Scheduled Tasks

Scheduled tasks let you run AI agent sessions automatically on a recurring schedule. Instead of manually starting a conversation each time, define a task once and let it run on its own — daily, weekly, hourly, or on any custom schedule.

Business Use Cases

Daily Reports

Generate daily sales summaries, inventory snapshots, or KPI dashboards every morning before your team starts work.

Recurring Data Analysis

Analyze weekly marketing metrics, customer churn trends, or financial data on a set schedule and deliver results to your workspace.

Automated Monitoring

Check competitor pricing, monitor website uptime, track social media mentions, or scan for regulatory changes at regular intervals.

Periodic Content Creation

Draft weekly newsletters, generate social media post ideas, or prepare recurring email campaign content automatically.

Data Collection & ETL

Scrape data from websites, aggregate information from multiple sources, or transform and clean datasets on a schedule.

Compliance & Auditing

Run periodic compliance checks, generate audit reports, or validate that systems meet required standards.

Managing Tasks

Enable / Disable

Toggle a task on or off without deleting it. Disabled tasks retain their configuration but won’t run until re-enabled.

Run Now

Trigger a task immediately without waiting for the next scheduled time. Useful for testing or when you need results right away.

View Run History

Each task keeps a history of past runs. Click into any run to see the full conversation — the agent’s responses, tool calls, and any files it generated. This gives you full transparency into what the agent did during each execution.

Edit & Delete

Update a task’s message, schedule, or timezone at any time. Delete tasks you no longer need.
