Zapier is an app that helps you automate workflows by connecting the apps and online services you use. Imagine all the apps you use for work talking to each other. Zapier connects 5,000+ apps so the conversation flows - automatically. Zapier allows you to automate tasks, and can lessen the need to do manual work, or hiring someone to manage time consuming tasks for you!

To give an example, Zapier can automatically send out a custom text right after a customer as been created. Or, maybe that information could be sent to your Mailchimp instead, to keep track of who's on your mailing list! You can think of these automated tasks as creating a “Zap” - an automated workflow that consist of a trigger and one or more actions, between one of your apps to another. When you set up and activate a new Zap, it will run every time the trigger event occurs. To get back to that example: let’s say you set a Zap for a custom text that goes out for every new customer added in MioCommerce. In this case, the new customer being added is the trigger event and the custom text is the automated action that follows.
