BoringUsertools.comWORKFLOW INTELLIGENCE FOR FOUNDERS
Automate your startup in hours, not days.
Stop wasting time on manual tasks. BoringUserTools gives you a battle-tested automation stack and workflow strategy tailored to your stage, tools, and bottlenecks, complete with templates, tool guides, and a sandbox to test before going live.
Share Your Automation with the Community
Have you built an automation that saves you time? Share it with other founders and help them automate too. Approved submissions get added to our directory.
All submissions are reviewed before publishing. Community-approved automations are credited to their creators.
The workflow intelligence layer
Most automation tools focus on execution. They run triggers, API calls, browser scripts, and scheduled jobs. BoringUserTools focuses on what happens before execution: diagnosing bottlenecks, choosing the right tools, designing durable workflows, and validating flows before you connect real data.
Execution tools are interchangeable. Workflow strategy is not. We sit above your stack to act as the system that decides what to automate, why it matters, and how it fits together.
Who BoringUserTools is PERFECT for
Choose the path that matches how you work. The workflows and templates adapt to your role.
Problem
You spend hours every week on metrics, investor updates, churn checks, and feedback. Nothing is truly automatic and things break as you grow.
Solution
- Auto-generate weekly investor updates from Stripe and analytics.
- Trigger churn-prevention flows when usage drops or payments fail.
- Sync customer feedback from support tools into a central log with sentiment tagging.
Outcome
Reliable visibility into your business without hand-building reports every week.

How is this different from just Googling 'automation ideas'?
Every automation is impact-scored, includes real time savings data, and comes with step-by-step setup guides. No fluff, no listicles, no affiliate spam. Just vetted workflows that founders have used to save hundreds of hours. Plus, the AI Advisor helps you prioritize based on your specific bottlenecks and tech stack.
Do I need technical skills to use these automations?
Most automations are designed for founders with basic technical literacy—if you can connect Zapier or follow a tutorial, you're good. Each automation is tagged by complexity (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced) so you can start with quick wins and level up as you build confidence.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no gotchas. Cancel whenever you want and your data stays yours. We're not interested in trapping people—we'd rather you stay because the product saves you time, not because you're locked in.
What does the AI Advisor actually do?
Think of it as a personal automation consultant. Ask it about bottlenecks, get tool recommendations, explore specific workflows, or have it build you a prioritized 30-day automation roadmap. It knows your profile, your stack, and what you've already saved—so every answer is contextual and actionable.
