AI Features Overview
AI features help you build faster by generating workflows, forms, and integrations from natural language descriptions.
Available AI Features
Workflow Generation
Describe what you want, get a working workflow:
- "Send Slack notification when form is submitted"
- "Sync new Stripe customers to Airtable"
- "Email weekly reports every Monday"
Form Generation
Create forms from descriptions:
- "Contact form with name, email, and message"
- "Event registration with date selection"
- "Customer feedback survey"
API Import
Import APIs with AI assistance:
- Paste API documentation
- AI extracts endpoints
- Auto-generates actions
Smart Suggestions
AI helps while you build:
- Suggested next steps
- Error explanations
- Optimization tips
How It Works
1. Describe Your Goal
Enter a natural language description:
When a new user signs up, send them a
welcome email and notify the sales team
2. AI Generates
The AI analyzes your request and creates:
- Appropriate nodes
- Correct connections
- Initial configuration
3. Review & Customize
Generated output is a starting point:
- Review the structure
- Adjust settings
- Add missing details
4. Test & Deploy
Finish as normal:
- Test the workflow
- Make refinements
- Publish when ready
AI Models
Available Models
| Model | Best For | Speed | |-------|----------|-------| | GPT-4 | Complex workflows | Slower | | GPT-3.5 | Simple tasks | Faster | | Claude | Detailed explanations | Medium |
Choosing a Model
- Quick tasks: GPT-3.5 (faster, fewer credits)
- Complex automation: GPT-4 (more accurate)
- Explanations: Claude (better reasoning)
Credit System
AI features consume credits:
| Action | Credits | |--------|---------| | Generate workflow | 5-20 | | Generate form | 3-10 | | API import | 5-15 | | Suggestions | 1-2 |
Credits vary by complexity and model.
Best Practices
Writing Good Prompts
Be specific:
Bad: "Make a notification workflow"
Good: "When a form is submitted, send the
submitter's email and name to #submissions
channel in Slack"
Include details:
- What triggers it
- What data to use
- Where to send output
Iterating
Start simple, then refine:
- Generate basic structure
- Test and identify gaps
- Add specifics manually
- Re-generate if needed
Understanding Limitations
AI generation works best for:
- Common patterns
- Well-documented services
- Clear requirements
May need manual work for:
- Complex business logic
- Custom integrations
- Edge cases
Privacy & Security
Data Handling
- Prompts sent to AI providers
- No workflow data in prompts
- Results not stored by AI
Sensitive Information
Avoid including in prompts:
- API keys or passwords
- Personal data
- Confidential business logic
