Otofi Zapier integrationAutomate Otofi with Zapier.
The Otofi Zapier integration gives you 4 triggers and 1 action, and no search. Every trigger is instant: an ended call, a new contact, a form filled during a call or a warm lead can start a Zap, and one action sends a calendar invite by email.
Beta app Zapier still marks this integration as beta.

What the Otofi Zapier integration actually does
Otofi is an AI calling platform that handles lead outreach, scheduling and follow-ups. Connected to Zapier, it reports four moments of a calling campaign to your other tools, and it can send a calendar invite by email when another app asks for one. It is still flagged as a beta app on Zapier.
Three results you can build. A warm lead that reaches sales: New Warm Lead starts the Zap, and an action in your CRM or team chat hands the lead to a person before it cools down. A call log that fills itself: Call Ended starts the Zap after each call, and a spreadsheet action keeps a trace of it. A meeting booked from another tool: a booking or a signed form elsewhere starts the Zap, and Create Calendar Invite emails the invite.
Good news for a free plan: all four triggers are instant. None of them waits for a timed check, so speed costs nothing extra here.
What Zapier does not do with Otofi. There is no search step, so a Zap cannot look up an existing contact or call before acting. There is no action to create a contact, start a call or update a lead either: Otofi talks out, and only takes invites in. And since the app is in beta on Zapier, its operations may still change.

Zapier words, in plain English
Seven words carry this whole page. Read them once and the rest flows.
- Zap
- An automation you build in Zapier: one trigger, then one or more actions that run every time the trigger event happens.
- Trigger
- The event in an app that starts the Zap, like a call ending in Otofi. Once the Zap is on, Zapier waits for it.
- Action
- What the Zap does once started: the step that writes, sends or moves something for you, like emailing an invite.
- Task
- The unit Zapier bills: one action your Zap completes successfully. Your plan allowance is counted in tasks.
- Polling vs instant
- A polling trigger is checked by Zapier on a timer. An instant trigger is reported by the app the moment it happens, as with Otofi.
- Filter
- A step that lets the Zap carry on only when what arrived meets your condition, and stops it otherwise.
- Search step
- A step that looks up something already stored in an app so later steps can use it. Otofi offers none.
What an Otofi Zap really costs
Otofi is not a premium app, so it works from the free plan onward. You pay for actions, never for the four triggers.
- Free plan100 tasks a month, unlimited Zaps, two steps per Zap
- Otofi triggersFour, all instant, outside the interval grid
- Premium appNo, available on the free plan
- BilledEach successful action, one task
A trigger never uses a task, and Zapier waiting for calls, contacts or leads costs nothing either. Each action that goes through counts as one task, whether it is Create Calendar Invite or a step in another app. An action that fails is not billed. The free plan caps every Zap at two steps, one trigger and one action: add a filter or a second action and the Zap turns multi-step, which needs a paid plan. The interval grid below only concerns polling triggers; none of the Otofi triggers polls.
Connect your Otofi account to Zapier
- 01
Open your connections
In Zapier, go to the Apps page and click + Add connection. A connection is your Otofi account linked once to Zapier, then reused by every Otofi step across all your Zaps.
- 02
Pick Otofi
Search for Otofi in the dialog, select it and click Add connection. A new tab opens on Otofi's sign-in; use the account that runs your calling campaigns, not a spare one.
- 03
Sign in and grant access
Log in to Otofi in that tab and allow Zapier to reach the account. You need an Otofi account, plus read or write rights on anything you do not own but want a Zap to touch.
Your first Otofi Zap, step by step
GoalSend a calendar invite by email to each new warm lead that passes your condition.
- 01
Pick the trigger
Build a new Zap, choose Otofi as the app and
New Warm Leadas the event, then select your Otofi connection. No other setting is needed on this trigger. - 02
Test the trigger
Run the test. Zapier brings back the three most recent warm leads of the account, so you map the next steps on a real lead.
- 03
Add the filter
From the plus icon, add Filter: the field to check, the rule and the value. A text rule only works on text, so pick it to match the field.
- 04
Add the invite
Add Otofi again with
Create Calendar Invite, then fill the step with details mapped from the lead that started the Zap. - 05
Test, then publish
Test the action on a lead you control and check the email arrives. Then click Publish. With its filter, this Zap needs a paid plan.
The Otofi triggers
4 events start a Zap when something happens in Otofi, and 4 of them are instant: the app calls Zapier straight away, whatever your plan.
Call Ended
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when the call ended.”
Fires once a call placed through Otofi is over, which makes it the natural hook for anything that should happen after the conversation: logging, a follow-up task, a note to the account owner. Each finished call is one new Zap run.
Contact Created
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when there's a new contact.”
Starts your Zap whenever Otofi gets a new contact, before any call has necessarily taken place. It is the earliest point in the funnel you can catch from Zapier, useful to keep a second contact list in step with Otofi.
New Form Submission
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when a form is submitted through live call.”
Reacts to a form filled in during a live call, so the answers gathered on the phone travel to your other apps without retyping. This is the trigger that carries the most context out of the conversation.
New Warm Lead
Instant triggerIn Zapier“Triggers when there's a new warm lead.”
Goes off when Otofi marks a lead as warm, which is the moment a salesperson usually wants to step in. Of the four triggers, this is the one that most directly turns calls into meetings.
The Otofi action
Otofi gives you 1 action. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.
Create Calendar Invite
ActionIn Zapier“Create and send an invite through email”
Creates a calendar invite and sends it by email, so a meeting set up elsewhere reaches the guest without manual scheduling. Each invite sent counts as one task.
When an Otofi Zap breaks
Zapier attaches no help article and no documented limit to Otofi. What breaks is general Zapier behavior, and it shows up in three places with this app.
Check these three before publishing. For anything else, see Zapier troubleshooting.
Existing calls and leads are not replayed
A Zap only reacts to what happens after you switch it on. Calls, contacts and warm leads already in Otofi are never picked up; moving that history is a separate job.A Zap that sets itself off
A Zap that writes into the very place its own trigger watches starts itself again and again, and burns through the task count fast. Keep the action away from what the trigger watches.A campaign burst gets held back
When a trigger suddenly sends a huge batch, after a bulk import or a migration, Zapier's flood protection can hold it back instead of running every item.
