Control how frequently Ivy AI operates on your behalf
Scheduled actions now support frequency control. Instead of choosing between running once or running indefinitely, you can set an action to stop automatically after a defined number of runs. Open any scheduled action and set a maximum run count alongside your existing day and time settings - once that limit is reached, the action stops with no further input needed. This works alongside your existing scheduling options. Set an action to run on specific days each week, define how many times it should run in total, and let it self-terminate when the window closes.

Why we built it
Users running recurring automations over a fixed period had no clean way to stop them automatically. They had to remember to cancel actions manually, which added friction, wasted tokens, and left unused actions cluttering the board. Frequency control removes that overhead entirely.
Use cases
- A coverage check scheduled to run every Monday and Tuesday for 20 iterations - covering a 10-week campaign window - stops on its own once the final run is complete.
- A recurring action tied to a fixed campaign period terminates automatically at the end of that period, without requiring any manual cancellation.
- In-house teams running time-limited automations can define the exact number of runs upfront, keeping their board clean and their token usage predictable.
- Agencies managing multiple campaigns can set each campaign's automations to self-terminate at the right time, reducing the risk of actions running beyond their intended window.
Why it matters
Most automations are not meant to run forever - they are tied to campaigns, sprints, or specific periods of work. Frequency control brings scheduled actions in line with how that work actually happens, so you spend less time managing your automations and more time acting on what they surface.
