Zapier has embraced AI as a core capability, offering AI-powered features including natural language workflow creation (describe what you want automated and Zapier builds the workflow), AI actions within workflows (summarization, classification, data extraction using LLMs), and Chatbots (no-code AI chatbot builder). Zapier Central is the company's AI agent platform, where users can create autonomous AI assistants that monitor triggers and take actions across connected apps.
