Runner
AI Chief of Staff automating founder workflows like meeting prep and follow-through.
Overview
What is Runner?
Runner is an AI Chief of Staff specifically designed for founders and operators to automate their daily workflows. It connects disparate tools like Gmail, Calendar, Slack, Notion, and HubSpot, as well as local files, to gather context and execute tasks. It can prepare meeting briefings, draft memos from various data sources, and manage email follow-throughs. The platform operates on a 'review-before-send' model, ensuring that the AI prepares the work while the human remains in final control of all communications and actions.
