Windows input assistant
Capture a list once, keep your destination window focused, and send each row in order with a global hotkey.
Why it exists
FlowChain is built for ordered input work: moving spreadsheet rows into forms, sending canned replies, registering product data, testing fields, or stepping through commands that should be reviewed before they are sent.
Workflow
Paste a block of text or table data into FlowChain and keep it organized as ordered rows.
Lock onto the destination window, then use a global hotkey to send the next item.
Sent rows are marked clearly, so an interruption does not force you to start over.
Demo
This short recording shows FlowChain and a target app side by side. The list stays in FlowChain while each selected row is sent to the destination one step at a time.
