Integration
Connect Direct Mail and Karbon
When New Contact fires in Direct Mail, your agent runs Create Organization Contact in Karbon, or New work item in Karbon to Add or Update Contact in Direct Mail. 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 Direct Mail and Karbon 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
Direct Mail and Karbon, 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 Karbon when something happens in Direct Mail?
Any of Karbon's 16 actions, including Create Organization Contact, Create Person Contact, Update client group and Update Organization Contact. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Karbon to Direct Mail?
Yes. When something happens in Karbon, your agent can act in Direct Mail too. This page covers both directions: Karbon's triggers and Direct Mail's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Direct Mail or Karbon?
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 Karbon 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.
