Conecting AI21 generative text tech with no-code by making a Zapier integration

We integrated AI21's advanced language capabilities with Zapier and Make, two leading no-code/low-code tools designed to automate workflows across various applications. These integrations empower more 'citizen developers' to leverage AI21's state-of-the-art language models, regardless of their programming experience or expertise.

By integrating AI21's J2 Completions and the Task-Specific APIs with Zapier and Make, we bring AI21's specialized language models into the hands of more users, providing solutions to numerous language-related tasks quickly and efficiently.

So, why does this matter for AI21's potential customers?

Zapier and Make, being low-code/no-code tools, have democratized the process of creating custom workflows and automation. This means that even individuals with minimal coding skills – often referred to as 'citizen developers' – can design and build complex automation workflows. By integrating AI21's advanced language models with these tools, we're offering these 'citizen developers' a significant competitive advantage.

Imagine a customer support department of a small business looking to respond faster to customers, but facing a staffing crunch. They are using autoresponders and workflows with Zapier and similar tools today. But customers hate the canned "we'll get back to you soon." With the Contextual Answers API, the automation has a chance to send a useful reply. And if it does not, the problem can get elevated to a human being. That kind of useful decision-making integrates the best of simple boolean logic, wiring a workflow, and using the extraordinary generative text from AI21. 

Connecting AI21 APIs with the existing no-code automation and operations tools like Zapier and Make can 10x the available market for these technologies. We were surprised how quickly we were making interesting automations once we had the integration running. 

Use Zapier and Make with AI21 J2 completion model and task-specific APIs
