In short

How do I post per-sequence VFX progress to Slack automatically?

WebRun opens Vani Software every morning, rolls each shot's stage up into a per-sequence completion percentage, and posts a clean breakdown to your Slack channel with each sequence's percent complete and its movement since yesterday. The whole studio reads progress at a glance, so nobody has to open a report to know how sequences are tracking.

  • The whole studio sees sequence progress without opening a report
  • Sequences that jumped or stalled stand out from the day-over-day change
  • Percentages roll up live from shot stages in Vani Software

Questions, answered

How is the completion percentage calculated?

WebRun weights each shot by its stage toward final delivery, then averages across the sequence. You can tune the stage weights so the percentage reflects how your studio measures progress.

Does it post to the client's channel too?

No, unless you ask it to. By default the breakdown goes only to your internal studio channel. You decide which Slack channels receive it, so nothing is shared externally on its own.

Can it show which sequences moved the most?

Yes. Each sequence shows its change since yesterday, so a sequence that jumped or stalled stands out immediately and the team can see where the day's momentum went.

Put this on autopilot.
