Integration
Connect Forem and Inistate
When New article fires in Forem, your agent runs Create Entry in Inistate, or Changed Information in Inistate to Get user in Forem. 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.

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
Forem and Inistate, answered
What can start an automation from Forem?
Any of Forem's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New article. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Inistate when something happens in Forem?
Any of Inistate's 9 actions, including Create Entry, Duplicate Entry, Edit Entry and Get Activity Form. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Inistate to Forem?
Yes. When something happens in Inistate, your agent can act in Forem too. This page covers both directions: Inistate's triggers and Forem's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Forem or Inistate?
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 Forem and Inistate 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.
