📢 Assistant Web is now in preview - be the first to try it!

Maybe I’m just dense. Still not getting it.

So I’m sitting at my desk, using my computer… and dreading some repetitive work I must do. Luckily I remember there’s an automation for that.

So do I:

  • Click near the clock to open Assistant and run the automation

or do I…

  • Open my browser
  • Sign into Automation Cloud
  • Click on “More”
  • Click on the Assistant tab
  • Run the automation

Which one seems like a time saver?

What am I missing?

How will Autopilot integration change this interaction?

Also… if the assertion is that this makes it easier for business users to run an unattended automation:

  • Much like the original desktop assistant… the STOP button for web Assistant is actually a mislabeled KILL button (this really should be changed on both), and I guarantee this will cause undesirable results when used on an unattended automation that was designed to elegantly terminate using a SHOULD STOP activity
