Explore use cases

## Automations are the logic that helps your team keep up

Workflow orchestration

### Keep production running

Address process bottlenecks as they occur and prevent production delays.

- Dispatch work on a schedule
- Assign work orders based on available equipment
- Automate replenishment requests as materials run out
- Notify the operator when the machine stops running

Machine notifications

### Maximize equipment uptime

React faster to machine stoppages with alerts and automate resolution tasks.

- Trigger maintenance schedules automatically
- Log downtime data directly into your tables for full visibility
- Respond instantly with instructions when issues occur

Quality events

### Resolve issues faster

Kick off your response to defects and deviations automatically.

- Notify the right people based on the scenario and availability
- Create a defect report when an operator flags a defect
- Send an alert when temperature, humidity, or vibration sensor readings fall outside of a range

Scheduled tasks

### Automate recurring activities

Spend less time assigning daily, weekly, or monthly activities

- Create weekly reports
- Send reminders over email, SMS, or other business systems
- Schedule weekly training reminders for your team
- Assign calibration or cleaning tasks

**Start with Events**

Define a critical operational event, such as a machine stop or new ERP record, to kick off your headless workflow.

**Assign Actions**

Use action blocks, AI prompt actions, or composable agents to perform automated tasks, connect to external systems for data I/O.

![Functions](https://tulip.widen.net/content/ddiamg2rso/)

## Write the logic once. Reuse it with confidence everywhere.

Use Functions to centralize the logic every app depends on. Build it, validate it, and govern it in one place, then let every solution builder use it in their apps.

![Agents](https://tulip.widen.net/content/zhzrdet0h9/)

## Automate the predictable. Let AI agents handle the rest.

Use Automations for fixed, rules-based processes. Use AI Agents when the work requires reasoning, context, or a decision that isn't the same every time.
