New Feature / Update: AI Orchestration in Zapier
Zapier has just rolled out a fascinating new feature called AI orchestration. Essentially, what this means is that you can now use artificial intelligence to streamline and control complex workflows across your applications. This takes the existing no-code capabilities of Zapier up a notch, allowing users to integrate AI into their automation processes without needing to write any code.
Why does it matter?
For marketers, this is golden. Imagine automating a marketing funnel where the AI helps sort leads, responds to initial inquiries, and even suggests the best type of content to send next—all based on user behaviour. It’s like having a quiet, unassuming assistant who makes sure no lead slips through the cracks. Or think about a small business owner managing multiple customer interactions across different platforms. With AI orchestration, they can create workflows that pull data and responses from social media, email, and chat in one seamless flow. It’s a bit like being at a café—place your order, and the barista does all the work while you sit back and enjoy the atmosphere, but here, the AI does all the heavy lifting.
As someone who’s often a bit hesitant about new tech, I can’t help but feel that this could really simplify things for many of us. There’s always that nagging voice of doubt—what if it doesn’t work as promised? But isn’t that part of the dance in technology? Sometimes, we have to embrace the unknown like we embrace a pleasantly surprising new dish on a menu, wondering whether it will be delightful or just plain odd. The prospect of freeing up time and mental energy is worth a shot, don’t you think?
