In short

How do I track BetterHelp client messages that still need a reply?

WebRun checks your BetterHelp inbox every morning, logs any client message or session request still waiting for a reply to Airtable with its wait time, and emails you a daily digest sorted by longest wait. Nothing sits unanswered overnight without you knowing, and every reply is still written by you.

  • No client message sits unanswered overnight without the practitioner knowing
  • Wait times are visible at a glance, sorted longest first
  • Every reply is still written personally, with the tracking done automatically

Questions, answered

Will it reply to a client message on its own?

No. WebRun only reads and logs messages. Every reply to a client is written and sent by the practitioner directly in BetterHelp.

Does it read the content of client messages?

It only needs to know that a message exists and how long it's been waiting to build the digest. It doesn't need to quote or store message content to do that.

How does it decide what counts as waiting too long?

It flags anything still unanswered after 12 hours, though you can adjust that window to match your own response time goals.
