Integration
Connect Harpoon and YNAB
When New Client fires in Harpoon, your agent runs Create Transaction in YNAB, or Goal Completed in YNAB to Add Invoice in Harpoon. Describe the whole flow and it is built, tested on every scenario and kept running.
What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.
Build solutions, not workarounds.

Questions
Harpoon and YNAB, answered
What can start an automation from Harpoon?
Any of Harpoon's 9 triggers in the catalog, including New Client, New Contact, New Expense and New Expense Category. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.
What can your agent do in YNAB when something happens in Harpoon?
Any of YNAB's 4 actions, including Create Transaction, Budget to a Category, Get Current Budget Month and Get Current Month Summary. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.
Can it also run from YNAB to Harpoon?
Yes. When something happens in YNAB, your agent can act in Harpoon too. This page covers both directions: YNAB's triggers and Harpoon's actions are listed here as well.
Do I have to build a connector for Harpoon or YNAB?
No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running.
Can my AI client use Harpoon and YNAB without building an automation?
Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both.
What happens when something fails?
Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
