Question 1

What is Flo and what can it do?

Accepted Answer

Flo is Flowshot's built-in AI assistant. You can chat with it directly, or hand it unstructured text (a long email thread, meeting notes, a Slack conversation) and ask it to turn that into tasks. Flo also does the automatic triage on everything Flowshot captures from your connected tools — ranking incoming items by priority and labeling them so your Flow list stays organized without manual sorting. Flo only reads what it needs to do the job (task titles, statuses, the text you give it) — it isn't used to train any external model.

Question 2

How do I invite teammates to my workspace?

Accepted Answer

From Settings → Team, the workspace owner can generate an invite link. Anyone who opens it and creates (or signs into) a Flowshot account joins that team automatically. A few things worth knowing: - Invite links expire after 7 days. - Each invite link is single-use — generate a new one for each person, or share the join page and let people request access. - Creating a team requires a Pro or Enterprise plan — Starter accounts can join a team someone else created, but can't start their own until they upgrade.

Question 3

How does the Calendar view work?

Accepted Answer

Calendar shows every task that has a due date, laid out by day. Overdue tasks and everything due this week are called out separately so you don't need to scan the whole month to see what needs attention now. Tasks without a due date live in Flow but won't appear on the Calendar until you set one.

Question 4

How do I reset my password?

Accepted Answer

Go to Forgot password and enter the email on your account. If an account exists for that address, we'll send a reset link — following it lets you set a new password. If you're signed in already and just want to change your password, do that from Settings → Account instead. The reset link expires after 1 hour for security — request a new one if it lapses.

Question 5

What is Flowshot?

Accepted Answer

Flowshot is an AI workspace that turns scattered work into a single, flowing task list. Instead of checking Slack, email, docs, tickets, your calendar, and code review requests separately, Flowshot automatically captures tasks from each of those and drops them into one prioritized queue called Flow. An AI assistant, Flo, triages what comes in — ranking it, labeling it, and routing it to the right person — so you're working from one list instead of five inboxes. The workspace has four main views: - Flow — your single prioritized task list - Calendar — every task with a due date, laid out by da…

Question 6

What plans does Flowshot offer?

Accepted Answer

Flowshot has three plans: - Starter — €0, forever. 30 AI credits per week, 1 workspace (personal only), 7-day activity history, community support. This is what every new account starts on. - Pro — €29.99 per member, per month, or €89.99 per member, per year (about €7.50/mo — a 75% saving over paying monthly). 500 AI credits per week, unlimited workspaces, full activity history, and priority support. - Enterprise — custom pricing, billed annually. Unlimited AI credits, SSO & SCIM, audit logs, and a dedicated success manager. Contact sales. Only the yearly Pro plan includes a 3-day free trial —…

Question 7

I deleted a task by mistake — can I get it back?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Deleted tasks go to Trash, not straight to permanent deletion. From Trash you can: - Restore an individual task back to Flow - Permanently delete a single task - Empty the entire Trash at once Nothing in Trash is recoverable once you permanently delete it or empty the Trash — double-check before using either of those.

Question 8

What can team members see and do?

Accepted Answer

Team workspaces have two roles: - Owner — the person who created the team. Manages billing, invites, and can remove members. - Member — can see and work the team's shared task list, add tasks, and use Flo within the workspace's shared AI credit pool. If you need a different permission structure (e.g. multiple admins), let us know from a support ticket — this is an area we're actively expanding.

Question 9

What are AI credits and what uses them?

Accepted Answer

Every message you send to Flo, and every time you ask it to extract tasks from free text, uses AI credits — the exact cost scales with what Flo has to do: - A base reply costs 1 credit, plus roughly another credit for every extra ~600 characters Flo generates for a longer reply. - Extracting tasks from a block of text costs 1 credit for the first task, plus 0.5 credit per additional task pulled out of the same batch. - A single action is capped at 5 credits maximum, however long or complex it is. Everything else in Flowshot is unlimited and doesn't touch your credit balance: - Creating, editi…

Question 10

How do I change the email or name on my account?

Accepted Answer

From Settings → Account, you can update your display name at any time. If you need to change the email address on your account, open a ticket from your current account (or the new email, if you no longer have access to the old one) so we can verify it's really you before making the change.

Question 11

How do I upgrade, downgrade, or cancel my plan?

Accepted Answer

Go to Settings → Billing. Changing plans takes effect immediately: - Upgrading unlocks the new plan's features and AI credit allotment right away. - Downgrading takes effect immediately too — you'll drop to the lower plan's limits (for example, Pro → Starter drops you to 1 workspace and a 7-day activity history window). - Cancelling stops future billing; you keep access through the end of the period you already paid for. If you're in the Pro yearly trial, cancelling before day 3 means you're never charged. Billing is handled by our payment provider, Polar — you'll see their checkout when you…

Question 12

How do I connect Slack, email, or other tools?

Accepted Answer

Head to Settings → Integrations in your workspace. Task capture is organized into six categories you can turn on or off: - Team chat (e.g. Slack) - Email - Docs - Calendar - Tickets - Code (code review requests) Turn on the categories that match where your work happens, and Flowshot starts pulling tasks from them automatically — no per-tool setup beyond that toggle. If a source you use isn't listed yet, open a ticket and let us know — we prioritize new integrations based on requests like these.

Question 13

I've run out of AI credits — what now?

Accepted Answer

Nothing else in Flowshot stops working. You can keep creating and managing tasks manually, and every connected integration keeps capturing tasks automatically — the only thing that pauses is chatting with Flo or asking it to extract tasks from text. Credits reset automatically at your plan's renewal (weekly on Starter and Pro). If you need more before then, buy a one-time credit pack — 200 AI credits for €5.99 — from Settings → Billing, or upgrade to a plan with a larger weekly allotment. Admins and the account owner always have unlimited credits, regardless of plan.

Question 14

Can I be part of more than one team?

Accepted Answer

Team membership in Flowshot is per-workspace. If you need to work across multiple teams, ask each team's owner to invite the email address you want to use for that workspace — you can then switch between the personal Flow and each team you belong to from the sidebar.

Question 15

How do custom categories work?

Accepted Answer

Categories are your own labels for organizing tasks beyond what Flo assigns automatically — think "Client work," "Internal," or "Urgent fixes." Create them from the Categories view, give each one a name and color, and apply them to any task. Categories are unlimited on every plan, including Starter.

Question 16

Is my data used to train AI models?

Accepted Answer

No. When Flo processes a request, it only sees what's needed to answer it — task titles, statuses, and the text you explicitly give it. That data isn't used to train any external AI model.

Question 17

Keyboard shortcuts

Accepted Answer

Flowshot is built to be fast without touching the mouse: Shortcut Action --- --- ⌘K / Ctrl+K Open the command palette N Start a new task from Flow Enter Send a message to Flo Esc Close the open panel The command palette (⌘K) is the fastest way to jump between Flow, Calendar, Categories, and Settings, or to search for a specific task.

Question 18

Do unused AI credits roll over?

Accepted Answer

Within a billing period, unused AI credits carry over — they don't reset until your plan actually renews (weekly for Starter and Pro's weekly allotment, annually for Enterprise's terms). If you need more credits before your next renewal, you can also buy a one-time top-up pack — 200 AI credits for €5.99 — from Settings → Billing, which adds credits on top of your current balance without changing your plan.

Question 19

Can I use Flowshot on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the whole workspace is responsive and works in any mobile browser. On smaller screens, the sidebar is replaced by a bottom tab bar so you can switch between Flow, Calendar, Categories, and Settings with one thumb. There's no separate native app right now; add the site to your home screen for quick access in the meantime.

Question 20

I was charged but my payment didn't go through — what happened?

Accepted Answer

This usually means the charge succeeded on our end but the confirmation didn't reach your browser (a network hiccup during redirect, for example). Your plan and credits should already be updated — check Settings → Billing first. If your plan still shows the old tier a few minutes after paying, open a ticket with your account email and, if you have it, the payment confirmation from Polar. We can look up the order and apply it manually. Duplicate charges are automatically prevented on our end — you won't be billed twice for the same order, even if you tried paying more than once.

Question 21

Is there a limit on how much task history I can see?

Accepted Answer

Completed tasks stay in your data forever — the limit is only on how far back you can see them without upgrading. Starter shows the last 7 days of completed-task history; Pro and Enterprise show your full history with no cutoff. Upgrading immediately unlocks the older history — nothing needs to be re-imported.

Question 22

Can I export my data?

Accepted Answer

A self-serve export isn't available in the product yet — it's on our roadmap. In the meantime, open a ticket with what you need (e.g. all tasks as CSV) and our team can pull it for you.

Question 23

How do I delete my account?

Accepted Answer

Open a ticket from the account you want to close and let us know. We'll confirm it's you and permanently delete your account and associated data. This can't be undone — make sure you've exported anything you need first (see Can I export my data?).
