Laxis Zapier integrationAutomate Laxis with Zapier.

The Laxis Zapier integration comes down to 1 trigger, 0 actions and 0 searches: each new meeting summary in Laxis can start a Zap that acts in another app. The trigger is instant, and the app works on the free plan. Here is what it does, what it costs and what to expect.

Overview

What the Laxis Zapier integration does

Laxis records meetings, transcribes them and helps you work with them through AI tools. On Zapier it exposes a single event: a new summary. Each time Laxis creates one, Zapier hears about it at once and passes it to the app of your choice. You set this up once, as a Zap.

One trigger, but several useful results, all built on New Summary. The summary where people actually read: the Zap passes it to the tool your team already opens every day. A record kept in a second place: each summary is copied to wherever your notes are stored. Only the meetings that matter: a filter after the trigger keeps the summaries that meet your condition and drops the rest.

Now the limits. Laxis offers no action and no search on Zapier: a Zap cannot start a recording, edit a summary or look anything up in Laxis. It reads from Laxis and writes elsewhere, nothing more, so every task it bills is spent in the other app. And summaries created before the Zap was switched on are never sent.

The good side: the trigger is instant, so even on the free plan nothing waits for a 15-minute check. To compare Zapier with other tools before building, see our Zapier review and Make vs Zapier.

Vocabulary

Zapier vocabulary for this page

Six terms come back on this page. Each one is defined here once, in plain English.

Zap
The automation you build on Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
Trigger
The event that starts the Zap. For Laxis, there is one: New Summary, when a new meeting summary is created.
Action
What the Zap does once started: the step that writes, sends or moves something. With Laxis, it always runs in another app.
Task
The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan allowance counts those and nothing else.
Polling vs instant
A polling trigger is checked on a timer; an instant one is reported by the app right away. The Laxis trigger is instant.
Filter
A step that lets the Zap continue only when what arrived meets the condition you set, and stops it otherwise.
Cost

What a Laxis Zap really costs

Laxis is not reserved for paid plans, so the free plan can use it. You pay in tasks, and only successful actions create them.

  • Free plan100 tasks a month, unlimited Zaps
  • Zap size on free2 steps: one trigger, one action
  • Paid plan requiredNo, Laxis works on the free plan
  • Trigger typeInstant, no polling interval

The Laxis side is free: the trigger never costs a task, and Laxis has no action to bill. What counts is the action in the other app, once per successful run; a failed action costs nothing. On the free plan, a Zap holds one trigger and one action, which fits the simplest Laxis setup: a summary here, one step there. Add a filter or a second action and the Zap becomes multi-step, which needs a paid plan. The interval grid below does not apply to Laxis, since its trigger is instant.

Connect

Connect your Laxis account

  1. 01

    Open your apps

    Go to the Apps page of your Zapier account and click + Add connection. A connection is your Laxis account linked once, then reused by every Zap that starts from it.

  2. 02

    Pick Laxis

    In the dialog that appears, type Laxis in the search box, select it in the list of results, then click Add connection. A new browser tab opens on the Laxis side.

  3. 03

    Sign in and allow access

    Sign in to Laxis in that tab and grant Zapier access. You need an account on the app, plus access to any meeting you do not own and want the Zap to pick up.

First Zap

Your first Laxis Zap

GoalWhen Laxis creates a new meeting summary, keep only the ones that meet your condition and send them to another app.

  1. 01

    Set the trigger

    Create a Zap, choose Laxis as the app and New Summary as the trigger event, then select the Laxis connection you just made.

  2. 02

    Test on real summaries

    Run the test: Zapier brings back the three most recent summaries of the connected account. Pick one that looks like the ones you want to send.

  3. 03

    Add a filter

    Add a Filter step and set the field to look at, the rule and the value to compare with. Pick a text rule for text and a number rule for numbers.

  4. 04

    Add the action elsewhere

    Add the action in the other app and map the summary into its fields. This is the only step of the Zap that consumes a task when it succeeds.

  5. 05

    Test, then publish

    Test each step and read what came back, then publish the Zap to switch it on. With the filter, this Zap is multi-step and needs a paid plan.

Triggers

Laxis trigger

1 event starts a Zap when something happens in Laxis, and one of them is instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.

1

New Summary

Instant trigger

In Zapier“Triggers when a new summary is created.”

The single entry point of Laxis on Zapier: the Zap starts each time Laxis creates a new summary of a meeting, and the summary travels to the next step. Everything a Laxis Zap can do begins with this event.

How it fires
the app tells Zapier the moment it happens, so the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan
When to use it
when the summary of a meeting should reach other people or another tool without anyone copying and pasting it after the call.
Watch out
every new summary starts a run, and each run bills the action in the other app; if only some meetings matter, a filter right after the trigger sorts them, and it makes the Zap multi-step.
When it breaks

When a Laxis Zap breaks

Zapier attaches no help article and no documented limit to Laxis. What can go wrong comes from how Zapier works in general.

  • Older summaries never come through

    A Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. Summaries created before stay in Laxis; moving that history is a separate job.
  • A sudden burst gets held back

    When a trigger suddenly returns a huge batch, after a bulk operation or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold it back instead of running everything.
  • The filter never lets anything through

    Filter rules are typed: a text rule only works on text and a number rule only on numbers. Picking the wrong one is why a filter never passes.

FAQ

Laxis Zapier integration: FAQ

01Is the Laxis Zapier integration free?
Yes. Laxis is not reserved for paid plans, so the free plan can use it, with 100 tasks a month and unlimited Zaps. The free plan builds two-step Zaps, one trigger and one action, which is exactly the simplest Laxis setup: New Summary, then one action in another app. As soon as you add a filter or a second action, the Zap turns multi-step and needs a paid plan. The app that receives the summary must also be available on your plan.
02How many tasks does a Laxis Zap use?
One per successful action, per run, and none on the Laxis side. The New Summary trigger never costs a task, and Laxis has no action on Zapier, so what you pay for is the step in the other app. A Zap with one action bills one task for each new summary. If it sends the summary to two places, that is two tasks per summary. An action that fails is not counted against your plan.
03Does the Laxis integration work in real time?
Yes. New Summary is an instant trigger: Laxis tells Zapier the moment a new summary is created, and the Zap starts right away, whatever your plan. The polling grid, every 15 minutes on Free down to 1 minute on Team and Enterprise, does not apply to it. Whether a trigger is instant is set by the app itself, not by a Zapier setting, and the editor shows a lightning bolt on Zaps built on such a trigger.
04What does it take to connect Laxis to Zapier?
A Laxis account, plus access to any meeting you do not own and want the Zap to pick up. Connecting takes three moves: open the Apps page in Zapier and click + Add connection, search for Laxis and confirm with Add connection, then sign in to Laxis in the new tab and grant access. Once connected, the same connection serves every Zap that starts from Laxis, so you only do this once.
05Why are older Laxis summaries missing from the Zap?
Because a Zap only reacts to what happens after it is switched on. New Summary sends the summaries Laxis creates once the Zap is published; the ones that already existed stay in Laxis and are never pushed to the other app. When you test the trigger, Zapier does bring back the three most recent summaries, but only so you can map the fields on a real example. Moving the backlog is a separate job.
06What if the Laxis operation you need is not listed?
Then Zapier does not offer it for Laxis today. New Summary is the complete visible list: no action, no search. A Zap cannot start a recording or change a summary from another app. The usual answer is to start from New Summary and do the rest in other apps, filtering what you do not need. If a step is truly missing, no setting in the editor adds it; the app page on zapier.com shows the current list.
07Zapier, Make or n8n for Laxis?
It depends on the criterion, not on a winner. On Zapier, Laxis comes with one instant trigger and a three-move connection, and a two-step Zap fits the free plan. If you need more than receiving summaries, check what each tool offers for Laxis before choosing, since Zapier only exposes this one event. If cost per run matters most, compare how each tool bills: Zapier counts every successful action as a task.
