# Workflows

> Turn a task you repeat into a saved process with its own rules and budget.

Workflows let you save a process and run it again with new inputs. Your agent
builds it, Locus runs it, and you can review the results and cost in the dashboard.

Use a Workflow to qualify a list of companies, turn research into a consistent
report, or process new records using the same rules each time. It can combine
Tools and Recipes, filter results, and produce a file for you to use.

## Create your first Workflow

Ask your connected agent to build one:

```text title="Try this prompt" wrap theme={null}
Create a Workflow that takes a list of company domains, researches each company, and returns a CSV with industry, size, sources, and whether it fits our criteria: US software companies with 20 to 200 employees. Mark missing evidence as unknown. Test it on three companies with a 500-credit budget.
```

Include your input, desired output, decision rules, and spending limit. Your
agent handles the code and validation through your existing Locus connection.

## From draft to a repeatable run

<Steps>
  <Step title="Build and test">
    Your agent creates the Workflow and tests its logic with sample data.
    These checks do not call paid providers.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save and try live data">
    Save a version, then run a small pilot with a credit limit. Review the
    output before processing the full list.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run it again">
    Use the saved version with new inputs and a budget. Later edits create a
    new version, so you can keep using the process you tested.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Review results and spending

Open **Workflows** to see run status, results, tool calls, errors, and credits
charged. Workflows use your existing balance and approved tools.

You can cancel a run to stop further calls. Completed work remains charged.
Your agent can inspect an interrupted run and resume it when supported.

<Note>
  Create and edit Workflows through your agent. Saving one does not schedule
  it; start each run when you need it.
</Note>

For a single research or enrichment task, try a
[Recipe](/locus-pro/individual/recipes). A Workflow adds your own rules and makes
the process reusable.
