Different problems, different solutions
Zapier is excellent at connecting apps and triggering automated workflows. If you need "when X happens in App A, do Y in App B," Zapier is purpose-built for that.
SendToTeam solves a different problem: you need work done, but you don't want to build the workflow yourself. Instead of designing a Zap with triggers, filters, and actions, you tell an AI employee what you need in plain English, and they figure out how to do it.
When to choose Zapier
Zapier is the better choice when you:
- Need simple app-to-app data transfers (CRM → spreadsheet, form → email)
- Want trigger-based automation that runs identically every time
- Need to connect to very specific apps from Zapier's 5,000+ catalog
- Have a technical team comfortable building and maintaining Zaps
When to choose SendToTeam
SendToTeam is the better choice when you:
- Need judgment-based work (analysis, writing, research, outreach)
- Don't want to build or maintain workflows
- Want a human approval step before anything goes out
- Need employees who learn your business over time
- Want to delegate, not automate
Can you use both?
Absolutely. Many teams use Zapier for simple data routing and SendToTeam for higher-judgment work. They're complementary, not competing.
