Zapier

No-code automation and AI agents that connect your apps and workflows.

Overview

Zapier is a no-code automation and AI platform built for marketers, small businesses, and operations teams. It connects thousands of apps into automated workflows, with AI steps, agents, and chatbots on top, so you can automate repetitive work without writing code.

Key Features

Zapier centers on Zaps, automated workflows where a trigger in one app sets off actions in others. You can add filters, paths, formatters, and delays to build conditional logic, and many of these utility steps don’t count against your tasks. The free plan covers two-step Zaps with 100 tasks a month, plus Zapier Tables and Forms.

Professional unlocks multi-step Zaps, webhooks, premium app integrations, and AI fields, while Team adds shared Zaps, folders, and app connections for up to 25 users plus SSO. Zapier Agents and Chatbots are available as separate add-ons, and Zapier MCP lets AI assistants connect to your apps on Free, Professional, and Team plans.

Our take


Figma is the industry standard for collaborative design, and its AI tools make it more useful than ever for marketing and product teams. The Professional plan is strong value for small teams. The trade-offs are a seat system that makes budgeting tricky, a big jump to Organization pricing, and AI credits that heavy Figma Make users can burn through quickly.
