Automated Businessmap Weekly Flow Scorecard

Every Friday, WebRun opens Businessmap, pulls this week's cycle time, work in progress count, and any cards stuck blocked, logs the full flow scorecard to Airtable for trend tracking, and emails the team a weekly flow report so process bottlenecks get visibility without someone building the report by hand.

In short

How do I get a weekly flow metrics report from Businessmap?

WebRun checks Businessmap every Friday for this week's cycle time, work in progress count, and any cards stuck blocked, logs the full flow scorecard to Airtable for trend tracking, and emails the team a weekly flow report, so process bottlenecks get regular visibility without anyone having to pull the analytics and build the report by hand.

  • Flow bottlenecks get weekly visibility instead of going unnoticed
  • Cycle time and work in progress trends build up automatically
  • The team gets the report without building it by hand

Questions, answered

Does WebRun unblock cards or change the board?

No. It only reads flow metrics and blocked status already in Businessmap. Unblocking or moving a card is left entirely to your team.

Who receives the weekly flow report?

Only your own team's address list connected through Gmail. It's an internal report and isn't sent to clients.

Can I see trends over time?

Yes. Each week's metrics are appended to the same Airtable tracker, so cycle time and work in progress trends build up automatically.

Put this on autopilot.
