Real work that runs without you: full autonomous turns with tool access on your schedule, whether cron, intervals, or triggers like a new email.
Describe what should happen and when. Your agent runs full autonomous turns with tool access on the cadence you set: cron, recurring interval, or event triggers like new_email and new_public_message.
Most "schedulers" send reminders. Fasrad schedules real agent turns. When a task fires, your agent gets a full LLM turn with every tool enabled. It can browse the web, email your clients, update a spreadsheet, call an API, run a script, and write the results back. You get the work done, with no nudge to go do it yourself.
Schedule in plain language. *“Every Monday at 9am, re-check the top 5 competitor pricing pages and email me the diff”* becomes a cron-based Task. *“Tomorrow at 8am, check if the inbound from Acme got a response yet and chase if not”* becomes a one-shot Task with a smart follow-up. *“Whenever a new lead captures, enrich them from the web and add to the CRM”* becomes an event trigger.
Strongest benefits:
Next to Zapier / Make, Fasrad is conversational. You describe what should happen in a chat, and your agent writes and schedules the logic. You write plain English and a cadence, with no per-integration setup or visual workflow builder. Email, calendar, sheets, browse and HTTP are available on every fire.
Next to a cron job + script, Fasrad adapts. Cron runs the same commands whatever the context. Your autonomous agent reads the current state (your calendar, your email, last week's data), decides what to do, and runs it, with human checkpoints wherever you configure them.
Guardrails in the code keep things contained: 20 one-shots per hour per agent, 15 pending tasks max, duplicate recurring tasks rejected, and a circuit breaker that blocks new retries when the last 2 of 3 similar tasks hit the same external error.
Buyers usually compare these adjacent jobs before choosing an AI agent.
Cron runs a fixed command. Your Fasrad autonomous agent runs a full LLM turn with tool access. It reads current state, decides what to do, and handles changes: the list grew, the API format shifted, the recipient changed.
Yes. On each fire, the agent has all tools enabled (subject to your permissions). You choose per tool whether it sends directly or drafts for approval.
Yes. Every Task fire is logged on your /tasks page with inputs, tool calls, outputs, and timestamps. The audit trail is permanent.
There are three events today: new_email (mail arrives in your agent's inbox), new_public_message (someone writes in your public agent chat), and lead_captured (your public agent saves a lead). You attach a prompt plus a max_frequency (every_time / once_per_hour / once_per_day).
A circuit breaker blocks new retries when the last 2 of 3 similar tasks hit the same external error. Rate limits (20/hour one-shots, 15 pending max) keep it from running away. You can cancel any Task from the /tasks page.
Yes. Disable the agent and every scheduled Task pauses. Re-enable to resume. You can cancel individual Tasks without affecting the rest.
Those are specializations. Developer Agent emphasizes script execution + API discovery. Incident Responder emphasizes alert-driven runbooks. Autonomous Agent is the scheduling and autonomy primitive they both build on, general enough for any repeatable task.
