Pipeline automations and stage triggers
Trigger workflows when a deal moves stages, hits a value, or sits idle.

Every move on a Pipeline AI board can fire a workflow. Use this to send confirmations, assign tasks, swap owners, or alert a manager.
Common patterns
- When stage = Demo Booked → send the prep email and add the prospect to a Slack channel.
- When stage = Proposal Sent → start a 4-step follow-up cadence.
- When stage = Won → trigger an OpenPay invoice, send the welcome email, and create an onboarding pipeline opportunity.
- When stage = Lost → ask for the reason, tag accordingly, and add to a 90-day re-engagement workflow.
- When idle in a stage for 7 days → notify the owner; after 14 days, escalate.
