USE CASES // 01 — FOUNDERS & CEO

Run the company
on a Slack thread.

Analyst, ops manager, marketer, finance — collapsed into one coworker that lives in Slack and WhatsApp. The work you keep putting off, done.

01 / WHAT IT DOES

What Openrift does for founders.

Founders carry the work
that doesn't fit on anyone's job description.
We send agents that take it.

You don't need another dashboard. You need someone who can pull the numbers, write the update, build the dashboard if one's missing, then send the follow-up to the investor.

Openrift agents live in your Slack and WhatsApp. They have their own compute environment. They run code, query your real tools — Stripe, HubSpot, Meta, Notion — and ship outputs back where you already work.

Not text. Not suggestions. The PDF. The deployed app. The sent email. The closed loop.

02 / WORKFLOWS

Six workflows we ship for founders.

Before → After
01
Daily · 9am SGT

Daily business pulse

MRR, churn, CAC, ad spend — at 9am, in the same Slack channel, every day.

Before

You ping the analyst on Monday. Wait until Thursday. Get a static snapshot. Forget the question by then.

With Openrift

Stripe revenue, PostHog activation, Meta and Google spend, ad CAC — reconciled overnight and dropped in #pulse before the team logs on. Variance flagged in red. One paragraph of context attached.

02
On demand · ~60 min

Investor update on autopilot

Revenue, burn, pipeline, headcount, key wins — composed into a polished board email or deck on demand.

Before

Last business day of the month becomes a 6-hour scramble — pulling spreadsheets, chasing the head of sales, writing prose at midnight.

With Openrift

You type `/board-pack` in Slack. Agent pulls live revenue and burn, scrapes the CRM for pipeline movement, asks the team for highlight bullets, and hands you a numbers-tight draft inside an hour. You review, tweak, send.

03
Continuous · weekly summary

Outbound that runs itself

ICP definition, list build, enrichment, sequence loading, conversion reporting. Closed loop.

Before

SDR cycles burn weeks on bad lists. Sequences go cold. Nobody knows what converted.

With Openrift

Tell the agent who you want to talk to. Apollo lists pulled, enriched against your CRM for dupes, scrubbed against opt-outs, loaded into Instantly with sequence variants. Reply-rate dashboard piped back into Slack weekly. Conversions written back to HubSpot.

Same-day delivery

Internal tools in minutes

Revenue dashboards, client portals, approval workflows — shipped as deployed web apps.

Before

You sketch it on a napkin. Engineering says "Q3." You build it in Sheets. It breaks.

With Openrift

Describe it in a Slack thread. Agent provisions Supabase, Vercel, auth — writes the React, deploys to a subdomain, drops the URL back. Working app inside the day. Tweaks via more Slack messages.

Real-time · daily digest

Hiring pipeline tracking

Candidate movement across ATS, interview notes, recruiter threads — synthesised, surfaced, nudged.

Before

Three tools, four spreadsheets, a Slack channel that nobody reads. The strong candidate goes dark for two weeks.

With Openrift

Agent watches Greenhouse or Ashby, parses interviewer notes, summarises debriefs in plain English, flags stalled candidates, nudges the hiring manager. The pipeline dashboard updates itself.

06
Per-contract · renewal alerts

Vendor + contract management

PDFs read, line items flagged, renewal reminders set, drift from template captured.

Before

You scan the MSA on a Friday. Miss the auto-renewal clause. Lose S$40k next April.

With Openrift

Agent reads every contract you sign. Pulls line items into a register. Flags clauses that drift from your template language. Sets renewal alerts 60 days out. Negotiation context preserved in a WhatsApp thread you can reopen any time.

// 02 — INVESTOR UPDATE

The board pack
writes itself.

You type a single command in Slack. Agent reconciles live Stripe revenue, Xero burn, and HubSpot pipeline — then drafts the numbers-tight update your investors expect.

Review, tweak, send. The last business day of the month stops being a six-hour scramble.

03 / RECLAIMED

What you stop doing.

Removed from your week
  • Manually pulling Stripe numbers every Monday morning.
  • Writing the same board update template seven months in a row.
  • Hunting for the latest pipeline number in three different tools.
  • Building the same internal dashboard your team has built four times before.
  • Asking the recruiter where Sara is in the loop.
  • Reading every line of every MSA at midnight.
  • Composing investor updates from scratch from a blank page.

Pulse — Revenue is holding the line. Churn ticked down again — the cohort migration we ran last month is working. The CAC bump deserves attention: Meta CPM rose 14% over the week.

Heads-up — Three accounts are showing payment retry failures. Drafted recovery emails — review in #billing.

Next — Asking Sam for sign-off on the Q2 budget shift toward Google Search before the Meta CPM bleed widens.
