Zapier CEO @wadefoster says remote companies have an advantage in the AI era, becuase "every last bit of work exhaust is documented," which supercharges internal AI and accelerates people's work: "All our stuff is inside Slack. All our meetings are recorded. Every last inch of work that happens, there is a written trace of that." "So we can put chatbots on top of that, and that creates a whole bunch of institutional knowledge that accelerates the work." "So a new person coming in can literally figure out, 'Is there a standard operating procedure for this?' And you don't have to go chase people down in offices and sort of hope the campfire wisdom finds you." "Remote companies have a big advantage because they do tend to have so much work that leaves a digital exhaust." From his appearance on the show in April.

we reverse engineered how zapier became the #1# recommended automation tool in AI search 22% citation share. more than n8n and make combined. everyone talks about their google SEO (9M+ monthly visits). but heres what actually makes them win in AI search: > a dedicated page for every app integration combo. "connect gmail to slack." "connect stripe to airtable." 8,000+ apps means thousands of pages. when someone asks chatgpt "how do i automatically send form submissions to a google sheet and slack" zapier has an exact page for that. > they were first to frame automation as AI agents. zapier now leads with "AI agents and chatbots" not just "connect apps." when someone asks "tool to build AI agents that can use my existing apps" zapier gets cited #1#. > comparison pages they wrote first and control. "zapier vs make vs n8n" — they wrote it, they rank, they get cited on both chatgpt and gemini. > they turned integrations into a content moat. every new app that joins = hundreds of new pages = hundreds of new queries they can get cited on. chatgpt cited them on 6 out of 18 prompts. gemini on 3 out of 17. the playbook: they didnt just build the most integrations. they made sure every integration had a page the AI could cite. 8,000 integrations = 8,000 answers to questions ppl ask chatgpt.

So our AI VP Revenue “10K" kept pushing up yesterday to use less Zapier and just push data into and across our other systems itself. It said “I’ll just be your harness and handle it all myself.” We didn’t agree, but man, sure felt like Agents want to build fiefdoms. Workflows might be the new headcount (for agents), The more workflows you control, the more power.

We are replacing 𝜏³-Banking with AutomationBench-AA, featuring broader business workflows across applications In collaboration with Zapier, we run the held-out test set of 657 tasks, using the v1.0.6 version of the benchmark. We call our implementation AutomationBench-AA because we award partial credit for completed objectives, with any guardrail violation reducing the task’s score to zero Its 657 tasks span Finance, HR, Marketing, Operations, Sales, and Support. Agents work across simulated business applications and discover the relevant APIs to complete each task. For each task, we measure the share of objectives completed. Any guardrail violation gives that task a score of zero. ‘Score’ averages these task scores across all 657 workflows and is the metric used in the Intelligence Index. ‘Tasks Completed’ separately reports the share of workflows where every objective is completed without a guardrail violation GPT-6 Astra (max) scores 68.5%, compared with 66.7% for Grok 4.6 (high) and 62.2% for GLM-5.3 (max). Astra (max) completes every objective without a guardrail violation on 41.6% of workflows, compared with 32.1% for Claude Fable 5.1 (max with fallback) and 28.3% for Claude Opus 5 (max). Completing every objective while respecting all guardrails remains harder than completing part of a workflow

2nd AutomationBench update of the day🔥 We ran Gemini 3.8 Flash across 600+ real business tasks, and found it's Google's best Flash model yet for Ops and Marketing workflows Available soon in Zapier
