Connect Motion to MaintainX
When New Comment fires in Motion, your agent runs Create Work Order Comment in MaintainX. 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.

Questions
Motion and MaintainX, answered
What can start an automation from Motion?
Any of Motion's 4 triggers in the catalog, including New Comment, New or Updated Task, New Project and New Task. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in MaintainX when something happens in Motion?
Any of MaintainX's 26 actions, including Create Work Order Comment, Create Work Request, Update Purchase order and Update Work Order Status. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from MaintainX to Motion?
MaintainX has no triggers in the catalog today, so automations start in Motion. If you need the other direction, ask: your agent reads MaintainX's API documentation and adds it.
Do I have to build a connector for Motion or MaintainX?
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 Motion and MaintainX 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.
