It allows users to create 'Zaps,' which are automated workflows that link different apps to carry out specific tasks without needing technical skills. This platform is particularly beneficial for small to medium-sized businesses and individual professionals who want to save time on repetitive tasks. Unlike many competitors, Zapier offers a user-friendly interface that makes it easy for anyone to set up automations. The company operates on a subscription model, providing different pricing tiers based on the number of Zaps and tasks a user requires, with the goal of making automation accessible to a wider audience.
