BuildBetter Workflows automate repetitive tasks by responding to events in your workspace. Set up workflows to organize recordings, route signals, send data to webhooks, and more - all without manual intervention.

What Are Workflows?

Workflows are automated processes that:
  • Trigger on events (new recording, signal extracted)
  • Evaluate AI-powered conditions (optional)
  • Execute actions (send to webhook, add to folder, apply tag)

Event-Driven

Automatically respond when calls are processed or signals are extracted

AI-Powered

Use natural language conditions for intelligent filtering

Flexible Actions

Send to webhooks, organize content, or extract specific insights

Easy Setup

Template-based creation with simple configuration

Available Workflow Types

BuildBetter provides 9 built-in workflows:

Recording Organization

  • Recording to Folder by Title: Auto-file based on title patterns
  • Recording to Folder: Route to folders using AI conditions
  • Recording to Tag: Auto-tag based on content

Webhook Integrations

  • Recording Summary to Webhook: Send call summaries
  • Send Call to Webhook: Send complete call data
  • Transcript to Webhook: Send full transcripts
  • Answer Questions to Webhook: AI-powered Q&A extraction

Signal Routing

  • Signal to Webhook: Send formatted signals with conditions
  • Send Signal to Webhook: Send complete signal data

How Workflows Work

1

Trigger Event

Workflow activates when a call is processed or signal is extracted
2

Condition Evaluation

If you’ve set a condition, AI evaluates whether content matches
3

Action Execution

If triggered and condition passes, workflow executes its action
4

Completion

Status updates in workflows list, ready for next trigger
Workflows run automatically in the background. No manual intervention required once configured.

Common Use Cases

Automate Meeting Organization

  • Route customer calls to Research folder
  • Tag competitive mentions automatically
  • Organize by team or project

Integrate with External Tools

  • Send summaries to CRM via webhook
  • Archive transcripts to data warehouse
  • Route signals to product management tools

Extract Specific Insights

  • Answer questions about each call automatically
  • Extract action items to task management
  • Pull pain points for product analysis

Getting Started

1

Explore Templates

Browse available workflow types in Workflows → Templates
2

Create First Workflow

Start simple with “Recording to Folder by Title”
3

Test Execution

Use “Run Now” to test with existing calls
4

Monitor Results

Check workflows list for execution status
5

Expand Usage

Add more workflows as you identify automation opportunities
Start with simple title-based organization workflows before moving to AI-powered conditional workflows. This helps you understand the system before building complex automations.

What Workflows Can and Cannot Do

✅ What Workflows CAN Do:

  • React to call creation and signal extraction events
  • Use AI to evaluate natural language conditions
  • Send data to HTTPS webhooks
  • Organize recordings into folders
  • Apply tags automatically
  • Extract AI-powered answers to questions
  • Format output as JSON, text, or markdown

❌ What Workflows CANNOT Do:

  • Time-based scheduling (no hourly/daily/weekly triggers)
  • Batch process historical data
  • Use AND/OR logic in conditions
  • Execute multiple actions in parallel
  • Branch based on outcomes
  • Connect directly to apps (Slack, Jira, etc.) - use webhooks
  • Provide detailed execution logs
  • Retry failed webhooks with custom logic
For advanced automation needs (scheduling, complex logic, native integrations), use Zapier with BuildBetter’s triggers and actions.

Best Practices

Start simple: Create basic workflows before building complex automations
Test first: Use “Run Now” and webhook.site to verify before production
Descriptive names: Clear naming helps team understanding and maintenance
Monitor regularly: Check execution status weekly to catch issues
Use conditions wisely: Not every workflow needs a condition - sometimes “all calls” is right
