Description of Zapier
Zapier is a workflow automation service that links web applications without code. A user picks a trigger in one app, adds one or more actions in others, and the resulting workflow, called a Zap, runs on its own. The company says it connects more than 9,000 apps, which covers common business tools such as Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Teams, Zendesk and Jira.
The product has grown beyond simple two-step links. Zapier now offers Tables for storing data that workflows read and update, Forms for collecting input that starts a workflow, Canvas for planning automations with AI, Agents for building AI assistants, Chatbots for answering customer questions, and an MCP server that lets AI chat tools take actions in connected apps. A Copilot assistant helps build Zaps from a plain-language description.
Billing is based on tasks, and the pricing page says AI steps, code and the SDK now follow the same task-based model. The Free plan is free forever with 100 tasks a month, unlimited Zaps, Tables and Forms, and two-step Zaps. Professional is listed as starting from $19.99 per month and adds multi-step Zaps, premium apps, webhooks and AI fields. Team starts from $69 per month with 25 users, shared Zaps and SAML single sign-on. Enterprise is priced on request.
The page does not show whether the lowest prices are for monthly or yearly payment. A selector offers both and says yearly billing saves 33 percent, so confirm the monthly rate at checkout. Zapier states SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3, GDPR and CCPA compliance.
