Auto Sequence automatically enrolls new contacts into an email sequence the moment they're added to one of your lists — no manual steps needed. Only revealed contacts are enrolled, so you stay in control of credit usage.
💡 Note: When Auto Sequence runs, it also auto-reveals the contact's email address (Auto-Show). Each email reveal uses 1 credit.
How to set up Auto Sequence
Open a contact list and select the contacts you want to automate, or click Add to sequence in the top panel without selecting contacts to apply to all.
2. In the automation panel:
Choose Only new contacts or All contacts in this page.
Select an existing sequence or type a name to create a new one.
3. Click Add contacts to a sequence.
The automation is now active. New contacts added to this list will be automatically enrolled in the selected sequence.
