Automations are AI-powered helpers that run on your lists, mailboxes, or across your whole project. You enable the ones you want, configure them, and they work in the background.

Available automations

quality check (lists) — checks every newsletter for broken links, typos, grammar issues, and compliance before it goes out. enabled automatically on new lists
triage (mailboxes) — classifies incoming email by category and priority, tags it, writes a one-line summary
OTP capture (mailboxes) — finds one-time verification codes in incoming email and extracts them
extractor (mailboxes) — pulls structured data from emails: dates, amounts, order numbers, action items
digest (lists or project) — emails you a periodic engagement summary: open rates, subscriber growth, top posts, and how this period compares to the last one
domain health monitor (project) — checks your sender domains on a schedule and emails you if DKIM or domain verification breaks

Enabling automations

lists: open your list and go to the Automations tab
mailboxes: open your mailbox and go to the Automations tab
project-wide (digest, domain health): go to the Automations page in the main navigation

New lists get the quality check enabled automatically. Everything else is opt-in.

Schedules

Digest and domain health run on a schedule. When you enable one, it gets a sensible default (weekly Monday 9am for digest, daily 9am for domain health). On the configure page you can change:

frequency — daily, weekdays, weekly, or a custom cron expression
time of day and timezone

Use the Run now button on the configure page to test an automation without waiting for the schedule.

Configuring

Each automation has a configure page where you can:

rename it
set the schedule (for scheduled automations)
add custom instructions — e.g. “we use British English, don’t flag it” for the quality check, or “focus on click rates” for the digest

The configure page also shows run history: how many times the automation ran, how long runs took, and the most recent output.

Where results show up

quality check — issues appear on the post page and in your preview email before sending
triage and extraction — results attach to the email in your mailbox
digest — emailed to you, and the latest one is shown on the automation’s configure page
domain health — emails you only when something is broken

API

Automations are available over the API: list, create, configure, and delete via /v1/automations. Agents can discover them through the automations skill at /.well-known/agent-skills/.
