GBrain vs Runner

A GBrain review from GBrain's own pages: what it does, GBrain pricing as printed, and how it compares with Runner. Runner gives growth a whole team: it finds the leads, sends each one your introduction, and drafts the posts and ads.

In one line

GBrain

A workspace for the AI tools a team already uses: one shared memory, skills that take on a job, and accounts connected once, with a level you set for what each AI may do.

Runner

An AI team built around your business. Channel leads draft the work; leadership keeps it tied to the goal you set.

Side by side

How do I start?
GBrain

Sign in with Google or an email link, then use it from the AI each person already uses: Claude, ChatGPT, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or a terminal.

Runner

Give it your website or product catalogue link, and Runner builds your Growth DNA: what you sell and who it's for. Your code or your point-of-sale sales report adds more. Connect a model, and Runner proposes the team.

What does it make?
GBrain

Skills that each take on a job. Its Customer Comms pack is “Five skills that write to your customers for you”, and its Launches pack drafts a launch post for what your team shipped.

Runner

Posts, emails, pictures, video clips, presenter videos and ads. A presenter speaks your script to camera, marked as AI. The team picks the model for each picture or video clip, and on channels that take both, which one to make. It tries each option first, then goes by what earlier pieces earned on that channel.

How do my AI tools connect?
GBrain

Connect an account once for the whole team: “GBrain holds the sign-in and hands an AI the result of a call, never the password.” You set what each AI may do on each connector.

Runner

Connect an MCP client that signs in with OAuth. It signs in as one of your teammates, and every call is checked against that person's permissions at the moment it runs, so a change of role applies to the next call.

How do posts go out?
GBrain

Its Launches pack drafts the posts: “You post each one, or turn on auto-post once the drafts earn your trust.”

Runner

Inside daily limits that start at zero, or a weekly allowance you save 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.

What does an approval cover?
GBrain

Its Customer Comms pack says “Every email waits in your Drafts until a person sends the email or approves auto-send.”

Runner

Each 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.

Who each is for

GBrain
A team working in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or a terminal that wants each AI to remember what the others learned, with the same skills and the same connected accounts.
Runner
A business that wants a whole team on growth: a scout finds leads, channel leads draft the outreach, and leadership scores the work against the goal you set, on the model you pick.

GBrain gives Claude, ChatGPT and your terminal one memory, kept as plain files you can export, and its Team plan brings everyone into one workspace at no extra cost. Runner adds a team that finds the leads, sends each one your introduction and keeps score against the number you set.

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.
  • Ads on your own accountsYour own ad accounts on Google, Meta, LinkedIn, Reddit, TikTok and AppLovin, once each network has approved Runner. Each change shows its before and after and what it does to spend, and applies only once it's approved or when it fits inside a budget you approved.
  • 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.

Questions about GBrain and Runner

Should I use GBrain or Runner?

Use both if you like. GBrain gives the AI tools your team already uses one memory, its skills and the same connected accounts. Runner gives growth a whole team: it finds the leads, sends each one your introduction and drafts the posts and ads, working toward a goal you set.

Can I use Runner in Claude or ChatGPT?

Yes. Connect Runner to Claude or ChatGPT, then ask about your business in a chat. You sign in with your own Runner account, choose the products the assistant can see, and can disconnect it whenever you like.

How do I add Runner if I already use GBrain?

Create your account and pick a plan. Runner then proposes a team from your code or your POS sales report, and GBrain can keep running beside it.

Does Runner work for a shop or a café?

Yes. Connect Square, Lightspeed Retail, Toss Place or Toast, or drop in the sales report your POS already makes. Shopify POS works through its orders CSV, and Clover follows once Clover approves Runner. Runner keeps totals and trends, never customer names, emails or card numbers.

Which AI model does Runner run on?

The one you pick for your chief executive and each lead. It runs on the AI credits your plan includes, or on your own key from Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI or Ollama, where your vendor agreement and your rate limits apply.

Will anything go out without me?

Not until you switch the team on. Then it works inside the limits you set, and anything outside them comes to you first, with the reason. Every email also checks the contact's recorded consent and your suppression list.

How do I get Runner?

Create your account and pick a plan. You pay upfront when you start; the plans are on the pricing page.

Your business. Your goal. Your growth team.
