In their own words
Zapier
Zapier connects apps through automated workflows called Zaps. Each Zap starts with a trigger and carries out one or more actions; a task counts when a successful action moves data or completes work. The service offers automation across more than 9,000 apps, with multi-step workflows, conditional logic and webhook triggers. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 100 tasks per month, unlimited Zaps limited to two steps, one user and a 15-minute polling interval. Polling for new data does not count toward tasks, but successful actions do. Without pay-per-task billing, workflows pause at the task limit until the next usage period. Professional starts at $19.99 per month and Team starts at $69.00 per month; both offer free trials. Team includes 25 users and shared Zaps, folders and app connections. Annual billing has a lower monthly fee, with a 33% saving shown in the pricing selector. Zapier is web-based and headquartered in San Francisco, California.
