”

Using Scrapingant, Flann gathers the published membership prices from those gyms’ websites and lays them out next to yours in one short table. It notes the date it checked, since prices change. Nothing on your side changes, and nothing is sent anywhere.

What you stop doing: Visiting competitor websites one by one with a notepad is a thing of the past.
