What Flowdash does

Flowdash makes it easy to build semi-automated workflows with no code. We recognize that many business processes today simply can't be fully automated and require human intuition. But there's no reason they need to be fully manual either. With Flowdash, teams can build custom tools to manage their internal processes, leveraging automation where it makes sense, and weaving in human intuition when needed.

Quickly build internal tools for ops workflows

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We make a no-code platform that lets ops teams build semi-automated workflows. Many internal processes require human decisions but still waste time when fully manual. Flowdash lets users build custom tools combining automation and manual steps to match their exact needs.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We're based in San Francisco, CA, and we would stay here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco has the best access to talent and customers for a B2B SaaS startup like ours building tools for product and operations teams.
