Connect DevCycle to OpenAlex
When New Feature Created fires in DevCycle, your agent runs Classify text topics in OpenAlex. 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.
What do you want DevCycle and OpenAlex to do together?
Ask the assistant
Connect your AI client
Give your AI client this address.
https://mcp.apiant.aiOne connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

Questions
DevCycle and OpenAlex, answered
What can start an automation from DevCycle?
Any of DevCycle's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Feature Created. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in OpenAlex when something happens in DevCycle?
Any of OpenAlex's 7 actions, including Classify text topics, Find entities by autocomplete, Get funder and Get publisher. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from OpenAlex to DevCycle?
OpenAlex has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in DevCycle. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads OpenAlex's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for DevCycle or OpenAlex?
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 DevCycle and OpenAlex 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.
