Connect Seam to WhatsApp with an AI agent
Flann is an AI agent your business talks to on WhatsApp. Connect Seam once, then ask Flann to look things up in it or get work done in it, by text or voice note. Look-ups in Seam run straight away, because reading a status or a log harms nothing.
10 actions in Seam. 6 only look things up, and 4 create, update, send or delete. You connect with your API key.
What you can ask Flann to do in Seam
Send any of these on WhatsApp, in your own words. Flann finds the right Seam action and fills in the details from the conversation.
“Show me my connected accounts in Seam.”
“Show me my spaces in Seam.”
“Show me my devices in Seam.”
“Add access methods in Seam.”
“Create an access grant in Seam.”

Repetitive Seam 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.
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 Seam: 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.
Who still has access
Today
Staff come and go, and old logins linger. Checking who can still get into which system is a job nobody wants.
With Flann
“Does Ana still have an account in Seam? She left last month.”
Flann looks up Ana in Seam and tells you exactly what access she still has. Want it removed?
What you stop doing: Closing the door behind people who left no longer depends on memory.
