This is a menu of the ways customers actually put Rundoo AI to work — organized so you can scan, find a pattern that matches a question you have today, and try it in the next 30 seconds.
In the POS mode, the Rundoo AI tab sits under Analytics in the left sidebar — or tap the ✨ sparkle in the top-right of the header from anywhere in the app to open the same surface in a pop-over.

Rundoo's take on AI workflows is the AAA framework: Analyze, Act, Automate. Every pattern below is one of those three. Knowing which layer you're in helps you pick the right tool.
Analyze is the starting point — you ask Rundoo AI a question you'd have otherwise pulled a report for, or honestly just skipped. "Who hasn't bought in 60 days that usually does?" "Which products lost margin last month?" This is 70–90% of day-to-day AI usage. It runs in the Chat surface shown above.
Act is the next step up — you ask Rundoo AI to do something, not just report. Draft an outreach email. Produce a reorder list. Propose a price correction. Still a prompt you type in Chat, still one-shot — but Rundoo AI comes back with a draft artifact you can edit and use. The line between Analyze and Act is "did the answer move me any work forward, or just inform me?"
Automate is the hand-off. Take the same question or the same action, and let it run on a schedule. Results get texted to your phone. This is where AI Agents come in — see that page for how to set a schedule, assign a recipient, and pick the agent type.
Three operational areas cover most of what customers ask Rundoo AI about: Relationships, Pricing, and Inventory. Each one gets the AAA treatment.
Customers and contractors. Who's active, who's slipping, and what to say to them.
Ask Rundoo AI:
Who hasn't bought from me in 60 days that usually does?
You'll get a list of customers whose purchase cadence has dropped off, with their typical-month spend for comparison. Ron Soto at AllPro Paints put it this way: "It's crazy how quick it can pull three years of data and tell me exactly who hasn't bought this year."

These work best when you're specific about the time window. this month, last 30 days, since March 1 — Rundoo AI will ask if you don't say.
