Deeto's automation engine collects and generates authentic customer voice continuously, without manual intervention after setup. Every automation includes full screening and supervision layers so your team can review, approve, and control all generated content — ensuring transparency, compliance, and brand integrity. **Core principle:** Set it and forget it. These automations run in the background, triggered by CRM fields, customer lifecycle stages, and behavioral signals to capture the right voice at the right moment. *** ## Customer Marketing Automations ### 1.
