Automation that asks before it acts
FlowRunner is a visual orchestration platform for AI agents. We help teams automate the routine and bring people in for the judgment calls.
The company
FlowRunner is the product of Midnight Coders, Inc., a Texas-based software company. The platform is bootstrapped, built by a small team that has spent the last two decades building backend infrastructure used by millions of developers.
Midnight Flow is FlowRunner's partner consultancy, founded by the same team and operated by Midnight Coders, Inc. Midnight Flow handles complex workflow implementation services for organizations that need expert help getting started. When you see a Midnight Flow case study cited in FlowRunner content, it's a first-party engagement we're transparently disclosing, not a third-party validation.
The founder
Mark Piller is FlowRunner's founder and CEO. He previously founded Backendless, a mobile/web backend platform used by tens of thousands of developers. His work on FlowRunner is informed by years of building infrastructure that has to work reliably at scale, with humans in the loop for the decisions that actually matter.
The product belief
AI agents that act without judgment are a liability. AI agents that escalate everything are useless. The interesting middle ground is agents that know the difference. FlowRunner is built around that principle: workflows run autonomously when the path is clear, and route to a human when there's ambiguity, risk, or a decision worth a person's attention.
We call it Orchestration as a Service — a layer above agent builders that coordinates, governs, and manages multi-agent environments with explicit human oversight points.
Editorial process
The default byline on FlowRunner content is Mark Piller, Founder of FlowRunner. As the team grows, additional named authors will publish here under their own bylines. We do not invent author identities or attribute content to people who did not produce or substantively review it.
A growing share of our content is produced with AI assistance, then reviewed by a human editor before publishing. AI assistance does not change the byline — the named author remains accountable for what gets published. We disclose AI assistance openly because it's how the work actually gets done.
The full policy is published at /editorial-policy.
