1. An automated zipper manifold comprising:
a mixing chamber;
a line extending from a block to a wellbore with hydrocarbons, the line having an inlet directly coupled to the mixing chamber;
a first valve positioned on the line,
a second valve positioned on the line, the first valve and the second valve being positioned in series;
a first pressure transducer positioned between the first valve and the second valve on the line, the first pressure transducer being configured to measure a first pressure between the first valve on the line and the second valve on the line based on fluid flowing to the wellbore;
