Connect Forem and UpKeep
When New article fires in Forem, your agent runs Create Purchase Order in UpKeep, or New Purchase Order in UpKeep 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.

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.

Can my AI client use Forem and UpKeep without building an automation?
