Integration
Connect OpenAI and ServiceM8
When New batch fires in OpenAI, your agent runs Add company contact in ServiceM8, or New Job in ServiceM8 to Create message in OpenAI. 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 OpenAI and ServiceM8 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
OpenAI and ServiceM8, answered
What can start an automation from OpenAI?
Any of OpenAI's 5 triggers in the catalog, including New batch, New file, New model and New vector store. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in ServiceM8 when something happens in OpenAI?
Any of ServiceM8's 23 actions, including Create Client, Create Job, Update client and Update job. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from ServiceM8 to OpenAI?
Yes. When something happens in ServiceM8, your agent can act in OpenAI too. This page covers both directions: ServiceM8's triggers and OpenAI's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for OpenAI or ServiceM8?
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 OpenAI and ServiceM8 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.
