Integration
Connect Shade and Zenlist
When Asset Updated fires in Shade, your agent runs Get chat message in Zenlist, or New and Updated Chat Messages in Zenlist to Copy a File in Shade. 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 Shade and Zenlist 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
Shade and Zenlist, answered
What can start an automation from Shade?
Any of Shade's 7 triggers in the catalog, including Asset Updated, New Asset, New Collection and New Drive. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in Zenlist when something happens in Shade?
Any of Zenlist's 13 actions, including Create a Client Invitation, Get agent, Get chat message and Get client. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from Zenlist to Shade?
Yes. When something happens in Zenlist, your agent can act in Shade too. This page covers both directions: Zenlist's triggers and Shade's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Shade or Zenlist?
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 Shade and Zenlist 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.
