Flowdash with Nick Gervasi

When businesses share a common need such as payroll, commercial offerings can compete for market share with software solutions that easily adapt to a variety of businesses. Not all tasks can be easily commoditized or standardized. Take content moderation as an example. Every site that accepts user generated content is likely to have unique and nuanced processes that match their internal definitions of allowable content and procedures for what to do with non-allowable content.

Many organizations create custom software solutions for their unique tasks. When they’re central to the core mission, that’s the right choice. When they’re not, such projects are often a distraction for an engineering team that is already stretched too thin. That’s where solutions like Flowdash come in. Flowdash is a low code / no code offering that enables businesses to rapidly develop custom solutions for tasks such as content moderation and others. In this episode, I interview Nick Gervasi, co-founder and CTO at Flowdash.
