Questions
Forem and Instantly, 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 Instantly when something happens in Forem?
Any of Instantly's 22 actions, including Create a New Tag, Update lead, Update Lead Status and Activate campaign. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Instantly to Forem?
Yes. When something happens in Instantly, your agent can act in Forem too. This page covers both directions: Instantly's triggers and Forem's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Forem or Instantly?
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 Instantly 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.
