      Zapier provides automation service between different platforms, such as “if it rains tomorrow, send me an alert to take an umbrella”

      Used to be quite popular a few years ago, maybe not so much nowadays

      It’s comparable to IFTTT or (now defunct) Yahoo Pipes. “Event on service A triggers action on service B” type stuff.

      For example, I use Zapier for things like webhooks on Discord: watching an RSS feed and having it post new updates into a Discord channel.

      You could just as easily have it watch, say, a weather site for area and push that to your email (or Pushover account, etc). Or alert you that an item you want is on sale. And so on.

    Never heard of either, but “make” is about the worst possible name you could give any kind of product.
