Lives where you talk
Beagle is a teammate in Slack and Microsoft Teams, not a tab you switch to. It reads the channels it is invited to and answers in the thread.
Zapier runs the rules you write. Beagle brings judgment - it reads the room, decides what matters, drafts the work, and asks before it acts instead of firing a fixed zap.
Zapier is a automation platform. Connects thousands of apps with triggers and automated steps. Here is where the two part ways.
| Zapier | Beagle | |
|---|---|---|
| Where it lives | Background automations and a builder. | Slack and Microsoft Teams, as a teammate. |
| Reads your channels | The triggers you configure. | Every channel it is invited to, scoped to what each teammate can see. |
| Takes initiative | Runs the zaps you set up. | Pipes up unprompted when something needs you. |
| Acts across your tools | Across thousands of apps. | Drafts and does the work across ~2,700 connected apps. |
| Learns your team | Static rules, no memory. | Remembers your tone, your people and what you decided. |
| Asks before acting | Fires automatically once live. | Always waits for your nod before anything goes out. |
| Pricing | Per task. | Per seat, not per token. Free for one seat. |
