Get started with Mantle Flows

Mantle Flows lets you turn all that customer data you've got in Mantle into automated actions. Instead of manually sending emails or updating customer info, set up workflows that handle it all for you. Your flows run in the background, responding instantly to what your customers do.

Think of flows as your business automation toolkit - when something happens (like a customer installs your app), your flow can automatically send a welcome email, tag the customer, update their profile, and notify your team. All without you lifting a finger.

Three ways to get started

Mantle gives you multiple ways to create flows, so you can pick whatever feels right for your situation:

Build from scratch

Start with a blank canvas and build your flow step by step. Pick your trigger, add conditions, and choose actions. Great when you have a specific automation in mind.

Start from a template

Browse our library of pre-built flow templates covering sales, marketing, customer experience, and more. Pick a template, customize the details, and you're automating in minutes. Learn more about templates.

Generate with AI

Describe what you want your flow to do in plain English, and AI will build it for you. Just click Create with AI on the Flows page, describe your automation, and review the result. Learn more about AI-powered flows.
