The Zap Guesser lets you generate a suggested Zap and a pre-filled URL to the Zapier editor by submitting a simple description of the workflow you want to automate. This is ideal for building AI-driven Zap recommendations based on user input.
You can leverage the Workflow Element for a no-code, visual experience that integrates directly into your app or site, or you can use the API to programmatically generate Zap suggestions based on a user’s prompts or prompts generated from a user’s activity.

​
