New and Improved: September 2025

This month’s updates bring smarter automations: tag-based flows, auto-archiving, in-builder templates, task reminders, and more

Updated over a week ago

Automations just got even more powerful. With this month’s releases, you can use tags to personalize flows, automatically archive projects, create templates on the fly, and more—all designed to help you streamline client management and save time.

📣 Note

  • New features are rolled out in batches to ensure steady deployment and might not be instantly accessible. Feel free to contact our Support team if you have any questions.

  • The updates mentioned in this article are only available in Automations 2.0


Use tags as automation conditions

Tags are now more than just an organizing tool—they’re part of your automation logic:

  • Add a “Wait until tag is added” condition to hold a flow until the right tag is applied

  • Direct projects down a “Yes” or “No” path based on tags

  • Filter all triggers by both project type and tag(s) for more precise control

This means your automations can now adapt more precisely to how you work, not the other way around.

Automatically archive projects

Keep your pipeline clean with automated archiving:

  • Set rules and conditions that archive projects without manual effort

  • Provide a required reason for archival to ensure proper documentation

Now you can maintain an accurate pipeline with less time spent on busywork.

Create templates directly in the builder

No need to pause your workflow—create new email or file templates inside the automation builder and use them immediately. This helps you build faster without switching tabs or losing momentum.

Automations on your home page

Your automations are now front and center:

  • View pending approvals at a glance

  • Track recent automation runs

  • Get prompted to explore and use the latest automation features

All from your HoneyBook homepage—no extra steps required.

Task reminders through email

Tasks created in an automation now send reminder emails on their due dates, just like manual tasks. You’ll never miss an important step, and your team can stay aligned without extra check-ins.

Learn from HoneyBook Pros

In August, HoneyBook hosted 2 Academy webinars on automations, covering both fundamentals and advanced strategies. Members also joined live office hours to get answers and build automations in real time.
