Schedule Work with Mo
What Is Scheduled Work in Mo?
Scheduled work is a way to have Mo run one of your prompts automatically on a repeating cadence, instead of asking it fresh every time. Mo emails you the answer when it finishes, along with any files it produced — a workbook, a chart, an export — as download links.
It's built for the questions you'd otherwise have to remember to ask: a Monday morning stockout check, a weekly sell-through summary, a recurring reconciliation. Set it up once, and Mo keeps answering it on its own.
Key Benefits
No login required — the answer lands in your inbox on schedule
Reuses your own prompts — write once, exactly as you'd ask Mo directly
Files included — any workbook, chart, or export Mo generates is attached as a download link
Runs on your terms — pause a schedule any time without losing its setup, or trigger it on demand
Example Prompts to Schedule
Not sure what to schedule? Here are a few common use cases:
Cross-warehouse stockout alerts If your online store fulfills primarily from one warehouse but falls back to a secondary location for select items, it's easy to miss the moment the primary location sells out and a transfer is needed. Schedule Mo to check regularly:
Explore automatic low-stock transfer alerts for non-uniform item splits across warehouses
Monday stockout check
Summarise which SKUs are at risk of stocking out in the next 30 days
Weekly sell-through summary
Give me sell-through rate by category for the past 7 days, compared to the prior week
Recurring PO reconciliation
List any purchase orders that were expected to arrive this week but haven't been marked received

How to Schedule a Prompt
Name it and write the prompt
Fill in:
Name — a short label so you can recognize it later, e.g.
Monday stockout checkWhat should Mo do? — the prompt Mo will run each time, e.g.
Summarise which SKUs are at risk of stocking out in the next 30 daysAn optional starting document, if the prompt needs a file to work from
Managing Your Scheduled Work
Open Scheduled work from the same ⋮ menu to see everything you've set up. Each entry shows its name, cadence, and when it last ran, plus:
Run now — trigger an immediate run without waiting for the next scheduled time
Pause / Resume — pause a schedule to stop it running without deleting its setup, and resume it later
Expand an entry to see its recent runs — up to the last three, each with a status, timestamp, and (once it's finished) a link to continue that conversation in Mo
There's currently no way to edit a schedule's name, prompt, or cadence, or to delete it outright — pausing is the way to stop a schedule you no longer need.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many prompts can I schedule?
Answer: Up to 5 scheduled items per user. If you're at the limit and need another, pause or free up one of your existing schedules first.
What does the email look like?
Answer: Mo writes the subject and summary based on what that specific run actually found, rather than reusing a fixed template. Any files Mo generates — workbooks, charts, exports — are included as download links.
Do the download links expire?
Answer: Yes. Links to files from a scheduled run are available for 7 days after the run completes. Continue the conversation in Mo directly if you need the underlying data after that.
Can I schedule a prompt for someone else on my team?
Answer: No — a scheduled prompt runs and emails the person who created it. Each teammate sets up their own scheduled work from their own Mo chat.
