Founder workflow
Runner is like an AI Chief of Staff that looks at email, calendar, WhatsApp, Messages, News, Todos, and more and delivers you exactly what you need to focus on.
Prep meetings, draft updates, and keep follow-up moving across email, calendar, docs, and team tools.
Runner is free for the first 30 days.
Everything that happens in this workflow, from trigger to outcome.
Trigger
The day is fragmented and context is scattered across meetings, notes, docs, and messages.
Apps connected
Sample input
“Summarize critical inbox threads, top calendar meetings, and blocked tasks across Slack and Notion with suggested next actions.”
Sample output
“A ranked founder brief with blockers, follow-ups, and recommended actions grounded in the actual stack.”
What actually got done
Outcome
Less context rebuilding, more finished founder work.
