AI Assistant: workflows and automations

Ask the AI Assistant to set up workflows that run on their own, such as welcome messages, first sign-in courses and absence alerts.

Workflows live under Agents. They're the things that should happen without anyone remembering to do them: a welcome message after a hire, a course on someone's first sign in, an email when absence starts adding up. You can ask the AI Assistant to build, check and switch them off.

A workflow can react to someone being hired, a work anniversary, a birthday, a first sign in, an employee detail changing, a course being completed, leave being requested, or an absence threshold being reached. It can then wait, send a chat message, send an email, assign a course, or assign a survey.

Things you can ask

  • "When someone's hired, wait a day, welcome message, then the onboarding course"

  • "Assign the safety course on first sign in"

  • "Email location managers when someone on their team hits our absence threshold"

  • "Wish people happy birthday automatically"

  • "Why didn't the birthday one run yesterday?"

  • "Show me what's active. Disable the old anniversary one"

Good to know

  • A new workflow goes live as soon as it's made rather than starting paused, so be sure before you approve it.

  • Workflows are disabled rather than deleted.

  • Testing a workflow isn't a rehearsal: it sends the real messages to real people.
