Possible in the next update you could pass the flight departure time (EOBT) from FR24 into Simbrief? This would make the tool 110% complete for me (as it is it's about 97%)
Thanks again for putting this out!!

FR24 to Simbrief
FR24 to SimBrief is a lightweight desktop utility that streamlines the creation of realistic flight plans by transferring real-world flight data from FlightRadar24 directly into SimBrief. Simply paste a live or historical FR24 flight link — the app automatically fetches airline, aircraft type, registration, route and departure time, and opens SimBrief with all fields pre-filled. Features an Apple-inspired interface with Dark and Light Mode, an interactive great-circle route map, and a SimBrief Airframe Library. No Python, no dependencies, no manual input required.
