Workflows
It does the work.
This is the real workflow card, mid-decision. Stale Deal Rescue noticed two deals had gone quiet, drafted the follow-ups, and stopped — the sends are held until you approve. Everything you see is the actual surface a founder operates from: the trigger, the drafted action, the prediction of what happens if you do nothing, and the two buttons.
Notice
Triggers fire on rows, not calendars.
A workflow watches a condition in your data — a deal quiet past its threshold, a metric diverging from baseline, a goal falling behind. When the condition becomes true on real rows, the run starts; nothing wakes up just because it’s 9am.
Here the trigger is “a deal stalls for 12 days” and it matched two real pipeline rows, with the days-quiet counted from actual contact history.
Draft & hold
It stops at the last safe step.
Runs are durable and step-by-step: scan, find, draft, send. Nerve executes everything reversible — the research, the drafts — then parks at the first step with outside consequences. The timeline shows exactly where it stopped and why.
The drafts are real and waiting in the run; approving releases them, skipping archives them. Either way the deal history records what happened.
Approve
Autonomy is earned, never assumed.
Every workflow starts at “draft & ask” — it prepares, you approve. As a workflow builds a success record, Nerve offers wider grants: act-and-notify, then full auto. The grant is per workflow, visible, and revocable in one tap.
Two floors never move: external sends stay gated until the highest tier, and email requires its own explicit grant on top. “Stop Nerve from doing this” is always one click away.
On the record
Every action, attributed.
Everything a workflow does lands in the audit log — what happened, which workflow did it, when, and whether it can be undone. Reversible actions can be rolled back from the log itself.
The same log records your side: approvals, skips, and stops. When you ask “what changed while I was out?”, this is the ledger that answers.
