Questions
Direct Mail and Fergus, answered
What can start an automation from Direct Mail?
Any of Direct Mail's 3 triggers in the catalog, including New Contact, Updated Contact and Sent Campaign. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Fergus when something happens in Direct Mail?
Any of Fergus's 31 actions, including Create Customer, Create Job, Create Site and Update Contact. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Fergus to Direct Mail?
Fergus has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Direct Mail. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Fergus's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Direct Mail or Fergus?
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 Direct Mail and Fergus 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.
