Automated Brigit Overdraft Risk Alerts
Every morning, WebRun opens Brigit, checks the connected account balance against upcoming scheduled payments, estimates how many days until the balance would go negative, posts the update to Telegram, and sends an urgent Twilio text only when the risk is within 2 days.
How do I get warned before Brigit flags an overdraft risk?
WebRun checks your Brigit-connected balance every morning, compares it against upcoming scheduled payments, and estimates how many days until the balance would go negative. It posts the update to Telegram every run, and sends an urgent Twilio text only when the balance is projected to go negative within 2 days, so a real overdraft risk gets your attention fast.
- Overdraft risk gets caught days in advance, not after it happens

Questions, answered
How does it estimate overdraft risk?
It compares your current balance against upcoming scheduled payments Brigit already tracks, and estimates how many days until the balance would go negative at that pace.
Will WebRun request a cash advance or move money for me?
No. WebRun only reads your balance and risk signal and reports on them. It never requests an advance, transfers funds, or moves money. Any advance request stays something you trigger yourself in Brigit.
Why does a high risk also send a text?
Because a Telegram post can sit unread. When the balance is projected to go negative within 2 days, WebRun also sends an SMS through Twilio so it is harder to miss.
