# SAC 360º Automation - Function: Time Limiter

## With SprintHub, you can optimize your customer service automations by controlling the execution time of actions. It is possible to limit Leads, allowing only a specific quantity to advance every X hours or days, or to set strategic delays at the start of actions for a more organized and efficient flow.
