# Run

> Let Ted run your business on his own, and watch what he does.

While Run is on, Ted works in the background, pass after pass. Each time, he picks the next most useful thing and does it without being asked, such as improving your website, reaching customers, learning about your business or writing things up.

<Note>
  Your first run is a **Free run**. It starts when you start building your business, and it can’t be paused or stopped. Ted asks you before anything goes public.
</Note>

## Start Run

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Run">
    Choose **Run** at the top of the screen.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose how Ted works">
    Choose the gear button to open Run’s settings. Under **How Ted runs**, pick one, then choose **Save preferences**.

    * **Ask first**: Ted waits for your approval before anything goes public.
    * **Runs on its own**: Ted works on his own and publishes, posts and sends where you allow it. The rest waits for your review.

    Without an active plan, Ted asks before he posts or sends anything.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start">
    Choose **Start Run**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Watch Ted work

**Ted’s activity** lists each thing he does. His current thought floats above his head on the Run canvas. Everything he makes, from every run, is saved in your **Library**.

## When Ted needs you

Ted’s questions show under **Ted needs you**. Answer, or choose **Later** or **Skip**.

Drafts that need your OK wait on **Home**, under **From Ted**. Choose **Review**, then **Approve** or **Decline**.

## Social accounts

Ted can post to the social accounts you connect in Run: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X and Threads. Connecting accounts needs an active plan.

## Pause or stop

Choose **Pause** to take a break and **Resume** to carry on. Choose **Stop** to end the run. Only the owner can start or stop Run.
