Type it, done.
Create any automation by describing it in plain language. No flowcharts, no drag-and-drop wiring, no developer required.
Connect Timely and Airtable — AI-native workflow automation
Build multi-step AI automations that flow through Timely and Airtable — and chain in 1000+ other apps when the workflow needs them. One instruction, many steps, every API call run by AI. No code, no flowcharts, self-healing.
Timely and Airtable are two anchors of a much bigger automation. Definable Workflow chains your project tracker, your project tracker, and as many other tools as the job needs into a single multi-step flow — built, executed, and verified by AI. Describe the outcome; Workflow plans the steps, runs every API call, branches on conditions, fans out in parallel where useful, retries on failure, and self-heals when an upstream API shifts shape.
What you can automate between Timely and Airtable
6 ways to automate Timely + Airtable
- When a new task is created in Timely, create a task with full context in Airtable
- When a task status changes in Timely, move the task to a new column in Airtable
- When a new task is created in Airtable, create a task with full context in Timely
- When a task status changes in Airtable, move the task to a new column in Timely
- When a sprint closes in Timely, assign the right owner in Airtable, and log the result in a structured record for team review
- When a deadline approaches in Timely, attach a comment with the latest update in Airtable, then send a notification to the assigned owner with the full context
Most automation tools run code. Workflow runs on AI.
AI builds it AND runs it.
Other platforms use AI to generate brittle code that runs offline. Workflow's entire execution layer is AI — it interprets, decides, and acts step by step.
Self-healing by design.
Every step is monitored by a verification layer. If something fails — a rate limit, an unexpected response, a skipped condition — Workflow detects it, corrects it, and reruns automatically.
Cross-tool orchestration.
Multi-step, event-driven, condition-based flows across Timely, Airtable, and 1000+ other tools — all from one instruction.
How Definable Workflow automation works — step by step
- 1
Describe your workflow
Type what you want to happen between Timely and Airtable. No setup wizard.
- 2
Workflow builds it automatically
Definable maps your instruction to the right actions across both tools. You see the plan before it runs.
- 3
AI executes every step
Workflow runs end-to-end. It calls Timely, processes the data, applies your conditions, and fires the Airtable action.
- 4
The verification layer monitors everything
Every step is verified. If something fails, Workflow catches it, adjusts, and retries — without you lifting a finger.
Example workflow
Trigger
When create client in Timely
Condition
If the Timely event matches your configured filter
Action
Create Record From Natural Language in Airtable
Verified
Workflow verified all steps completed successfully.
Frequently asked questions
What can I automate between Timely and Airtable?
Anything you can describe. Workflow connects Timely (your project tracker) and Airtable (your project tracker) through a single instruction. Examples: when a new task is created in Timely, create a task with full context in Airtable; when a task status changes in Timely, move the task to a new column in Airtable. There's no limit to step count or branching depth.
Do I need to write code to connect Timely and Airtable?
No. You describe the outcome in plain language and Workflow assembles the steps, authenticates both tools, runs the flow end-to-end, and self-corrects if anything fails.
What happens if Timely or Airtable returns an unexpected response?
Workflow has a verification layer on every step. If a response is malformed, an API rate-limit hits, or a condition is unmet, Workflow detects it, adjusts, and reruns the step automatically — without breaking the flow.
How is this different from drag-and-drop automation tools?
Most automation tools generate static workflows that run brittle code. Workflow is AI-native: the execution layer interprets each step at runtime, so it adapts when Timely ships an API change or Airtable returns a new field shape. You don't maintain it.
How long does it take to set up?
Minutes. Authenticate Timely and Airtable, type what you want to happen, review the plan Workflow generates, and start running.
Your workflows. Built by AI. Run by AI. Fixed by AI.
Stop maintaining automations. Start describing outcomes. Workflow handles everything between Timely, Airtable, and your entire stack.
