Zapier

Long-term agent memory for Zapier via Hindsight. The Hindsight Zapier app adds three actions — Retain, Recall, Reflect — plus instant triggers that start a Zap when a memory event fires, so memory flows between Hindsight and 7,000+ apps.

Why this matters

Zapier connects everything: Gmail, Slack, Sheets, HubSpot, Notion, forms, and thousands more. On its own, those Zaps are stateless. With Hindsight you can:

  • Retain every closed ticket, form submission, or call summary into a memory bank
  • Recall relevant context before an AI step so the model sees prior history
  • Reflect to get a synthesized, memory-grounded answer right inside a Zap
  • Trigger a Zap the moment a memory operation completes (e.g. notify Slack when consolidation finishes)

Setup

Recommended: Hindsight Cloud

Sign up free and grab an API key — no self-hosting required.

  1. Sign up at Hindsight Cloud (free tier) or self-host
  2. Get an API key (hsk_...) from the Hindsight dashboard
  3. In Zapier, add a Hindsight step and connect your account with the API key (the API URL defaults to Hindsight Cloud; point it at your own instance for self-hosted — leave the key blank if it runs without auth)

Actions

Triggers

Instant triggers (REST Hooks) that fire when a memory event completes in a bank:

TriggerFires when
Retain CompletedAn asynchronous retain finishes processing
Consolidation CompletedMemory consolidation synthesizes observations / mental models
Memory Defense TriggeredThe memory-defense filter redacts or blocks incoming content

Example Zaps

Support assistant — a closed-ticket trigger (Zendesk) → Hindsight Retain the resolution. New ticket → Hindsight Recall similar past issues → OpenAI drafts the first reply.

Memory digest — Hindsight Consolidation Completed trigger → format the new observations → post to Slack so the team sees what the agent learned.

Daily prep — a calendar trigger → Hindsight Reflect ("What do we know about this prospect?") → append the answer to the prep doc.
