Timers
A timer runs an action at the times you choose, in your own time zone, with nobody there to start it.
How Typestate does it
- Your agent sets the times and the action to run.
- The timer follows your time zone, summer time included.
- A timer can run the action once for each person, as that person.
What you can do with it
- Send the daily digest at 07:00 Berlin time.
- Close unpaid orders every night.
- Remind each member of their booking the day before.
- Ask a connected system for new items every 10 minutes.
