Schedule a recurring AI Tool run

Learn how to schedule a supported AI Tool to run again on an hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly cadence.

Last verified 3 days ago

Use scheduled tasks when you want a supported AI Tool to run again with the same saved inputs. This is useful for repeatable marketing jobs such as recurring research checks, fresh creative prompts, or routine data pulls that should happen on a cadence inside Ampere.

Scheduling in Ampere is for recurring supported catalog runs. It is not a general social scheduler, email sender, or full marketing automation platform.

Before you start

Make sure you have:

  • A signed-in Ampere account in an organization with an active plan.
  • The AI Tool inputs you want Ampere to reuse each time the task runs.
  • Enough credits for future scheduled runs. Browsing and managing scheduled tasks does not spend credits, but scheduled AI Tool runs use the same shared organization credit pool as other runs.

Open the AI Tool

From Tools Catalog, open the AI Tool you want to schedule. On the tool page, stay on the Playground tab.

Confirm that the tool matches the job you want repeated, then fill in the required inputs. The Schedule action uses the current form values, so review the prompt, URLs, files, options, and advanced settings before you continue.

Open the schedule dialog

Select Schedule. Ampere validates the inputs first. If a required field is missing or invalid, fix the form and select Schedule again.

When the schedule dialog opens, the Inputs section shows that the task inputs have been validated. Expand it if you want to review what Ampere will reuse for future runs.

Name the task and choose a cadence

Give the task a clear name, such as "Weekly competitor ad scan" or "Daily launch image concept." Add an optional description when it will help teammates understand the purpose of the task.

Choose a schedule type:

  • Hourly runs once every hour at the minute you choose.
  • Daily runs once every day at a specific time.
  • Weekly runs on selected weekdays at a specific time.
  • Monthly runs on a selected day of the month.

The time picker uses the schedule precision currently available in Ampere. The current user-facing picker exposes hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly schedules.

Review timezone and optional limits

Check the Timezone field before you create the task. Ampere starts with your browser's detected timezone, but you can change it if the work should run on another business schedule.

Open Advanced Options when you need limits:

  • Maximum Runs stops the task after a set number of runs.
  • Auto-pause after failures controls how many consecutive failures can happen before Ampere pauses the task.

Leave these options at their defaults when you want the task to keep running without a fixed run count.

Create the task

Select Create Task. Ampere saves the task and shows it on that AI Tool's Scheduled Tasks tab.

After you schedule an AI Tool, its Scheduled Tasks tab shows the task name, status, cadence, timezone, next run, and quick actions.

The scheduled task row shows the task status, cadence, timezone, next run, run count, Run Now, and more actions. A newly created future task may show 0 runs until its first scheduled or manual run starts.

Manage scheduled work

Use the AI Tool's Scheduled Tasks tab when you want to manage tasks for that specific tool.

Use Scheduled Tasks in the app sidebar when you want an organization-wide view. The dashboard includes overview and manage tabs, time ranges, summary metrics, execution charts, AI Tool breakdown, failure analysis, task tables, and detail sheets.

Scheduled tasks can pause after repeated failures or insufficient credits. If a task stops running, review the task details, credits, and latest execution history before resuming it.
