Threadline

Less chasing. More moving.

Work that knows
where to go next.

Every request has a next step. Threadline connects the checks, the exceptions and the person who decides, so nothing waits in an inbox for someone to notice.

Make the rules. Try the branches.

One invoice.
A smarter route.

Change the amount or remove the document. The flow follows your rules and stops when a person is needed.

Above $500Ask a person
HandoffReady for finance

Ready when you are.

See which path it takes.

Run the flow to check this invoice against your rules.

    A workflow should read like a conversation

    Got the request.
    Checked the details.
    Your call.

    Some work can carry on by itself. Some needs a missing document. Some needs a person to say yes.

    Build that difference into the flow, and everyone can see why a request moved, or exactly why it stopped.

    The handoff is part of the work

    Nothing lost
    between steps.

    1. 01
      Requests with a shape

      Amount, attachment and approval rule stay together, so the next person starts with the context instead of a search.

    2. 02
      Exceptions with a home

      Missing information pauses the flow and asks for what it needs. It never quietly becomes a completed task.

    3. 03
      Decisions with a record

      A person approves the exception before the handoff. Change the input and that approval is cleared, on purpose.

    Built around the way you work

    Bring your everyday bottleneck.
