+## Using automations for unlocking productivity and well-being
+
+Automations help you get repetitive tasks out of the way and curate more personalized content to stay focused. 
+
+Automations is an experimental feature we've released that allows you to stay focused in your day by performing repetitive information lookups and queries on your behalf. The results are delivered straight to your inbox. These are super neat, because it's kind of like having someone working on your behalf while you get freed up to go live your life.
