Integration
Connect Productive.io and ServiceM8
When New time entry fires in Productive.io, your agent runs Add company contact in ServiceM8, or New Job in ServiceM8 to Add Comment to Deal in Productive.io. 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.

Questions
Productive.io and ServiceM8, answered
What can start an automation from Productive.io?
Any of Productive.io's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New time entry. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in ServiceM8 when something happens in Productive.io?
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 Productive.io?
Yes. When something happens in ServiceM8, your agent can act in Productive.io too. This page covers both directions: ServiceM8's triggers and Productive.io's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Productive.io 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 Productive.io 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.
