How it works
You sign into an app through Runner, just like you would on any website. Runner gets permission to read and act on your behalf. You stay in control of what it can do. Most people start by connecting their email and calendar. Takes about 30 seconds per app.Your data stays yours. Runner never sees your password. We don’t use your data to train AI. We don’t sell it. Everything is encrypted. Full security details below.

Keep work and personal separate
Runner lets you create multiple workspaces, each with its own set of connected apps. A common setup:
This way Runner never mixes your work emails with personal ones. Switch between workspaces anytime.
You stay in control
Runner has three permission levels for each connected app:
You can mix and match. Let Runner read your email freely but require approval before sending anything. That’s a solid default.
Your data is safe
We take this seriously. Here’s how it works.We never see your password
When you connect an app, you’re signing in directly with that app’s own login screen. Runner never sees or stores your password.We don’t use your data to train AI
Your emails, calendar events, documents, and messages are processed only to do what you asked. Nothing else. We don’t train models on your data.We don’t sell your data
Runner doesn’t sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or anyone else.Encryption
All your data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Same level of encryption banks use.You control what Runner can access
You choose which apps to connect, and you can set permission levels for each one. Disconnect any app at any time and Runner stops accessing it immediately.Your data stays separate
Your data is completely isolated from other Runner users. Nobody else can see your stuff.Compliance and certifications
We’re built for teams that care about this stuff.
If your team needs to review Runner’s security posture before connecting, reach out to support@runner.now. We’ll walk through the details with your compliance team.
Reconnect or disconnect
If a connection stops working, click the app in Connected Apps and sign in again. This refreshes your access without losing any settings. To remove an app, find it in Connected Apps and click Disconnect. Runner stops using it immediately.What’s next?
