Connect Webflow to WhatsApp: orders and collection items by chat
Flann turns Webflow into something you can message. Ask on WhatsApp, by text or voice note, and Flann does the work in Webflow for you. A website should say what is true today: this week’s hours, this season’s menu, the service you just added. With Webflow connected, a message to Flann prepares the change.
59 actions in Webflow. 27 only look things up, and 32 create, update, send or delete. You connect with your API key.
What you can ask Flann to do in Webflow
You do not need the exact wording. These are the kinds of messages Flann turns into Webflow actions.
“Show me my forms in Webflow.”
“Show me my pages in Webflow.”
“Show me my orders in Webflow.”
“Update the page in Webflow.”
“Refund the order in Webflow.”
“Create an asset folder in Webflow.”

Where Flann saves you time in Webflow
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once Webflow is connected.
Keeping the menu design current
Today
When a dish changes, the printed menu and the screen behind the till are both out of date. Editing the design in Webflow usually waits until someone asks for the soup that is no longer there.
With Flann
“Remove the soup of the day from the lunch menu in Webflow and add the halloumi wrap.”
The menu design in Webflow is edited with the spacing kept even and a short description written for the wrap in the style of the rest. A preview of the whole menu comes back so you can read it as a customer would.
What you stop doing: Waiting for a customer to point out an old menu is over.
Adding captions to short videos
Today
Plenty of people scroll with the sound off, so your clips need captions. Adding them line by line in Webflow is slow, and the timing always drifts.
With Flann
“Add captions to the new class video in Webflow, in our usual style.”
Using Webflow, Flann transcribes the clip, times the captions to the speech and styles them the way your earlier videos look. A preview comes back to WhatsApp so you can check names and spellings.
What you stop doing: Typing and timing captions line by line is off your plate.
