FreemiumFree TierFeaturedAdded Mar 1, 2012

About

Zapier is the world's largest no-code automation platform, connecting 7,000+ apps through trigger-and-action workflows called Zaps. Teams use it to eliminate repetitive data-entry tasks like routing leads from forms to CRMs, syncing e-commerce orders to spreadsheets, or posting Slack alerts from support tickets. Multi-step Zaps with conditional paths and built-in AI let users build sophisticated logic without touching code. The free tier offers 100 tasks per month, making it accessible to solo founders and growing teams alike.

Origin Story

By Wade Foster

The Problem

Wade and his co-founders were tired of manually copying data between web apps and couldn't afford custom integrations as a small team.

Building It

Built the initial prototype at a Startup Weekend in Columbia, MO in 2011. Accepted into Y Combinator in 2012 and grew to profitability without VC funding.

First Customer

First paying customers came from posting in web forums and niche communities of people who described the exact integration problems Zapier solved.

What It Means

Zapier proved that the 'automation gap' between enterprise and SMB was solvable with a product-led, no-code approach.

The Dream

Give every person on earth a digital assistant that handles the boring, repetitive parts of their job automatically.
