Quick Setup (< 1 hour for most automations)

Use Zapier when you want to automate repetitive work without writing code. It connects thousands of apps—like Gmail, Slack, Notion, HubSpot, and Stripe—so you can pass data between them and trigger actions automatically. It’s useful for marketing teams automating lead handoffs, founders gluing together SaaS tools, or operations teams streamlining back-office workflows. Strong cases include sending leads from forms into CRMs, automating invoices, or posting updates to chat apps when new data arrives.
