Integration
Connect Anchor and Direct Mail
When New Proposal Sent fires in Anchor, your agent runs Add or Update Contact in Direct Mail, or New Contact in Direct Mail to Create Contact in Anchor. 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
Anchor and Direct Mail, answered
What can start an automation from Anchor?
Any of Anchor's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Proposal Sent, Agreement Amended, Proposal Approved and Proposal Published. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Direct Mail when something happens in Anchor?
Any of Direct Mail's 9 actions, including Update Contact, Add or Update Contact, Find Contact and Get report. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Direct Mail to Anchor?
Yes. When something happens in Direct Mail, your agent can act in Anchor too. This page covers both directions: Direct Mail's triggers and Anchor's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Anchor or Direct Mail?
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 Anchor and Direct Mail 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.
