Tines offers a secure, trusted, vendor-agnostic platform to build, run, and monitor intelligent workflows.
This is the 2nd launch from Tines . View more
Tines Story copilot
Launching today
An AI chat interface for the storyboard, Story copilot lets builders in Tines create intelligent workflows from natural language. Beyond building, use Story copilot to optimize workflows for more efficient runs and understand how complex workflows work or why actions fail.
Cut build time from hours to seconds as you automate your most important workflows with Tines and Story copilot.

Thanks for checking this out! I'm one of the engineers who worked on Story copilot. This feature was a ton of fun to build, and we’re really excited to share it with the Product Hunt audience.
Tines is a unified environment for building, running, and monitoring your workflows. This complete control allows us to give LLMs precise, timely context, enabling them to make good decisions while building a workflow. As an example, Story copilot can continuously test the changes it makes while building, allowing self-correction and optimization.
We love crafting delightful experiences for our users and it’s been a real thrill to see this feature enable anyone, regardless of experience, to go from simple prompts to functioning workflows.
We like to think of Story copilot primarily as your building partner, but it’s also there to help you understand and optimize your workflows too. With both a Build and Ask mode, you can do the following:
Build a workflow entirely from scratch
Understand what a workflow is trying to achieve, and how it does so
Optimize or debug an existing workflow
A few things we're particularly proud of:
It doesn't rehash generic templates; it builds bespoke workflows tailored to your specific needs, and can lean on our enormous library of existing workflows
You have full control over the workflow you’re working on. Want to take over from Story copilot? Go for it.
When it first launched, we didn’t track Story copilot’s consumption of AI credits against a tenant’s allocation. Instead, we encouraged our community of builders to really try it out and test its limits, without worrying about the impact on their AI credits. We knew this would help us see how we could support long-term growth and scale. As of May 1, 2026, Story copilot will transition into our monthly AI credit framework - but with a substantial increase to the number of credits available per plan. We have a detailed blog on the subject here.
We’d love to hear what you’ve built with Story copilot — and we’re happy to answer any questions about how it works!

@eoinh What was the biggest surprise for you in terms of what it's been capable to do?
And how are the releases of newer models from the labs impacting copilot?
Tines
@liam_k We've been prototyping AI assisted workflow building for a few years now. We were never happy enough with the end-user experience to go beyond the prototype stage. The prototypes often demoed well if you stayed on the happy-path, but were error-prone and frustrating to use more generally.
Towards the end of last year we observed a step change in capabilities in the frontier models that allowed us to leap from "works well some of the time" to "works well most of the time". It's been pretty remarkable to observe the impact of the improved capabilities in such a tangible way.
We keep a careful eye on new models, and are constantly improving our tooling to allow us to measure their impact (positive or negative) on the end user experience. We're really excited about the future :)
Is it an automated process that automatically corrects itself?
Tines
@zhangbo Hey! You can think of Story copilot as a building assistant. You prompt it with natural language, something like "Build me a workflow for IT service ticket triage" and it will output a workflow for you right on the storyboard. Alternatively, you can prompt it to help you debug or understand your workflows - ex. "Tell me why this action has an error" or "What does this series of actions do" and it will not only give you an answer, but also propose a fix. Is that what you mean by "corrects itself"?

Thanks to everyone for checking out Tines and Story copilot!
While I'm excited for how Story copilot will enable new builders to develop their ideas, I'm also ecstatic to see what this can help unlock for those already familiar with Tines. Despite building in the platform for years, I've found myself constantly using Story copilot to help critique older automations and build out ideas I have over lunch. This is truly something that can be utilized by everyone across the organisation as they discover and build Intelligent Workflows.
Happy to answer any questions you may have about the product!
Tines
This one has been a game-changer for me in building in the product. My technical level is low-to-moderate at best and this feature has unlocked so much value and so many use cases to me. It's been so much quicker to build and iterate.

One of my favorite ways to use Story copilot is to do the muckwork for me. Adding notes, a description, relevant name etc. They're all super important but things I don't want to do 😅
Tines
Developing Story Copilot was an exciting journey, joining later in the process gave me a fresh perspective to expand the architecture and push its capabilities further. Building out new tools for it was especially rewarding, seeing how each addition made the feature more powerful and versatile.
Happy to be sharing it with wider audience! 🤗🥳
Occasionally use story copilot to prototype ideas and/or "spell check" existing workflows for any potential improvements. It's a pretty neat feature!
