Opening a branch, launching a store, onboarding a client: describe the project once as a template. For each new run, pick one date. FlowPilot computes every deadline and keeps everyone involved informed.
Venue, speakers, catering, invitations, the day itself.
How it works
One template. One date per run. Every other date is computed.
01
Define the template once
List the activities and place each one relative to the key date: sign the lease 120 days before opening day.

For stakeholders
Everyone stays informed. Nobody needs an account.
Architects, contractors, suppliers, colleagues: they get what they need, when they need it, without learning a new tool.
Short email notices
When someone is assigned, when their dates change, and before their activities start. The email only says something changed: the details stay on FlowPilot.
A personal, read-only page
What do I have to do, and when? What changed? Readable in five seconds on a phone.
Their own calendar, kept in sync
One subscription link for Outlook, Google or Apple Calendar. Their own activities are marked ★.
FlowPilot never asks anyone to sign in or enter a password from a link. Stakeholder pages contain no forms and ask for no personal data.

The schedule has changed, from Smile Dental Group
FlowPilot
Hello Tom, Eric Imhauser from Smile Dental Group has updated a schedule you are part of.

Where it comes from
FlowPilot started as an internal tool, built and used for years at a large bank to plan branch openings. It is now rebuilt as a service any team can use.
What FlowPilot does
Plans repeated projects from a template, computes every date, notifies the people involved and syncs their calendars.
What it deliberately leaves out
No task boards, no chat, no accounts for stakeholders. It plans and it informs, and does both well.

Plan your next opening with FlowPilot.
Join the waiting list and we'll email you as soon as your organization can sign up. Then start from the sample Branch Opening template or from scratch.
