Once a task exists, you can forget about it. Everything from waking up to reporting back is your assistant’s job.

It wakes up by itself

You don’t need to be online, in the Console, or even awake. When a scheduled task comes due — or a trigger event arrives — the platform wakes your assistant automatically and the work begins. If your assistant happens to be mid-conversation with you already, the task simply runs alongside without interrupting.

It works quietly

Tasks run silently by default. Your assistant doesn’t announce “starting your task now” or narrate its progress — it just does the work, and gets in touch when there’s something worth saying:
  • the result, delivered on the channel the task specifies (email, text, WhatsApp, chat — your call), or
  • a question, if it genuinely can’t proceed without you.
If you’re curious while a task is running, the Actions tab shows the work live, step by step — and the Tasks tab shows a Working indicator whenever a run is in progress.

It gets sharper with repetition

For recurring work, your assistant doesn’t start from a blank page each time. Once a routine has run successfully a few times, the platform can lock in the proven approach so future runs follow the same reliable steps — your Friday recap looks and behaves consistently, week after week. This is part of the broader learning system.

Timing details worth knowing

  • Timezone — recurring times like “every morning at 8” follow your assistant’s timezone unless the task says otherwise.
  • Recurring tasks reschedule themselves — when a run finishes, the next occurrence is queued automatically.
  • Stale tasks don’t misfire — if you cancel or edit a task before it fires, the old schedule is quietly dropped; you won’t get a ghost run.

When a run fails

If something goes wrong mid-run, the run is marked Failed in the task’s history with the error recorded — failures are visible, not swallowed. Ask your assistant what happened and it can tell you, fix the problem, or rerun the work.

What tasks cost

A task run consumes credits exactly like the same work would in a live conversation — there’s no separate task fee, and setting up tasks is free. Two consequences:
  • Spending caps apply. A 3am run counts against the same monthly caps as daytime chat. If a cap is hit, the run is blocked rather than billed past the limit.
  • No credits, no run. If your balance is empty, tasks pause until you top up — your assistant will tell you if that happens rather than failing silently.
