At Zapier, we're constantly impressed with what you've accomplished with automation, from fighting climate change to launching new businesses. But if you're just starting with automation, it's hard to imagine how that's possible without seeing how the pieces work together first. And for power automators, it's more important than ever to understand how your Zaps, apps, data, and people work together as you scale your business.
That's why we're excited to introduce Zapier Canvas—an AI-powered diagramming tool that helps you visualize, plan, and automate business-critical processes.
Zapier Canvas is in alpha, which means it's a very early version of the final product. It's available through Zapier Early Access.
From static to automatic
You often show a diagram when explaining something complex to your team, planning a new process, or mapping out a customer journey. Zapier Canvas is an automation-oriented diagramming tool designed to take action.
With Canvas, you can skip the trial and error of tinkering. Plan potential workflows with Zaps, Tables, and Interfaces—and get AI-powered recommendations on what to automate next. Once you've ironed out a suitable workflow, you can immediately transform your plan into an automated solution that powers your work forward.
Here's what you can do with Zapier Canvas:
Plan workflows confidently. Zapier's existing integrations, built-in tools, and products are baked into Canvas, so you can sketch processes knowing what's available in your toolkit.
Visualize entire processes, not just Zaps. Canvas goes beyond a Zap planning tool and helps you demystify processes for your team. Add spots where you need human intervention, link Tables to store data, and connect to existing Zaps and Interfaces pages.
Share, collaborate, and refine your plans. Collaborate with teammates to plan solutions with Zaps, Tables, and Interfaces—and even share with stakeholders to get buy-in.
Take the most efficient course of action. When you're ready to start automating, AI transforms your plan into a drafted Zap that will achieve your goal most efficiently.
Discover more automation opportunities with AI. Get recommendations on what to automate next based on the apps you use and what you've already automated.
