Cognigy vs Zapier

Analytics over conversations across every channel, for measuring how the agents are actually performing.

Turns a company's own documents into answers its agents can give, rather than scripted replies.

The human-side workspace: an omnichannel console where staff pick up conversations the AI agents hand over.

Carries Cognigy's agents onto the phone channel with low-latency, lifelike speech.

Adds visual, app-like steps inside a voice or chat conversation, so a caller can complete a form mid-call.

Platform for building customer-service AI agents and putting them on every channel: Knowledge AI grounds them in a company's own material, Agent Copilot assists the human, Voice Gateway carries them onto the phone, and Insights reports what they did.

Simulates conversations and evaluates AI-agent performance before production deployment.

Monitors and assures production AI-agent operations for enterprises running Cognigy.AI agents.

Zapier Canvas is an AI-powered diagramming tool for mapping business processes and turning the diagram into working automation. Zapier says it uses AI to generate workflows, suggest next steps, and surface insights that help optimise automations and prevent breakages.

Zapier Chatbots is a no-code builder for custom-branded AI chatbots that can be embedded in a website to handle customer interactions. Zapier positions it as a way to scale support and generate leads, with the chatbot able to trigger Zapier workflows off the conversation.

An assistant that works across every Zapier product: asked in plain language to add a field to a table or a step to a Zap, it walks the user through the change or makes it for them.

AI agents that act across the applications Zapier already connects, built and debugged from a prompt with Zapier Copilot.

AI Guardrails by Zapier adds inline AI safety and compliance checks to Zapier workflows. Added as a step to any Zap, Agent or Zapier MCP workflow, it scans content for personally identifiable information, toxic language, prompt injection attempts and negative sentiment, then routes, blocks or escalates based on what it finds.

AI by Zapier is Zapier's built-in tool for adding AI steps to a workflow, powered by the user's choice of model from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google. Users write text prompts to perform tasks such as extracting lead data from unstructured text or answering routing questions inside a Zap.

Zapier SDK gives coding agents and developers authenticated, governed programmatic access to Zapier's app catalogue from code, on behalf of their users. Zapier handles OAuth flows, token management and retries; the SDK ships with a CLI for exploring apps and running actions from the terminal.

The workflow layer Zapier's AI products run on: multi-step Zaps that connect over 9,000 apps and can call AI steps, agents and MCP tools inside a run, built without a developer.
