Connect Discourse to Direct Mail Manager
When New Post fires in Discourse, your agent runs Add address in Direct Mail Manager. 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 Discourse and Direct Mail Manager 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.
Set it up in your client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Questions
Discourse and Direct Mail Manager, answered
What can start an automation from Discourse?
Any of Discourse's 2 triggers in the catalog, including New Post and New Topic. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Direct Mail Manager when something happens in Discourse?
Any of Direct Mail Manager's 12 actions, including Update address, Update mailing list, Add address and Add address to mailing list. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Direct Mail Manager to Discourse?
Direct Mail Manager has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Discourse. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads Direct Mail Manager's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Discourse or Direct Mail Manager?
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 Discourse and Direct Mail Manager 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.
