Scheduled tasks and reminders
Anuma lets you set up recurring AI actions — reminders, regular reports, periodic data checks, and more. Tasks run automatically on your schedule and notify you when they finish.
What scheduled tasks do
- Recurring reminders — Set up daily, weekly, or custom-interval reminders
- Automated reports — Schedule regular AI-generated summaries or analyses
- Periodic checks — Have Anuma run specific tasks at set intervals
- Background research — Kick off long-running Deep Research jobs without keeping a tab open
- Push notifications — Get notified the moment a task finishes, even if Anuma isn’t open
Steps
Step 1: Create a scheduled task
From the chat composer’s + menu, choose Run as task. You can also schedule directly by prompting Anuma — “Remind me every weekday at 9am to review my calendar” — and confirming the task when Anuma proposes the schedule.
Step 2: Set the schedule
Choose how often the task runs:
- One-time — runs once at a specific date and time
- Daily / weekly / monthly — runs on a fixed cadence
- Custom — specify your own interval (e.g., every 3 hours)
Step 3: Confirm and let it run
Anuma confirms the task summary, schedule, and next run time. You can close the app — scheduled tasks run in the background regardless of whether Anuma is open.
Step 4: Get notified when it finishes
When a task completes, Anuma sends a push notification (web push or mobile push, depending on your device) so you know the result is ready. Tap the notification to jump straight to the completed task’s output.
You can also enable notifications for any background agent — long-running jobs like Deep Research are eligible for the same push behavior.
Step 5: Review and manage your tasks
Open the task list to see all active and completed scheduled tasks. From there you can:
- View execution history and past results
- Pause or delete a task
- Edit the schedule or prompt
- Re-run a one-off task
Good to know
- Scheduled tasks consume credits the same way as regular chat — each run is billed by the model and prompt length.
- Tasks use Your Memories for personalized execution, so a recurring task knows your context.
- Push notifications also fire when background agents finish — no more leaving a tab open to wait on a Deep Research job.
- To receive notifications, allow Anuma to send notifications when prompted by your browser or device.
- If a task fails (e.g., an external service was down), Anuma marks the run as failed in the history and you can re-run it manually.
