In short

How do I hand off Typito caption requests to my editor quickly?

WebRun checks Typito for new videos queued for captions, blocks editing time on Google Calendar for the assigned editor, and drafts a WhatsApp handoff with the video link and deadline for you to review and send. Caption requests get scheduled and routed the moment they arrive, not whenever someone checks the queue.

  • Caption requests get scheduled the moment they arrive
  • Editors get a ready-made handoff instead of a queue to check
  • Deadlines are blocked on the calendar automatically

Questions, answered

Does it caption the video itself?

No. WebRun only schedules time and hands off the request. Writing and applying the actual captions is still done by the editor in Typito.

Will the WhatsApp message send on its own?

No, it's always left as a draft for you to review and send, nothing goes out automatically.

What if the editor is already busy at the deadline?

The calendar block will show the conflict, so you can see it and adjust before the handoff goes out.

Put this on autopilot.
