Automations
Set it up once, let it run every week.
An automation is a task that runs by itself, either on a schedule ("every Sunday at 7pm") or when something happens ("when a new booking comes in"). Many AI apps now offer scheduled tasks, and tools like Zapier or Make connect your apps so routine work happens without you.
How it works
- 01Decide the trigger: a time, like every Monday, or an event, like a new email or form.
- 02Describe what should happen, in plain words or with a template.
- 03It runs on its own, and you check the results now and then.
The slow cooker
You put the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, set the timer, and dinner is ready when you walk in. You did the work once; the machine does the rest. Automations are the slow cooker of your digital life. Set up a weekly plan, a Monday content list or a Friday summary once, and it just keeps arriving.
Where you'll use it
Sunday reset
A weekly message with the coming week's plan, ideas and reminders.
Monday content plan
Fresh post ideas for your niche, delivered every Monday morning.
Recall and deal alerts
A weekly check for product recalls or price drops on things you care about.
Your nap-time experiment
Design your first automation. If your AI app offers scheduled tasks, set it up for real.
Help me design one weekly automation that saves me time as a busy mom. Ask me 3 quick questions about my week first. Then suggest one automation with: - the trigger (when it runs) - exactly what it should do - the prompt it should use each time - what I need to set it up (which app or feature) Keep it simple enough to set up in 10 minutes.
