Schedulers & Webhook Triggers

Put your business operations on autopilot. Aigenzey Cowork enables autonomous background execution through two intuitive automation primitives: time-based Schedulers and event-driven Webhook Triggers.

Automations Overview

Automations run autonomously in the cloud without requiring you to keep a browser tab open. When a scheduled time arrives or an external business event occurs, Cowork executes the assigned skill, accesses the required tool connections with authorized credentials, compiles the deliverables, and routes the results to your preferred channels.

Scheduled Tasks
Time-Driven Routines
Set up recurring daily, weekly, or monthly tasks in plain language (e.g. "Every Friday at 4 PM, summarize our team's sprint progress and blockers").
Webhook Triggers
Event-Driven Workflows
Receive real-time notifications from Stripe, GitHub, Shopify, or internal tools to trigger instant skill workflows.

Scheduled Tasks & Recurring Briefs

You can create automated schedules directly in your conversation or manage them in Automations → Schedulers.

Scheduling via Natural Language

Simply tell Cowork what you want automated and how often:

  • "Every Monday at 9:00 AM, scan Salesforce for newly closed Enterprise deals and post a celebration summary to #sales-team."
  • "Every weekday at 5:30 PM, review unread high-priority emails in Gmail and send me an executive digest."
  • "On the first day of every month, compile an expense audit report from QuickBooks and share it with Finance."

High-Availability Cloud Execution

  • Guaranteed Single Execution: Enterprise cloud coordination ensures scheduled automations execute reliably exactly once per interval.
  • Timezone Awareness: Runs are automatically calculated according to your configured working timezone.
  • Intelligent Retries & Alerts: If an external third-party API is temporarily unavailable, the system retries gracefully and notifies you with clear status updates.

Event-Driven Webhook Triggers

Webhook triggers allow your external software tools to invoke Cowork skills automatically whenever important business events take place.

Setting Up a Webhook Trigger

  1. Navigate to Automations → Triggers → New Trigger.
  2. Select the Skill or task you want to execute.
  3. Cowork provides you with a secure, unique endpoint URL to paste into your third-party service (e.g. Stripe, GitHub, or Shopify settings):
Secure Webhook Endpoint
POST https://cowork.aigenzey.com/hooks/trg_your_unique_trigger_id

Enterprise Signature Verification

Keep your automations secure by enabling cryptographic signature verification:

  • Enter a shared secret token when creating the trigger.
  • Your external platform includes an authentication signature header with each event payload.
  • Cowork automatically verifies the signature before processing the event, ensuring only genuine business events trigger actions.

Payload Ingestion & Live Actions

When an event fires, incoming data is automatically provided to the agent as input context:

Example Event Data
{
  "event": "customer.escalation",
  "customer_email": "alex@enterprise-client.com",
  "ticket_priority": "urgent",
  "reason": "contract_renewal_query"
}

The agent receives the event, pulls the customer's account history from your CRM, analyzes recent communication threads, and drafts a personalized response for your team to review.

Multi-Channel Result Delivery

Choose how and where you want automation deliverables delivered:

  • In-App Notification Center: Real-time unread badges with detailed execution summaries and interactive artifacts.
  • Direct Email Delivery: Automated email digests containing formatted reports, summary tables, or attached spreadsheets.
  • Team Chat Channels: Instant notifications posted directly into Slack, Microsoft Teams, or Discord channels via authorized connectors.
