Parallel Worker Architecture
Dynamic Worker Calculation
Worker count is automatically calculated based on available CPU resources
Worker Capabilities
Dedicated per-task execution ensures no cross-contamination between jobs running simultaneously.
From job pickup to completion, each worker manages the full pipeline including retries and cleanup.
Parses and injects parameters at runtime, supporting both API-supplied and stored credential values.
Seamlessly resumes execution after a reboot, continuing the runbook from exactly where it left off.
Stream live output directly from the remote session, with per-line timestamps and status indicators.
Every action, output line, and state change is persisted to the log store with full searchability.
Detects exit codes, stderr output, and WinRM transport errors, with configurable retry policies.
Instantly alerts the configured recipients via email or webhook when any job enters a failed state.
Automation Execution Types
Single Scripts
Execute individual PowerShell, or Python scripts via WinRM
- PowerShell scripts (.ps1)
- Python scripts (.py)
- API parameter passing support
Hover for more
Run any script on any connected machine instantly. Pass parameters from the API, the UI, or the Job Planer — with full output streaming and log capture.
Runbooks
Chain multiple scripts together to create complex automated workflows
- Sequential script execution
- Error handling and restart
- Variable passing between steps
- API parameter passing support
- Visual workflow designer
Hover for more
Design multi-step workflows visually. Variables flow between steps, reboots are handled automatically, and any failure triggers configurable recovery logic.
Software Deployments
Automate installation, updates, and configuration of applications
- EXE installations
- MSI package deployment
- MSIX package deployment
- WinGet Windows Package Manager
- Multi-App deployment
Hover for more
Deploy software at scale across your entire fleet. Supports silent installs, custom arguments, and WinGet for modern package management — all tracked per machine.
Comprehensive Job Tracking
Unique Job Identification
Every automation job receives a unique identifier for complete traceability
Unique Job Identification
Timestamp-based IDs for instant chronological sorting and audit trail compliance.
Real-time Monitoring
Monitor job execution in real-time with detailed status updates and progress tracking
Real-time Monitoring
Live output streaming from every remote session with per-line timestamps, state transitions, and progress indicators.
Error Detection & Notification
Advanced error detection with immediate notifications and detailed error reporting
Error Detection & Notification
Catches exit codes, stderr, and transport failures. Fires instant alerts via email or webhook so no failure goes unnoticed.
Logging & Troubleshooting
Comprehensive logs for each job execution, searchable by Job ID for easy troubleshooting
Logging & Troubleshooting
Full-text search across all logs. Filter by Job ID, machine, time range, or status. Configurable retention from 1,000 to 100,000 entries.
