The platform includes Zaps (automated workflows), Tables (workflow-integrated databases), Forms (automated input capture), Canvas (AI-powered workflow planning), and Functions (custom code integration). Whether you're in sales, marketing, customer support, IT, or operations, Zapier provides the tools to eliminate manual work and scale your team's productivity. With Zapier MCP, you can even connect AI agents to thousands of apps code-free, making it the central hub for AI orchestration in modern businesses.
