Integration
Connect RescueTime and Shade
When New Alert fires in RescueTime, your agent runs Copy a File in Shade, or Asset Updated in Shade to Log a Highlight Event in RescueTime. 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
RescueTime and Shade, answered
What can start an automation from RescueTime?
Any of RescueTime's 5 triggers in the catalog, including New Alert, New Daily Summary Report, New FocusTime Session End and New FocusTime Session Start. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Shade when something happens in RescueTime?
Any of Shade's 7 actions, including Create Folder, Copy a File, Find an Asset and Get Public Links for a File or Folder. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Shade to RescueTime?
Yes. When something happens in Shade, your agent can act in RescueTime too. This page covers both directions: Shade's triggers and RescueTime's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for RescueTime or Shade?
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 RescueTime and Shade 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.
