Know how many days of Exotel credit you have left
Every morning, WebRun opens Exotel, reads the current credit balance, compares it with the call and SMS usage of the last seven days to work out how many days of credit are left, opens a Trello card when the runway drops below your threshold, and drafts a recharge request to finance for approval.

How do I know when my telephony credit is about to run out?
Every morning WebRun opens Exotel, reads the current credit balance, and compares it with the last seven days of call and SMS usage to work out how many days of credit remain. It opens a Trello card when the runway runs short and drafts a recharge request in Gmail, so calls never stop for an empty account.
- A low balance is caught days ahead instead of when calls stop connecting
- The alert carries a runway in days, not just a number
- Finance gets a drafted recharge request with the usage evidence attached

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it recharge the account or spend money?
No. WebRun never makes a payment. It writes the recharge request as a Gmail draft with the numbers attached, and a person approves and pays.
Does it change anything in Exotel?
No. It reads the balance, the call logs and the SMS usage. Numbers, flows and settings are left exactly as they are.
What if usage spikes suddenly?
The runway shortens the same morning, because the burn rate is recalculated from the last seven days on every run rather than set once.
