Use Cases
Use Cases combine your Context, Skills, and Tasks into automated AI workflows. Set triggers to run automatically or on-demand, and deliver results to your favorite tools.
What are Use Cases?
Use Cases are the automation layer of ContextFile.ai. They combine your existing contexts, skills, and tasks into complete workflows that can run automatically based on triggers and deliver outputs to your connected integrations.
"My meeting prep runs automatically 15 minutes before each call, researches all attendees, and posts the briefing to Slack."
AI works for you 24/7, even while you sleep
"Before every meeting I need to manually research attendees, run my prompt, copy the output, and paste it somewhere..."
Manual, repetitive work that wastes your time
The Use Case Formula
Every use case follows this simple formula:
Trigger Types
Choose how and when your use cases run:
Run on-demand with a single click
Run automatically at set times (daily, weekly, etc.)
Trigger when calendar events occur
Trigger from external systems via API
