# What is Runlane
Runlane helps SMB teams automate business operations with AI agents. Delegate ad hoc work, schedule routine SOPs, review important actions, and stay in control.
# What does it do
- Create and manage Agents, Skills, Runbooks, Projects, Tables, and task automation.
- Delegate one-off business operations work to Copilot, then turn recurring work into Tasks and Runbooks.
- Automate Tasks with schedules, inbound webhooks, or submitted forms.
- Connect business apps and databases, then scope each agent to the selected tools, skills, and access.
- Pause a run for human approval or input when a decision or missing information is required.
- Set workspace and project AI usage budgets, assign task ownership, and retain run history.
# Use cases
Runlane supports ad hoc and repeatable business operations work. Use Copilot for research, analysis, drafting, and setup. Use Tasks and Runbooks for scheduled or triggered work with controlled access, review, and run history.
