Integration
Connect Grain and PubNub
When New Playlist fires in Grain, your agent runs Publish Message in PubNub, or New Message on Channel in PubNub to Add Recording to Playlist in Grain. 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 Grain and PubNub 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
Grain and PubNub, answered
What can start an automation from Grain?
Any of Grain's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Playlist, New Upload, Recording Added and Story Added. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in PubNub when something happens in Grain?
Any of PubNub's 9 actions, including Send signal, Update channel metadata, Update user metadata and Get channel metadata. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from PubNub to Grain?
Yes. When something happens in PubNub, your agent can act in Grain too. This page covers both directions: PubNub's triggers and Grain's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Grain or PubNub?
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 Grain and PubNub 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.
