Welcome to Nebula

Describe any business process in plain English — or pick a template — and Nebula helps you automate it.

Built for operators and managers across industries — retail, healthcare, logistics, finance, hospitality, and more.

Welcome to Nebula

No coding required. Describe any business process in plain English (or pick a template) and Nebula helps you build the workflow.

Nebula is part of the Galaxia ecosystem. It turns everyday work — follow-ups, appointments, invoices, onboarding — into automations you can review, edit, and run.

Preview environment

Payments and SMS stay simulated until production providers are connected. You can still build, customize, and demonstrate full workflows.

Quick Start (3 steps)

  1. Open the Builder, choose your industry (or Other / Custom), and type what you want — e.g. “Automate payroll for my 12 employees.”
  2. Or go to Templates → pick an Industry Starter Pack (Retail includes the UPS Store pack) → Use this template.
  3. Review the plan on the canvas → Publish to testnet → choose Run once or Schedule.

Stuck? Try a starter prompt

Use an industry example like “When a shipment is delayed, notify the customer” or “Send patients a reminder 48 hours before their appointment.” The planner stays on your request.

Using the AI Planner

The AI planner turns your description into modules on a visual canvas. Industry selection biases language and suggestions — your exact request always wins.

  • Be specific: process, how often, people/locations, and what should happen.
  • Good example: “Automate bi-weekly payroll for 12 employees across 3 locations, with overtime alerts.”
  • The planner stays on intent — payroll stays payroll; appointments stay appointments.
  • Read “Why this plan?” then refine in chat (“make payroll weekly”, “add shipping notifications”).
  • Say accept to load the plan, then Publish when ready.

Templates & Industries

Templates are ready-made automations. Industry Starter Packs cover Retail (including UPS Store), Healthcare, Energy, Entertainment, Logistics, Finance, and Hospitality.

  • UPS Store Starter Pack remains fully supported under Retail & Franchise.
  • Maturity badges: Testnet ready / Simulated ops / Scaffold.
  • Filter with Templates tabs or /templates?vertical=healthcare (etc.).
  • After loading, edit module settings on the right.

The Builder Canvas

The canvas shows triggers → actions → conditions → outputs. Each node is a configurable module.

  • Choose industry early for better prompts — or Other / Custom for any niche.
  • Module library, canvas, and config panel work the same across industries.
  • Empty canvas? Describe a need or load an Industry Starter Pack. Use Save anytime — projects persist in this browser (and cloud when signed in).

Publishing to Testnet

Publish puts your automation on Nebula’s testnet runtime so you can try it safely.

  • Run once: sample execution immediately.
  • Schedule: daily, weekly, bi-weekly, or on event (testnet scheduler).
  • You get a live testnet endpoint, trigger instructions, and sample logs.
  • SMS and bank rails stay simulated by design.
  • Optional (feature-flagged): wallet deploy of a simple loyalty/points ERC-20 on public testnets for demos — secondary to simulated publish; never mainnet.
  • Proof / Activity: open Proof in the builder, Dashboard, or /proof to show buyers only real saved publishes and testnet token deploys.

Honest about simulation

Operational rails are simulated on purpose. You still get a realistic endpoint and logs for team demos. Optional on-chain loyalty token deploy (when enabled) is Testnet only and does not replace the primary simulated publish path.

Understanding Testnet vs Real

  • Works today: describe → plan → customize → publish → run once / schedule.
  • Simulated: real SMS, real bank/ACH, production carrier billing, regulated KYC authority.
  • Optional wallet token deploy (flagged): real public-testnet ERC-20 only — not mainnet, not ACH/SMS.
  • Healthcare: HIPAA-aware workflow design language — not a HIPAA certification claim.
  • Finance: operational invoice/expense simulation — not a regulated financial product.

Tips by Industry

  • Retail: payroll, shipping, inventory, loyalty, multi-store (UPS Store pack available).
  • Healthcare: appointment reminders, credentials, claims alerts, supply inventory.
  • Energy: dispatch, outages, meter anomalies, inspections.
  • Logistics: shipment exceptions, pick/pack, driver schedules.
  • Finance: invoices, onboarding checklists, expenses, multi-office.
  • Hospitality: bookings, housekeeping, guest loyalty, multi-property.
  • Custom: describe any niche (e.g. dog grooming) — Nebula will attempt a practical flow.

Troubleshooting

  • Wrong plan direction: restate the main process in one sentence, or switch industry and retry.
  • Publish issues: select a testnet network, try Run once, refresh if the overlay freezes.
  • Wallet token deploy (if enabled): wrong network / insufficient faucet funds / user rejection show clear errors — this path never fakes success.
  • Template empty: use ?template=true when opening from Templates.
  • Need help?: floating button → tour, starter packs, or this Guide.
