A Zap in Zapier: a trigger, then steps that run in order, some of which may call a model. This describes a kind of platform, on Zapier's Free plan, not anyone's account. Zapier, which runs the Zap, sees everything it handles, and the fit has no field for that. Checked against Zapier's documentation on 22 October 2026.

Off for up to
15 minutes

Most triggers poll the app for new data, every 15 minutes on the Free plan, 2 on Professional and 1 on Team and Enterprise, so work may wait that long before the Zap sees it. Instant triggers and Schedule by Zapier start sooner. Say PT2M or PT1M on a paid plan. https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496244568589-How-Zap-triggers-work https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496288648461

Runs steps as
code

A Zap's steps run in the order set up, the same way every time. A step that asks a model is a step an AI decides, so it counts under calls, not agents. https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496244568589-How-Zap-triggers-work

AI from
none

No agent runs over the account: each AI step sees only what the Zap passes it.

Can call
any company

Holds
nothing

Zapier keeps no folders. Files and notes live in the apps a Zap connects, which a workflow draws as connectors.
