What Runner adds

Leads, each introducedRunner finds companies that fit and the people there, and sends each one your introduction with a line on why their company fits. An owner or admin approves the batch in one press, and every send checks your suppression list again. Named people are found only at US companies.
An approval covers one versionEach Instagram draft is saved as a version, and its checks run on every save and again before it's scheduled. An approval covers that one version: change a word and it needs approving again, by you or by an agent you've allowed to schedule. Scheduled posts go out on your own Instagram account once Meta approves Runner.
Limits first, then on its ownDaily limits start at zero, or you save a weekly allowance for one kind of post or email. Once a lead's last 10 drafts all go out as written, you can let it run on its own inside the limits you set, and an edit or a rejection puts it back to asking. Switching the team on or raising a limit asks you to confirm it's you.
Budgets proposed from resultsYou set the total. The team proposes each channel's share from results, and you approve it. Then it paces spend inside that budget and asks before the total goes up.
Their own phone numberGive the team members that need one a phone number you already hold on your Twilio account.
Marked as AI-madeYou see which model makes each picture or clip. Every picture a model draws carries a machine-readable mark naming that model. Once Meta approves Runner, an Instagram post made with one asks for Instagram's AI info label.
Your rules, keptWrite a Never show rule, and the team keeps it out of every brief and checks each picture it draws before keeping it. A post can say what sold from your own sales record: item names and counts, never money and never a customer.
A record of the workEvery picture and clip the team chooses records why, and the team's scheduled jobs leave a line on its board saying what they did, quiet runs included.
Your model, paid your wayPick the model your chief executive and each lead run on. It runs on the AI credits your plan includes, or on your own key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI or Ollama.
