Connect 5pm and The Old Reader
When New Progress fires in 5pm, your agent runs Update item in The Old Reader, or New item in The Old Reader to Add Task Progress in 5pm. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

Questions
5pm and The Old Reader, answered
What can start an automation from 5pm?
Any of 5pm's 7 triggers in the catalog, including New Progress, New Project, New Task and New User. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in The Old Reader when something happens in 5pm?
Any of The Old Reader's 12 actions, including Update folder, Update item, Update subscription and Add subscription. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from The Old Reader to 5pm?
Yes. When something happens in The Old Reader, your agent can act in 5pm too. This page covers both directions: The Old Reader's triggers and 5pm's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for 5pm or The Old Reader?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
Can my AI client use 5pm and The Old Reader without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
