01 / The journey

Useful before a sales call.

You get the completed private draft immediately. Human review is for public publication, not a gate between you and the first useful answer.

  1. 01

    Create your private workspace

    A secure account keeps your report private and gives you a place to return while it is being built.

  2. 02

    Find your business

    After sign-in, choose the correct business and primary location so the analysis starts with the right identity.

  3. 03

    Explore your draft

    The complete authenticated draft appears as soon as it is generated. No agency review is required before you can use it.

  4. 04

    Make it more accurate

    Correct visible assumptions and add business facts. Every meaningful change creates a traceable new revision.

02 / What you receive

Not a teaser. The complete working draft.

The report separates observed evidence, modeled conclusions, and missing business facts. That distinction is what makes it safe to act on—and easy to improve.

  • A plain-language read on where growth is constrained
  • Local demand, competitor, visibility, and reputation evidence
  • A practical channel strategy grounded in available data
  • Forecast ranges that show their assumptions
  • Clear requests for the information that would improve accuracy

03 / Privacy boundary

Private draft. Deliberate publication.

Authenticated draft

Ready when generation finishes

Visible only to authorized signed-in users. You can explore it, correct assumptions, and create revisions without making it public.

Approved public report

Shareable by canonical URL

A specifically approved revision can be promoted to a stable public report. New private revisions never silently overwrite it.

Optional Google connections—Google Ads, Google Business Profile, Google Analytics and Google Search Console—let your Brief report your own accounts' performance. You choose what to connect, and you can disconnect at any time. Our Privacy Policy explains what FlashCrafter accesses, stores and shares, including where a shared view link or the optional website-planning feature sends that data.

04 / Questions

Before you begin.

FlashCrafter creates your private workspace before business search, then keeps the selected business and every report revision tied to that account.

Is the Growth Brief really free?

Yes. One initial Growth Brief is free for each authenticated account and resolved business. Reopening or retrying that same request does not create duplicate reports.

Why do I need an account before finding my business?

Authentication protects the report generator from automated abuse, keeps your draft private, and gives you a durable workspace for corrections and future revisions.

Will my draft be public?

No. A generated draft is private to authorized signed-in users. Only a separately approved revision can become an anonymous, publicly shareable canonical report.

Do I have to connect my Google accounts?

No. A Growth Brief is produced from public evidence without any connection. If you choose to connect Google Ads, Google Business Profile, Google Analytics, or Google Search Console, FlashCrafter reads only the accounts, properties, and locations you select, so that your Brief can show your own advertising, listing, traffic, and search performance. You can disconnect at any time, which revokes FlashCrafter's access at Google. Our Privacy Policy describes exactly what is accessed, stored, and shared.

What if FlashCrafter does not have all of my business data?

The brief keeps partial information and assumptions visible. You can add details such as average ticket value, capacity, Google Ads context, or Google Business Profile information to create a more accurate revision.
