Rerun
Quick Answer
Rerun is a no-code platform for building AI agents that run continuously and handle recurring operational tasks, chasing invoices, qualifying leads, or clearing an inbox, while giving you live visibility into every step and a required approval checkpoint before anything sensitive happens.
This page covers rerun.build, the AI agent platform. There is a separate, unrelated tool also called Rerun used in robotics and computer-vision work for visualizing sensor and model data; the two share a name but nothing else.
What Rerun Is Best For
- Recurring operational work: tasks that repeat on a schedule rather than one-off automations
- Non-technical teams: building agents without writing code
- Human oversight on sensitive actions: approval required before the agent acts on anything that matters
- Visibility into agent behavior: live dashboards instead of a black-box result
How It Works
You build an agent through a no-code interface and connect it to the tools you already use. The agent runs continuously, and for routine steps it proceeds on its own. When it reaches something sensitive, a call, a payment, an outbound message, it pauses and hands control back to you. You approve from the Rerun app or directly from Slack, and the agent resumes exactly where it stopped.
Each workspace runs on its own dedicated cloud server, isolated from other customers’ agents, rather than sharing infrastructure.
Practical Use Cases
- Chasing overdue invoices without manually tracking each one
- Qualifying inbound leads before they reach a salesperson
- Triaging and clearing a shared inbox
- Any recurring, rules-based task that currently eats staff time but needs a human check before anything final happens
Honest Limitations
- No-code has ceilings: highly custom logic may need a more flexible, code-based tool instead
- Approval steps add friction by design: appropriate for sensitive actions, but not for teams wanting fully hands-off automation
- New platform: verify current integrations and reliability against your specific tools before depending on it for critical workflows
- Naming collision: don’t confuse it with the unrelated robotics visualization tool of the same name
Alternatives Worth Knowing
- Lindy, another no-code AI agent builder
- n8n and Zapier, broader automation platforms with AI steps
- HumanLayer, infrastructure focused specifically on human approval for AI agent actions
- Gumloop, a no-code AI workflow builder

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Rerun best for?
Rerun is best for non-technical teams who want to automate recurring operational work, chasing invoices, qualifying leads, clearing an inbox, without writing code, while keeping a human in the loop for anything sensitive.
Is Rerun the same as the Rerun visualization tool for robotics and computer vision?
No. This page covers rerun.build, a no-code AI agent platform for business tasks. There is a separate, unrelated project called Rerun used for visualizing multimodal data in robotics and computer-vision work. Check the URL before assuming which product a mention refers to.
Does Rerun ask for approval before doing anything risky?
Yes, that's a core feature. On calls or actions that matter, the agent pauses and hands control back to you, and you can approve from the app or from Slack. It resumes exactly where it left off once approved.
Can I see what a Rerun agent is actually doing?
Rerun provides live dashboards, metrics, and logs so you can watch each run, step, and handoff as it happens, rather than only seeing a final result.
