The thinking tool that comes before the build

Most business problems are a missing flowchart.

Describe what's going wrong, what needs documenting, or what you're about to build. Flowchart First interviews you, maps how it really works, finds where it breaks, and draws the fixed process with an objective rule on every step. Share it with your team, train new hires on it, or hand it to whoever is building.

Step 1 of 2 · What are we mapping?

What keeps going wrong? Describe the symptom, who notices it, and how it plays out today.

Messy is fine. The AI will ask what it needs.

Every arrow gets a rule

"If it's a good fit" isn't a rule. "Budget ≥ $10k and starts within 60 days" is. A new hire should make the same call you would.

Before and after

See how the process actually runs today, where it breaks, and the fixed version side by side.

Rule, AI, or human

Each step is tagged so you know what plain automation can handle, where AI helps, and what needs a person.

The why, not just the what

It picks the right lens for the problem (swimlanes, Theory of Constraints, RACI, Lean) and explains its choices.
