Connect Buildin.AI to OpenVan

Questions
Buildin.AI and OpenVan, answered
What can start an automation from Buildin.AI?
Any of Buildin.AI's 2 triggers in the catalog, including Database Item Created and Page Updated. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in OpenVan when something happens in Buildin.AI?
Any of OpenVan's 18 actions, including Calculate route cost, Check visa requirement, Compare food prices and Find news stories. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from OpenVan to Buildin.AI?
OpenVan has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Buildin.AI. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads OpenVan's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Buildin.AI or OpenVan?
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 Buildin.AI and OpenVan 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.
