What it automates
New user onboarding
A first-time visitor chats, completes the 4-step profile (name, stage, challenge, goal), and receives tailored advice from the next message onward.
Weekly check-in for returning users
Every Sunday an onboarded user gets a personalized Gmail with progress notes, a new challenge, and a quote from a woman leader.
Intent-specific coaching session
User asks about salary negotiation; the workflow detects the category, loads last 5 messages, and replies with one actionable step plus a follow-up question.
