Automation

Automation that proposes. People approve.

Workflows react to what happens in the newsroom and agents do the legwork, but neither changes anything people see without approval. Every step is recorded.

A workflow in the visual builder: a trigger, a condition and steps, with branch lanesA workflow in the visual builder: a trigger, a condition and steps, with branch lanes

Workflows

When this happens, do that

Triggers

  • A newsroom event: a breaking event over a score, a story submitted, a clip ready, a delivery failed
  • A schedule, in the newsroom's time zone
  • A diary entry coming up with nobody covering it
  • An inbound webhook, or a manual run

Steps

  • Run an Alpha Omega operator or an agent
  • Propose an assignment, a story or a rundown slot
  • Ask for an approval, notify people, call a signed webhook
  • Transcribe a clip or make a presenter video
  • Wait, and branch on a condition

Built visually

A trigger card, conditions and steps, drag to reorder, with branches side by side and problems shown as you build.

Runs reliably

Each step is stored and retried if it fails; each event starts a workflow once.

Step by step

Every run shown as a timeline of its steps, with inputs, outputs, approvals and links.

Templates

Start from five: breaking brief, checks on submit with legal review, asset ready, publication failed, diary nudge.

Agents

Agents that do the legwork and leave the decisions to you

Each agent has instructions, a set of tools, a model tier, a step limit and a budget. Its tools only read or propose; anything that would change what people see becomes a proposal in the approval queue.

  • Watch a run live, step by step, and stop it at any time
  • Every model call passes the governance gate
  • Every step in the AI register, with its cost

Built-in agents

Six agents to start with

Breaking desk

Watches developing events, drafts briefs and proposes assignments.

Rundown producer

Proposes a running order and timing for a show from the approved stories.

Packager

Proposes versions of a story for every channel.

Research

Background and context with citations, using web search when the newsroom allows it.

Fact checker

Lists a story's claims and what supports them.

Social monitor

Summarises social and competitor signals on a schedule.

Workflows and agents act through Newsagent’s own commands, with the same permissions, checks and audit trail as a person.
