Questions
Close and Quaderno, answered
What can start an automation from Close?
Any of Close's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Contact in Contact Smart View, New Lead in Smart View and New Note. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Quaderno when something happens in Close?
Any of Quaderno's 24 actions, including Create Contact, Create Estimate, Create Expense and Create Invoice. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Quaderno to Close?
Yes. When something happens in Quaderno, your agent can act in Close too. This page covers both directions: Quaderno's triggers and Close's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Close or Quaderno?
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 Close and Quaderno 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.
