In short

How do I catch FlexClip video requests before they stall?

WebRun compares your open Airtable video requests against actual project activity in FlexClip every morning, and flags anything untouched for 3 or more days. It then emails the assigned editor a short list of their stalled requests, so nothing sits idle waiting for someone to notice during a status meeting.

  • Stalled video requests get caught within a day
  • Editors get a same-day nudge instead of a status meeting surprise
  • Every request's age is tracked automatically in Airtable

Questions, answered

Does it email clients about delays?

No. WebRun only emails your internal editors about their own stalled requests. It never contacts a client or posts about a delay publicly.

How does it decide a request is stalled?

It compares each request's age in Airtable to its last edit or export activity in FlexClip, and only flags ones untouched for 3 or more days.

What if an editor is already working on it today?

Any project with activity in FlexClip in the last 3 days is skipped, so active work never gets flagged as stalled.
