Questions
Act! and Grain, answered
What can start an automation from Act!?
Any of Act!'s 4 triggers in the catalog, including Contact Updated, New Company, New Contact and New Opportunity. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Grain when something happens in Act!?
Any of Grain's 22 actions, including Create Clip, Create Playlist, Update Clip and Update Playlist. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Grain to Act!?
Yes. When something happens in Grain, your agent can act in Act! too. This page covers both directions: Grain's triggers and Act!'s actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Act! or Grain?
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 Act! and Grain 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.
