Questions
Grist and PDF.co, answered
What can start an automation from Grist?
Any of Grist's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New or Updated Record, New or Updated Record (Instant), New Record and New Record (Instant). Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in PDF.co when something happens in Grist?
Any of PDF.co's 28 actions, including Add Barcode to PDF, Add Form Field to PDF, Add Image to PDF and Add Text to PDF. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from PDF.co to Grist?
PDF.co has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Grist. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads PDF.co's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Grist or PDF.co?
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 Grist and PDF.co 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.
