STEP ยท 03

Create Your First Task

Hit "New Task", describe what you want in plain English, pick a schedule, and click save. Atlas will run it automatically โ€” no code, no config files, no setup.

"email me a news summary every morning at 8am"

What can you
tell Atlas to do?

Anything you can describe in a sentence, Atlas can run on a schedule. Here are a few examples to get you started.

// Morning briefings "Every weekday at 8am, summarize the top 5 Hacker News stories." // Weather alerts "Check the weather every morning and alert me if rain is expected today." // Multi-step pipeline "Every Friday at 5pm, fetch my GitHub issues and summarize the open ones." // Webhook trigger "When a new form submission arrives via webhook, summarize it."
Core Concepts

Three primitives.
Infinite automation.

Atlas is built on three core concepts. Once you understand these, you can build anything.

Tasks

The atomic unit of Atlas. A task is a natural language instruction with a schedule. "Email me weather every morning" is a task. Atlas runs it on repeat, handles errors, and notifies you of results.

AI Model

Atlas is BYOK โ€” bring your own API key from Gemini, OpenAI, Anthropic, or other supported providers. You choose which model runs your tasks and stay in full control of the AI behind your automations.

Pipelines

Multi-step workflows where each step feeds into the next. Describe the chain in plain language โ€” Atlas handles the sequencing, passes data between steps, and reports back when done.

FAQ

Common questions
answered.

Yes โ€” Atlas is a BYOK (bring your own key) platform. You bring your own API key from a supported provider like Gemini, OpenAI, or Anthropic. This means you're always in control of your AI usage and costs. Atlas never stores your key in plain text.

The free tier supports unlimited tasks โ€” no cap. Pro and Teams tiers are coming soon and will add team workspaces, role-based access, and priority support.

Multi-step pipelines let you chain tasks together so the output of one step feeds into the next. Just describe the sequence in plain language when creating your task โ€” Atlas handles the execution order automatically.

Yes โ€” webhook integrations are available on the Pro plan. You can trigger tasks from incoming webhooks or have Atlas POST results to an external URL when a task completes.
