The Typecast jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Transcribe and summarise a call

With Flann
“Transcribe this recording and give me the decisions and who owes what.”
Flann sends the recording to Typecast for transcription and reads the result itself. You get the decisions, the actions and who agreed to each, in a few lines.
What you stop doing: Replaying recordings to remember what was agreed is a thing of the past.
Images for this week’s post
Today
You need a picture for a promotion. Making one means opening another app, trying prompt after prompt and downloading files.
With Flann
“Make three image options with Typecast for our weekend brunch post.”
Flann writes a clear brief from what you said and what it knows about your business, then asks Typecast for the images. The options arrive in the chat so you can pick one or ask for changes.
What you stop doing: No more wrestling with a design tool for a single picture.
