Storms hitting cities with many of our customers
A proactive status message for cities where a storm is coming.
What it does
Every morning: the forecast in each city where you have many customers (your table), and for those with a storm coming a proactive status message by xMap AI for the support team.
In one sentence: Every day at 06:00, take your table, get the 2-day weather forecast, sort them by wind_max_kmh and keep the top 5, write a summary of each with xMap AI, then send message to a channel in Slack and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Customers forgive outages they were warned about. Support sends a calm message before the storm.
Who it is for
Software & tech companies. SaaS sales teams, IT service providers and hardware resellers finding the businesses their product fits, and serving them well. Every use case for software & tech
Best use cases

What each run gives you

The time it saves
Every day at 06:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 20 minutes each time; it runs about 30 times a month, so it saves about 10 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
