How one operations builder rebuilt his Zapier workflow with Zapier MCP in a weekend

Kenny Taber already had a strong Zappy Awards submission before he ever tried Zapier MCP. In his probate support operations work, Kenny had built an email management system with the traditional Zapier approach: Zaps moved data between tools, ChatGPT categorized and summarized incoming email, Google Sheets held the backend, and Apps Script posted Slack digests so his team could see what still needed a response. The workflow was useful enough to submit for Operations AI Builder of the Year.
