The Timeline block
The Timeline block draws the lead's next phases in order along a visual rail — each phase with a title and what happens during it. It turns "here's your plan" into something that looks like a journey.
What to use it for
- A 90-day roadmap for a coaching client, with phases matched to where they're starting from.
- The stages of working with you — onboarding, strategy, execution, review — personalized with what each stage means for this lead.
- A launch plan where the phases shift depending on what the lead already has in place.
Settings
- Prompt / Instructions — what the timeline covers, the time span, and what each phase should include.
- How Many — 3 to 6 phases.
- Marker — 1, 2, 3 · A, B, C · or Icon (the AI picks an icon per phase to match what happens there).
- Layout — Rail (a single line down the left), Alternating (phases zig-zag either side of a center line on wide screens), or Compact (a tighter rail with no card chrome, for long timelines).
- Show Kicker — the small uppercase label above the timeline, written by the AI.
- Skill, Intake Data / Prev. Steps, Loading Phrases — the shared AI block settings.
Good to know
- Timeline is for phases over time; if the moves are "do this, then this" without dates or stages, the Steps block reads more naturally.
