Questions
Captivate and Crunchbase, answered
What can start an automation from Captivate?
Any of Captivate's 1 trigger in the catalog, including On Change of Episode Status. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Crunchbase when something happens in Captivate?
Any of Crunchbase's 7 actions, including Find acquisitions, Find entities by autocomplete, Find funding rounds and Find organizations. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Crunchbase to Captivate?
Crunchbase has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Captivate. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Crunchbase's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Captivate or Crunchbase?
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 Captivate and Crunchbase without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in Crunchbase 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.
