Automations

Hand off your most repetitive work — weekly SEO reports, daily competitor checks, monthly content calendars — and have them done automatically. You define the task once, set a schedule, and Hubi takes it from there.

How Automations Work

Each automation has three core components:

• Execution prompt — The instruction that tells Hubi what to do each run. Think of it as a standing order: "Every Monday, compile a report on our top five competitors' new content."
• Schedule — When and how often it runs: daily, weekly, monthly, or a custom cadence.
• Approval flow — Choose whether Hubi executes automatically or waits for your sign-off first.

Creating an Automation

Method 1 — Chat with Hubi (fastest): Just describe what you want. "Create an automation that sends me a weekly competitor analysis every Monday morning." Hubi walks you through naming, confirming the prompt, and setting the schedule.

Method 2 — Manual: Drawer > Capabilities > Automations > Create > name it > write the execution prompt > set the schedule > choose approval mode > Save.

Tips for execution prompts: Be specific. State your desired output format, reference data sources or integrations, and include any constraints (length, structure, tone).

Schedule Options

• Daily — Every day at a specified time
• Weekly — Chosen day of the week
• Monthly — Specific date each month
• Custom — Cron-style cadence for advanced scheduling

Time is in 12-hour format, tied to your workspace timezone (changeable in Settings > Workspace Settings > Timezone).

Managing Automations

From Drawer > Capabilities > Automations:

• Edit — Update the name, prompt, schedule, or approval flow. Changes take effect on the next run.
• Run History — See every past execution with timestamp, status (completed, pending approval, failed), and output summary.
• Ask Hubi — Open a conversation with automation context for help improving or troubleshooting it.
• Pause/Resume — Temporarily stop scheduled runs without deleting anything.
• Delete — Permanently removes the automation and its run history.

Every automation run also appears in your Calendar.
