Track sequence progress and outcomes with Workflow Mode

Workflow Mode is a new Automations mode that creates a Workflow record each time an Automation runs, letting you define and analyze outputs and outcomes based on how each step is executed.

A few highlights:

  • Follow the progress of a sequence and see exactly what stage it has reached

  • View the context and outputs of each run from the Workflow record, including objectives, conversations, prompts, and email content

  • Analyze reply, open, and click rates per Automation run, alongside per-email data

  • Executions are trackable in Data Explorer and dashboards

Pause an Automation until a condition is met
Pause an Automation until a condition is met

The Wait Until step holds a record at a point in an Automation until a specified condition is met, with an optional expiration window that branches to a fallback action if the condition is not met in time.

Now you can:

  • Delay a follow up until the recipient opens the previous email

  • Wait until the renewal date is reached before advancing the run

  • Advance only once a health score crosses a defined threshold

  • Branch to a fallback action when the condition is not met within the window
